Game guide:Killing Sims: Difference between revisions

The easiest and fastest way to start a fire is to use the  [[Firework#The Sims|Sky Scorcher Fireworks Kit]] indoors. As the Sim lights the firework, it will skyrocket upward but immediately turn downward, causing a fire in the room. The Sky Scorcher Fireworks Kit can also be used outdoors to burn up Sims - just keep letting off rockets until one randomly hits the Sim who fired the rocket. This will usually take between 6 and 201 tries.

[[Drowning]] is the both the surest and the simplest method. To achieve this, create a 3x3 or larger pool and make the Sim get in. Then remove all the ladders, as Sims in ''The Sims'' cannot climb out of pools without ladders.  Then wait until all their motives drop down and they will eventually drown. Strangely, a Sim can enter a pool that doesn't have a ladder.

One of the best way to kill Sims in ''The Sims 2'' is by using [[boolpropTesting testingcheatsenabledcheats]] true, and then spawning [[Rodney's Death Creator]]. Rodney's Death Creator allows the player to kill Sims instantly in any way, even if the life stage is not right for the type of death, such as death of old age for a teen. Players can also easily kill Sims without Rodney's Death Creator but with testingcheatsenabled, such as by dragging the hunger meter to rock bottom or aging them to the limit. However, this tutorial is considered to show the ways to kill Sims without it.

Get the sim to swim in the pool, and then take out all of the ladders. When their hunger or energy is empty, they will drown. Like  ''The Sims'', sims can enter a pool that doesn't have a ladder.

Death by fire is one of the most common death in The Sims series. There are [[Fire#How fire starts|many ways]] to start a fire, but one of the most common ways to start a fire is to leave food on the stove or to light the fireplace. However, an instant way to create fire is to grill inside, which, for some reason, will set the house on fire instantly. The next solution is to place rugs below the grill before using it, and they will catch fire and allow it to spread. The best rug to use is the basketball court rug from ''[[FreeTime]]'', which is the most expensive and also the largest. Try using [[Moveobjects]] on if you can't get it positioned correctly. However, if you own ''[[Apartment Life]]'', a glitch may cause the rug to not catch on fire. Therefore, you must [[The Sims 2: Apartment Life/patch|patch]] the game for the best result.

A quick way for each death listed is through the use of [https://modthesims.info/download.php?t=498188 this mod.]. The mod article should explain all uses.

An easy way to kill your Sims is by [[Hunger|starving]] them. To do that, create a small room, usually 5x5 or 4x4, and remove a single wall section. Be sure the Sim has no food items in their inventory, such as fruit or vegetables. Then make the Sim get inside the room. Close the room with a wall again. Alternatively, send the Sim into a bathroom and have another Sim in the household lock the door to prevent them from leaving the bathroom. After that, just wait a few days and the Sim will die due to starvation. The ghost will be magenta and the grave will have a fork and knife mark on it. This method is good if you don't like spending your Sims' money, and it can also be achieved by [[Cheats|cheating]]. Type Ctrl+Shift+C, and a console should appear. Type "testingcheatsenabled true" without the quotes. Then drag the Hunger [[Motive|need]] bar all the way down. If you do this while the game is playing, the Sim will cancel all their interactions, complain about being very hungry, and die. If you do this while the game is paused, when you unpause it, the Sim will cancel all their interactions, then immediately die. 

However, you do not have to trap the Sim in the pool for it to drown. If your pool is big enough, and a Sim swims to the center of the pool, if you let it do what it wants to, it will not be able to reach the edge of the pool in time. This  '''will'''  cost you a lot of simoleons.

Even starting up a grill inside a room, and then canceling the grilling process can result in a deadly fire. Lighting a firework inside the house would also cause fire. Every type of firework can and will start a fire if lit indoors, even the carbon snake firecracker, and they all use the same animation, a firework rocket ricocheting off the air,  if lit indoors, even if the firework isn't a rocket.

If a witch from ''[[Supernatural]]''  is around, have the witch cast a fire blast at the Sim or the floor directly under the Sim. This will set them on fire.

This is only possible with ''[[The Sims 3: World Adventures|World Adventures]]'' installed. Killing a Sim by [[Mummy's Curse|mummy's curse]] is very difficult. Make them go to [[Al Simhara]], where you can find loads of [[Mummy|mummies]]. If you are (un)lucky enough, your Sim will be cursed. After 2 weeks (14 days) without being cured, they will die. The ghost will be golden brown. A black smoke will also surround the ghost's head and there will be a mummy mark on the grave. This is a good method for players who love stories about ancient history and storytellers who want to spice up their story, but it is very difficult to achieve.

