Rotational Play and Daycare
I'm sure this has been discussed before and I've probably asked it before but can't find a reference to it anywhere. Sorry. I am attempting rotating a few families but I really, really want one family to run a daycare. I don't care if its used for residents or homeless. I'm just wondering what happens when I leave that family and move to another? Will the daycare still run? Will I have to cancel daycare before rotating away and then start it again when I return to that household?

i have a Daycare and i keep rotating families. The Daycare runs fine when I switch. As a matter of fact I often end up playing there again, because my toddlers get teleported there when the parents go to work.
Here is my Daycare: https://kittythesnowcat.tumblr.com/search/daycare As you can see on some of these posts I was not playing the Lazol family, but I was playing another family the Paines and the twins went to the Daycare while their parents were at work. I have heard that some people have had problems with inactives not properly taking care of the kids though. I have Arsils sleeping mats, which does make the whole thing a lot easier.

Thanks KTSC, that's wonderful that it does work. I also have those sleeping mats, they're great. I love your blog and will read through it later today. It looks interesting. I've never played by rotating families before so this is new to me. I could never figure out how to write a story AND rotate to different families. So this is a new experience. Thanks

littlelambsy - Do you need to use a mod that keeps the daycare running? I would like to have a daycare so NA sims don't just keep abandoning their kids to vanish into cyber-land.
I had a sim who had a daycare and at first they ran everything fine, but once she got up to level 9 and 10 no one brought kids over, and also the daycare didn't run when I would play another family. Or if it did run there was not kids there every time. How and what do you use to keep this going?

Thanks igazor, do I have to set GoHere to Use Active Daycare for this to work?
@JohnL83... I don't have any specific mod for this, and I'm just trying to set it up and make it work for rotating family. So not sure what will happen yet when I rotate. But according to KTSC, it should work fine. If it works for her, it should work for me. Looking forward to trying it.
