The hairstyle might be missing a flag for maternity wear.

My husband once had a sim who did not usually wear a hat spin into a hat when she spun into maternity wear.

Being in jail for beating up your teenage son doesn't prevent you from seeing said teenage son off to college, even if you still totally hate each other.

I think the parent chosen is always the one with the first instance number, if they're alive. If Mortimer Goth is dead, Bella can suddenly appear to drop Alexander off at college! I kind of wish it was the one with the highest relationship, but I'm not sure if that'd be something moddable or not.

Oh this would be wonderful. ...though I suppose in most of my sim households, it wouldn't matter because both parents would be at 100/100 BFF.

noticed several more stages in Belladonna Cove; second floor of Contender's lot, under the stairs in Green's lot.
and noticed several more awnings on the lot of Peterson's unit; over the entrances of the other units.

spiral stairs can be placed above other spiral stairs without cheats.

ran the Hood Checker program on a neighborhood with my current "hidden" sub-neighborhoods; expansions 4,5,8. if I remember correctly, the program showed stuff from each of those.

I was wondering about the stage at Carlos' house. How do I make one of those?

the stage tools are in the foundation/deck section of Build Mode; and made the same way.

I wish it could be the household adult/elder with whom the teen has the best relationship, rather than being strictly limited to parents. It always feels so wrong when orphans go off alone even though they've been living with an older sibling or foster parent, sometimes since they were toddlers. In this case, Ripp being taken to college by Olive (his foster mother) would have made much more sense than Buzz taking him. But perhaps it really was Olive, and that whole cut-scene was just Ripp dreaming of having the sort of dad who would have taken him.

Today I discovered that trying to train pet commands on even slightly sloped terrain is absolutely impossible. Cue fifteen minutes of sim and dog walking in circles around each other and taking relationship hits every time the sim yells about routing issues. I ended up moving some trees around and flattening out that part of the lot for convenience.

LuLu Lounge in Downtown is shaped like a bow tie.

It's a formal club.

Oddly enough, or not , sims can read newspaper on a community lot while using the lot. Just had Tara Kat do that in a stall at Pettina's Pet Retreat. I guess it could be depented on the sims overall personality or other traits, not on the criteria If there is such object presented on the lot.

ETA: And today, I discovered that my sim can't play football (or soccer, for fellow Americans' dictionary) when there is snow in its area.

Today I discovered that making enough friends for higher-level promotions really isn't as hard as I thought it was when I first started playing. Back then I could barely manage a household, let alone juggle more than two or three friendships. I decided it was too much work and never bothered with it again (Make Friends For Me saved my sims' careers!). Years later I've realized it's not that bad. The 'hang out' interaction even takes care of the gruntwork for me!

I learned that you cannot dupe your Sim by buying something they want to satisfy a high-aspiration point want, then immediately selling it. They'll know what you did.

Learned firsthand by losing all the aspiration meter bonuses I had gotten plus some more as punishment, and my Sim having an unique "Miss this Object" interaction/animation.

about buying objects to satisfy Wants; earliest those objects can be sold without aspiration reduction and without sims missing them I think is after the initial depreciation.
though if an object/hack has a "Delete" interaction, that interaction can be done anytime without either result.

Unless it was patched out at some point, you should be able to dupe them by putting the object in their inventory and then selling it from there.

from my understanding, selling from inventory is not in shipped version of this game. shipped version; I think only in Build/Buy.

As far as I know, selling from inventory has been possible since whatever EP added inventories.

You might want Pescado's hack.

nowhatsthis.package

No more "What's This?" and "Where did it go" actions. If they appear at all, they will not cause the sim to take any direct action.

I finally discovered what not to do for Mog's Desk Locator mod to work every time.
Yes, this is mod-related, but if it can help another simmer, why not?
The routine your sim will need is not a problem, but you must be aware. The sim has to be able to stand on the one tile left to the desk/table. 2 tile desk or table, or one tile desk or table, does not matter.
If that tile is not clear, your sim will complain that he or she cannot put their homework/college assignment down.
I won't post pictures illustrating the don't's and do's, unless you really beg me to.
You cannot put a desk against a wall, well..not its left side against the wall. The sim won't be able to reach, there is a wall there.
You cannot put a dresser, plant etc..on that left side.
Right for us when looking at the front of desk of course, left for the sim.

I redid many rooms in my dorms...lol.
