Someone mentioned the new sims' names for both police station and movie studio workplaces. I've noticed that too. Not very helpful but it's funny for at least the first 15 seconds :lol:

When the work places are finished I hope we can go there and interact with everything, like desks, coffee machines food van, dressmaking tables, forensic equipment etc. That would make the workplaces worthwhile. Maybe doing these jobs could give us LPs??? Maybe??? We need a lot more ways to get LPs. I can't afford to buy them.let us enjoy the workplaces that have taken so much LP grinding to build....Speaking of grinding...Maybe a installing a pole at the nightclub???

:shock: :lol:

Someone in this thread has mentioned that the modeling hobby timer is shorter now; there is also a change in the final animation, which makes the waiting for the bubble and then for the prize rather longer...

So trying to get a first badge (by helping 3 people) for a movie star, it shows I helped 3/3, but no badge was given and the task still shows to help 3 people. Is there something I am missing?

It will show when the sim finishes the shift. Supposed to anyway. :)

Not too sure if this is a new thing or not as can't see it written anywhere.

I had the weekly task of "ask a sim to move in" and I completed that action.. And..

Both sims kept their original names... the sim moving in didn't take the other sims name :)

This happens randomly for a while already. Maybe, the name changes later. When I moved sims this morning, they got the name of the household where they moved in.
Though, we should have an eye on it, if the moving is required for a weekly task.

That i found interesting as i messed with relationships from the get go. If you move in a guy into a woman's house the guys name will change to the womans, but only after a visit to a neighbouring town. I got it mixed up and when i found out here you could delete characters, i sorted it out. Also the other way works as well (i.e. if you move in the woman into the man's house, the household name will be the mans). I didnt further the experiment ;-)

I seem to have a new one, perform aquatic lunges on a diving board. It doesn't complete for me though and after trying several times I gave in and skipped the task with LP.
I had some sims with the exclamation mark and assumed when I tapped that the task would complete, it didn't so I set one sim off on doing the task from scratch and still no joy.
I've had a diving goal that had to be completed at the swim center. Maybe that's what the problem was.
Oh that could be it. Thank you I will try that should it come up again.
