Line 5:
Some interactions can't be directed, but can happen [[autonomous reaction|autonomously]]. For example, a Sim can "Look out" a window, but can't be told to do so without [[Testingcheatsenabled|testingcheatsenabled]] activated. On the other hand, Sims will '''''not''''' do certain things, such as [[WooHoo]], unless directed to by the player, even if Free Will is enabled.
By default, Free Will is on in every game. In most games, it can be enabled or disabled from the "Game Options" menu -- but ''The Urbz: Sims in the City'' and ''The Sims 2 Castaway'' are exceptions to this. Beginning with ''The Sims 2'', it is set for each lot, and will be on when a family moves into a new lot.
Even if Free Will is disabled, Sims may still move without player direction if it is a life or death situation.
Also, even if Free Will in enabled, Sims will '''never''' do something that will have a serious affect, like kissing/flirting with a Best Friend, marrying/getting engaged to another Sim or Break Up with their partner autonomously. Although, if a Lover is caught cheating, yes, they will automatically Slap them. And, with the Sims 2, if a Sim has adopted a new pet, they will either Snuggle,Rub Belly or Hug with them automatically, though this can be cancelled.
WARNING! Never cancel the Get Food Out Free Will action. It may cause fire, and, without a fire alarm, death.
===[[The Sims]]===
Free Will can be enabled or disabled, and is enabled by default. Unlike later games in the series, Free Will in ''The Sims'' is a global option, even though it can only be enabled or disabled while playing a lot. If Free Will is disabled, it will be disabled for all lots in all neighborhoods.

===[[The Sims 2]]===
Free Will is no longer global, and can now be enabled or disabled for each individual house. Free Will is more advanced than in ''The Sims''. Sims will generally make better choices, but may decide to do things such as make a very filling meal when they're only slightly hungry. Sims may make Free Will choices even while the player is looking though an object's menu.
