How do you set it up to prompt you for a move and can you accept or decline their request?

Nraas>SP>General>Lots>Inspection a few options there but mainly Prompt on Inspection Fail and no need to deny them they just won't move unless it's their home lot then they need to move and I don't think you can turn their request down anyway

Under SP/Town/Move as a family I have it set to False but Move as Solo set to true. So one sim who gets married should be allowed to move into the other sims home. Now you all know I hate castes, but in there I saw Household: Allow Move Caste and then a Household: Disallow Move Caste. So can it be set up to allow only married sims to move in with their partners?

Thanks namaradus for the info on setting inspections

Your welcome LL but it's actually best to leave the move settings at default SP (with the exception of teens if you allow them to live on their own) will auto-adjust those when needed you can actually mess things up changing those and it can also prevent friends from moving in to hlp each other with finances

oops should have been to help each other

WOW. I thought that no one had ever replied to this thread and it had died. I am (supposed to be) monitoring this thread, and I never got any e-mails saying that there were any replies. I am surprised to see so many others having this issue! Sorry I disappeared, college (in RL) has been hectic.

Ummm let's see, from the beginning.

@ MoMoll: yes, before my sims married, they were living with others in their previous home.

@ Namaradus: Did you read my OP? I have combed through that page and I tried to point out that all of those possible reasons don't apply to me. Also, the cost of houses in my town shouldn't make a difference in my situation because I don't want them to buy a new house at all. Whether or not there are enough career objects or beds present also shouldn't make a difference because I have "Rigorous Home Inspection" disabled.

Or at least so I thought, but reading these posts has me confused about the bed/career object situation. So a stranded couple will not move in together if there is not enough beds for the whole family--even if rigorous home inspection is turned off? It's the same situation with the career objects. I though that SP can move a family into a house that does NOT meet career object and bed requirements if rigorous home inspection is turned off. Is that not true?

@ igazor: In answer to your first question (If household moves are disallowed), I think the answer to that is no. I think that type of situation would be dictated by "Allow Move:Solo" or something like that. As for your question directed to me, I don't remember exactly but it is something about how the housing market is tough and there are not homes available that suit them. I don't understand those messages. Their standards should be very low because I have "Rigorous Home Inspection" turned off.
I just want either the husband or the wife to move in with their spouse, in their spouse's current house, regardless of career objects, beds, or whatever.

I also have this problem but usually in households where multiple sims reside. I always figured that the reason is that there's no way the game knows which of these sims in this multiple household are supposed to move with the newly married sim. I mean, ideally the game would recognize that "father" or "sister" is not expected to move in with the newlyweds but "son" or "daughter" is suppose to move. But I don't think the game recognizes types of relationships when moving.

OTOH I had a save where a sim lived in a nice house with her dog but her new spouse who lived in a relatively small apartment would not move in with her. I finally got tired of the notices of not finding a suitable house together and just went into edit town and plopped him into her house.

In my current game though, I have a couple who just got married and one moved in with the spouse within a day or so. I'll have to check, but I'm thinking I have rigorous home inspections turned off.

I checked in-game and with the couple who were just married, the husband moved in with his wife's family. So I think the game tries to keep all sims in a household together. When SP finally married Jon Lessen and Ruby Broke in my saved game, Jon moved in with Ruby and her family at the trailer compound since that's where Ruby w still living. That was too much for me! Rock Stars do not move into mobile homes. Jeesh! I switched to their household to get them moved back into Jon's house.
