LESS free will than EA story progression?

Now this is absolutely amazing info. I wish i had this before i messed up story progression, had a sim literally unable to do anything apart from eat and sleep, and switched back to EA progression, and got one of my favorite families, (Wolf i think) broken up and evicted. Sorry i wasn't clear enough...

LESS free will than EA story progression?

I used OL as one of my main homeworlds, ever since i wanted a backstory for a sim coming from the future, and it got a bit out of hand. Wouldn't disallowing it on the town level prevent the active household from engaging in those careers as well? This is precisely the thing i'm trying to prevent. I ...

LESS free will than EA story progression?

Well i am getting constant career changes. I'm playing in Oasis Landing and not a sim day goes by without a new message coming in about someone having started on their way to stardom or beginning their acrobat career. And because Oasis Landing has scarcely any job opportunities, this means that the ...

LESS free will than EA story progression?

I wasn't entirely in the clear about what SP did and didn't do. I wasn't decided about whether or not to use it because of this, because i suspected that some issues i have had might have been caused by it. It seems that StoryProgression did not cause those issues, and has emigration disabled by def...

LESS free will than EA story progression?

Let me rephrase. 1) Where to i set the automatic progression speed to the slowest possible speed in SP? 2) Is there any way to disable emigration in SP like Shimrod's mod does for EA progression? 3) Is there any way to disable the game automatically making decisions for the non player controlled sim...

LESS free will than EA story progression?

Wait.... really? Story progression doesn't disable emigration? I also am aware that progression with full control can be a fun way to play but i absolutely can't figure out how to control the progression the way i want to, and having no progression is certainly better than finding out that the way i...

LESS free will than EA story progression?

I don't really understand. Default SP makes a boatload of things that i never had happen without it. Like career changes.

I don't want anything to happen, but i want all interactions to be possible with every sim. How do i do that?

LESS free will than EA story progression?

Well then which should i pick? That's the issue, because there are always multiple options but none of them seem to have the same stuff as EA progression with basically all interactions with neighbors and on the given lot being possible, but nothing like emigration happening. This is why me not bein...

LESS free will than EA story progression?

Isn't there the Active Household Caste? I honestly don't want to bother setting everything up manually, and that sort of stuff that you linked is precisely what i couldn't wrap my head around. Honestly i might just go back to EA progression and disallow story progression, because that has come the c...

LESS free will than EA story progression?

I really REALLY don't like how much free will the story progression gives to inactive households. An unhappy marriage for the money was immediately split up, with the kid and the father completely disappearing from the town as soon as i switched to a different household for example. On the other han...
