The Sims question

[LongCoolMother]

Hey, i have the sims house party, and i have a question. How come whenever my sim walks outside to go to work, or gets outside, his room rating falls all the way down? There no trash, i built flowers n trees and gravel and lights outside. But his room rating still flies down...why?!

I am not sure. My Sims were a bunch of whiny b1tches. I was playing The Sims with the Livin' Large expansion, and I decided to put a swimming pool inside on their ground floor. How cool was that? I had to put suits of armour, the top of the line computer, and some crappy artwork in there to keep them from getting depressed, though. Bastards! :|

Then I had them start setting off fireworks in their dining room. Now THAT was FUN!

Hmm... Mind posting a screen shot? I remember at first, the room rating outside would suck because I had no money. Try adding some items that add room stuff. Lawn flamingoes, fountains, stuff like that.

Make sure the outside of your house looks good too. Maybe upgrade the siding or paint job. But mostly I think it is a reflection of The Sims' desire to be indoors. But with lots of windows so it SEEMS like they're outside. It's like Simoutdoors.

You can play Russian Roulette with your Sims, too. Have a narrow strip of floor around the edge of the indoor pool. Have all your Sims standing around the pool. Have one Sim launch some fireworks from a two-square piece of floor in the middle of the pool, then dive into the water. The rocket always hits the floor, it never lands in the water. Then try and guess where the rocket is going to come down and try and clear your Sims out in time.

Another favourite Sims trick. Have a partly late at night so the cops show up. Make sure the hosts of the party are in the indoor pool. The cop will get in the pool and swim over to them, although she walks on water when she is writing the citation. Anyway, once she is in the pool, get your hosts out before she can get to them. Then remove the ladder to the pool. Voila, you have your very own cop tank, and she can never leave unless you decide to let her!
