oldskool posted:Am I the only one who made giant one-floor houses because I was completely incapable of remembering I had a second floor/basement and would constantly forget where my non-free-will Sims had been abandoned? I used to play The Sims a bit and I've got The Sims 3 now, and I find multiple storey houses just a massive pain in the arse in both of them. The fact that adding a floor means you can't see the entire house all at once is just such a huge disadvantage. It doesn't help that I don't particularly like the house-building part of the game and tend to just use pre-made houses, and most of them have two floors.

Captain Sheepy posted:Second stories are a little useful for relatively small houses on relatively small lots, so you wouldn't have to move the camera much when switching back and forth. Ideally though, you'll want enough space, so in The Sims 1 which has the worst path-finding/AI in any of the games in the series, I wouldn't really recommend it. To my surprise, the house I built in the LP is actually a bit bigger than the Goth residence by square feet, and that's a mansion! I didn't really have scale in mind at this point yet, so our little ranch isn't so little after all. Good enough for us I suppose, since even the Goth house is a bit crowded with three people already. IIRC playing as the Goths was always a bit of a pain because of how cramped their house was.

JcDent posted:Another thing: do Sim optimization paths support existence of Broseph Sim or Bored Housewives of SimCity? One does the social thing, the other cleans house and all that jazz. Do you mean, can you successfully do that? If so, yes. That's how I always used to play, with three or four person households where one made the money, one made the friends, one kept the place clean and cooked the meals.