This is only possible with ''[[The Sims 3: Ambitions|Ambitions]]'' installed. This death is very, very rare, and the chances of being hit by a meteor are extremely small, although with Seasons you can have a playable alien use Summon Meteor, at the cost of a high amount of their Brain Power need, and with the Disasters and Blessings mod, you can cause a rain of meteors, where several small meteors will land around the target, followed by the target being hit by a meteor, even if Ambitions isn't installed. Before a meteor lands, ominous music will play and a message will appear saying the Sim is wondering why it got so dark. There is an option to make them move out of the way before the meteor lands or leave them to their doom. This method is definitely the best for storytellers.

This is only possible with ''[[Late Night]]'' or ''[[Supernatural]]''. This is similar to the Starvation death, but is exclusive to vampires, as they have Thirst instead of Hunger. Follow the same steps as Starvation. The ghost of the vampire will be black with a red pulsing heart and the grave will have a bat mark on it. As above in the death by hunger section, you can enter testingcheatsenabled true and drag the thirst need to empty as a quick way to kill a vampire. Another quick way is to get your vampire Sim in the sun for a long time, and they will get the 'Too Much Sun' moodlet. While active, their thirst will plummet dramatically. Just lock them in a room without a roof after getting the moodlet and wait, and death will soon follow.

This death is exclusive to ''Supernatural''. Only the caster of the curse can die while casting the haunting curse and it backfires on the casting witch. The haunting curse is unlocked at level 5 of the spellcasting skill.

Strangely, if the spell is succesfulsuccessful, the target is haunted by a ghost, but if the spell backfires, the caster dies.

The [[Cowplant]], which can be bought from ''[[TheSims3.com|TheSims3The storeSims 3 Store]]'', when placed, will have a slice of cake on its tongue after 3 days without being fed. A Sim with low hygiene who tries to interact with it will be eaten.

This is exclusive to ''Supernatural''. In order to achieve this death, simply have your Sim eat too many Jelly Beans from the Jelly Bean Plant. There is a 1% chance that they will die after eating one.

Again, this only works with ''Supernatural''. A Sim may be turned into gold when using the [[Philosopher's Stone]]. The ghost is gold and shimmering, and will also leave a gold statue behind that is worth §50,000 to §62,500. A Sim can die this way by turning too many things to gold, and there is a higher chance that it will happen if they have the Unlucky or Loser trait.

You can only kill Sims this way if ''[[The Sims 3: Seasons|Seasons]]'' is installed. This is best completed in the winter, or with cheats. If the temperature is low enough and the Sim is standing outside, (preferably in Swimwear), they will get the "Getting Chilly" moodlet. This means your Sim is moderately cold. After about 3 hours out in the cold they will get another moodlet, named "Teeth Chattering." Be careful now, because they will try to change into their Outerwear. Soon they will get Frostbite, and after 3 hours they'll Freeze Solid. If their hunger need completely depletes, they'll die of Freezing. The Sim's ghost will be very light blue, and their clothes and hair will be darker.

The Murphy bed in ''[[The Sims 3: University Life|University Life]]'' can crush a Sim, similar to the way it works in ''The Sims 2''. A Sim who survives the Murphy Bed falling will get the "Murphy Bed Clinophobia" moodlet that will last for 6 hours, and during that time they won't be able to pull down or close it.

[[''The Sims 3: University Life]]'' is required for this. There is a vending machine found on campus or bought in Buy Mode, and if the Sim slams into it enough, it will fall and crush them.

[[''The Sims 3: Into the Future]]'' is needed. Let your Sim use the jetpack with low Advanced Technology skill. There is a small chance that the jetpack will severely malfunction, sending your Sim so far up that it's impossible to see them, and they will catch fire when they near the ground, then explode. The corpse isn't rendered until a short time after the explosion.

This death requires ''Into Thethe Future''. Occasionally, after traveling through the Time Portal, a Sim will acquire a moodlet named "Time Paradox Sickness". If the player chooses not to cure them at a hospital, they will develop a series of moodlets eventually leading to the Sim disappearing, followed by death.
