Aging and save slots

 * Q: Will there be any way to turn aging off for some families and on for others, or have it on for the family you're playing and off for others like in Sims 2?

A: There is a cheat


 * Q: We've heard of "save slots", are they still in the game? and how do they work exactly? Is there a limited number of save slots you can have? If you save a family in a save slot and other sims build up relationships with that family, then does reloading them make their relationships go back to what they were when you saved them?

A: Im sure


 * Q: Because the neighborhood is "open" and all Sims age at the same time, what happens if a Sim is about go grow up but you are with another family? Does the game give you a pop-up notice about the birthday? Same goes for pregnancy and other similar events. Thanks! Mattlovesthesims 21:06, 25 March 2009 (UTC)

A: My advice is to not plan any big events when youre not there, like to prevent pregency keep the sim locked up in the house :), yeah

Gameplay
A: You mean create a sim, then youd choose their traits? Yeah, check out
 * Q:: Will Sims created in the game still inherit their parents' genetic traits?


 * Q:: Heya! The name's Wolfie, I was just wondering what the situation with switching residencies is in the new game? Does it work like in The Sims 2 with a family bin type thing, or do your sims physically move in to a house...? Thanks! ^_^ --wolfheart 03:08, 26 March 2009 (UTC)

A: Have to find out. "Wink"


 * Q:: when you turn off aging, free will and story progression does it apply to the whole town or just one household? Can apply to a household or the town each seperately? What happenswhen you use agging off and story progression off ?

A: Sorry cant tell you bout that, thats a thing the team wants you to find out for yourself :( It's my job to be secretive


 *  Q: : Hello. I am so exited about the Sims 3. My question is about the universal aging/free will thing. I understand that the neighborhood moves and ages, even though a certain family isn't being played. So what if a sim gets marries, or has a child, using free will, and you don't want them to? Thanks!!!

A: That'll between you and your Sim... There's a cheat code


 * Q: Whats with the collecting and are they ever going to include tennis courts? can you sell anything if its your buisness and what about pets?

A: They KINDA do A: To have a playable ghost, you should resurrect a dead Sim by taking the urn to the science lab. The life fruit can be used to extend the life of a Sim, but if used in cooking to make a quality Ambrosia, it can be used to bring ghosts back to life. They are ghost, so they can pass through the walls etc... (i think that i read it somewhere...) --Aster09
