Ageless foreign Sims

Post by Rodderick90 » November 25th, 2023, 7:01 pm

I have a question, if I turn the above setting to True and they start aging when I am not there, will they also have children and keep life alive as it were.
I want to turn it on but I don't want to come back to a place, potentially generations later to nothing but old timers and dead folks lol.
Thank you kindly.

Setting Ageless Foreign Sims to True will stop the sims in that foreign world from aging at all. If the setting is False for that world, the sims will have aged the next time you load that world. Nothing actually happens until the world is simulated again, at which point the sims all get aged up within a sim-day or so.

Without Traveler, the game may generate offspring for sims and will likely kill off the oldest ones. It may also generate new sims randomly if the world is sufficiently depopulated. But there's no guarantee that the population will be properly balanced, that you won't get a bunch of elders and one or two children and nothing in between.

Traveler has a setting to "perform travel actions," which simulates the game's attempt to progress the world, for example generating new children. But this isn't perfect either. So if you don't want the travel worlds to be depopulated and don't want to use StoryProgression's Rapid Immigration to bring in more sims, you're better off with Ageless Foreign Sims set to True.
