Line 69:
When adults enter the elder life stage, their hair will turn to gray, although this can be edited by clicking on a mirror or dresser and choosing "Change Sim" or "Plan Outfit". When Sims are elders, they will perform tasks at a slower speed compared to younger Sims. When they perform heavy tasks (doing fitness or WooHoo), they may become exhausted, which will cause the "Dangerously Tired" moodlet to appear. If they continue to perform heavy tasks, they will die of overexertion. Just like in the previous games, elders can retire. They can do this with their smartphone and will gain daily pensions. Elders can also still adopt children, as female elders cannot become pregnant anymore. However, elder males can still impregnate younger Sims.
 
The Simology panel shows the days the Sim has lived, instead of the days until the Sim dies of old age. If the Sim life length is normal (the default length), the Sim will be 100 days old when becoming an elder. Once the elder Sim's age meter is full, it may take up to 48 hours on normal lifespan for the Sim to pass away. Elders with the '''Long Lived''' reward trait from completing the Bodybuilder aspiration will live significantly longer than normal, even to the point where their own children are elders. Unlike in the Sims 3, while connecting relationships in CAS, an Elder can be set as the parent or child of another Elder, allowing for great-grandparents to be made in CAS.
