Simulation ideas part 3
GEPOSTET AM 24.10.2012

school:
there would be 3 schools

elementary school and children would 1)learn skills there and 2)bring home assignments for specific classes (which you chose on the child aging up to child, from toddler). There would be events like ‘bake sale’ at the school. oh and there would be recesses for children.

middle school, tougher assignments than elementary, but not as tough as high school. and learn skills.

high school more difficult assignments and learn skills

have this idea for teens (of both genders). They can take a home Ec club(they will learn cooking and sewing in it) and as a take-home assignment they take an doll simulator home with them for the weekend or for a week (but for how long it depends on the length ie. short,normal,long, epic) . They have to take care of the doll (it will cry) and return it to the school when the time is over.

week 1 could be cooking

week 2 sewing

week 3 family?

week 4 either week 4 or 5 would be taking the doll simulator home. It could be done in two ways.

1)not a “couple” yes the active sim can have a gf/bf but I don’t mean a couple in that sense.* I will explain in number 2 The active sim will take the doll home and take care of it for a period (ie weekend).

2)the “class/club” will be paired up with someone of the opposite gender and they have to share the doll.(hard for me to explain what I’m trying too)


arranged marriage 

1.  (Historical) James and Alice are babies, their parents want them to get married when they’re Young adults. So they sign a bethoraled. When Alice is a child, Alice goes to live for the entire childhood stage with her future in-laws. When they age into teen Alice goes back to her parents’ house. They have chaperoned dates through out the teen stage.  They get married as Young Adults (if they don’t fall in love with someone else)

2. (Sleeping Beauty) James and Alice are babies their parents want them to get married when they’re young adults. They meet at school and become friends (as children). After they age up into teen, their parents tell them they’re bethored. They go out on a couple of chaperoned dates. They get married (if they don’t fall in love with someone else) as Young Adults.

3. (modern) James and Alice have dated a lot of possible future “mates” their parents set them up with. But they have said “no” to most of them and somehow either a)family member, b)matchmaker, c)friend tells James’ family about Alice.  They get together and have some chaperoned dates, and sign an agreement to get married when they’re young adults.

Simulation ideas part 2
GEPOSTET AM 24.10.2012

babies:
you can chose whether sim moms could nurse them the other way or just stick with the green glob of milk bottle. (note:sim mom who breast feed their babies are less likely to get diseases). Babies aren’t swaddled up. The have legs, and you can dress them in cute little outfits. Sim moms/dad/grandparents/older siblings can sing to them or rock them in the rocking chair. Yes bath them too.  There would be the option to give up a baby for adoption.


Toddlers you can chose to still have sim mom nurse  or if your kid is on the bottle move to a sippy cup. (they can still move to a sippy cup if you started off breasting feeding) Toddlers can steal the other’s cup/bottle. If there are twin or triplets, they have more “connection” with each other. (through out life). Also get floaties.

Children
mostly the same (expect being able to help with gardening and using the microwave and toaster and can use the stove with parents’ supervision and able to play instruments). There would be a playhouse and a play kitchen. costumes: dragon, teacher, bride, dancer). and toy cash registers that could even look from a Western movie or from modern time.

pre-teen
can have crushes, but get embarrassed by someone coming in and see them playing with “childish” things, can cook with the stove without supervision, but can only cook very simple things

teen
can get acne, sneak out, cook more fine things

Young Adult:
can go college (you can live at home or live in res, well living in res there would be cooking classes, and other how-to-live-on-your-own classes), and yes in this case YAs at college can become pregnant.

Adults can chose to take a class @ the college

Elders can also take a class @ the college


Simulation ideas
GEPOSTET AM 24.10.2012

In CAS there would be a butt slider and leg sliders. 

Oh and tooth design sliders


There would be of course clothing, but as part of clothing there would be an underclothes section. There would be a pre-teen stage (that I will explain down below)

(next part would be a bit contversy):

There would be one very special button..this button allows you have to the D word sims. If you press this button, you get access in-game to ramps,elevators and special kind of stoves, showers and compailty buildings. But if you don’t want the D word sims just don’t click on the button. (this is the only way that you could get D word sims in my version of the game if I could make one), using this would get an additional sliders that allows for hearing loss and which ear. (of course there would be an option at the start of the game whether you want to play a town with both disabled and able bodied sims or no disabled sims at all.)*

ingame:


There would be jobs of course. Journalist would be sent to “the field” to cover stuff. Polictians could actually set up and have sim elections (all the sims would go to vote for their choice), and make real decisions. Law Enforcement go around and keep the crime low? Doctors (think its fine), Military is fine (the only idea I have might not go over well.) Culinary is fine, Scientist (maybe trying to find cures for the diseases–not anything serious in my version of the game). Musicians are fine. Authors could have book signings at the book store.

*supply teacher would not be part of the Education career but the being paid would amount to how many days you were called in, in a week.

There would be a bakery, a candy store, a mall, restaurants, of course grocery store (this would have shopping cart where you’re sim can place their food and if they have a small child they can place the child in the front of the shopping cart, but there would also be little toy shopping carts too for toddler children) & book store (yes these would be non-rabitholes but for the restaurant there would be a bit of a rabbit hole, the “kitchen” is the rabbit hole. You could buy out and run them yourself you would be able to set prices, hire employees, there would be little chance cards about problems employees are having and you have to make the right descions).  examples:

“Store (any store):
Other Employees have reported that one employee, Dodger, has been embezzling money or stealing (what ever the store sells) and threatening employees. But Dodger has always been nice to you and you can’t imagine to fire him.

Choice 1)Fire them 2)Keep them but give him a warning? (if it continues company goes bankrupt) 3)lawsuit? 4) ignore”

Restaurant (but can also work with the Mall)
“A mom was in a restaurant in the dinning area with a baby and started to breastfeed the baby and another customer complained to their server of the breastfeeding being “tasteless” and the server asks the mom to leave or move to the ladies room.

Choice 1. Apologize to the mom and/or Fire Employees 2)Warn employees that behaviour is unacceptable. 3)?”

With a Pets EP and if you choose to have a town with disabled people (or made a disabled one yourself in CAS) here’s another idea

(any place service dogs allowed) the situation would be different it could either be a service dog trainer or a disabled sim.
“A disabled people was in the Grocery store with their dog and one of you’re employees told the sim they wouldn’t allowed to have dogs in the building. And the sim kept saying that they needed the dog to do X for them and its was a service dog. But the employee kept insisting the person leave.

1. Apologize to disabled person and/or fire employees 2)Give warning to employees 3)?”

 

end of examples

 

Movie theatre: get to chose what kind of snack/pop your sim want to eat/drink (or decide just to skip the snack and pop and wait until after the movie to eat).

weddings:
You can either have hire a event planner, or plan your own wedding. You would chose who would be bridesmaids, ringer bearer, flowergirl, and hire a caterer (I have another idea, that you can be a careteer or a event planner..but I still working on that). Or if you sim has parents, the sim mom could cook your wedding cake and supper, and sew the wedding dress).
