Line 9:
Improvements to a lot generally cannot be made while in live mode. The player must enter [[buy mode]] to purchase new household items, and [[build mode]] to make architectural changes. The lot grid used for the placement of objects is not visible in live mode. However, starting with ''[[The Sims 2: Nightlife]]'', the [[inventory]] system allows players to move objects around, or into and out of inventory, without leaving live mode.
==Interface==
Players can switch to the next Sim by pressing the {{Key|Spacebar}}, or individually selected by right-clicking on them or by left-clicking on their portrait icon. The currently selected Sim will have a [[plumbob]] over their head. Left-clicking on the portrait icon again will focus the [[game camera|camera]] onto them; right-clicking on their portrait locks the camera on them, and will follow them around as they move. In addition, pressing down the "View My Sim" button from the control panel or clicking on the map tag of currently selected Sim will shift the focus to them.{{Vgversion|TS3}}
The live mode panel will display the following information about the currently selected Sim or lot. Different parts of the panel, as well as the entire user interface itself, can be expanded or collapsed.

The live mode user interface will change depending on what is currently active. For instance, if the selected Sim is on a scored [[date]], [[outing]] or [[party|social event]], a separate panel will appear displaying the score of the event.{{Vgversion|TS2:NL}}{{Vgversion|TS4}}
In ''[[The Sims 3]]'', live mode is the only mode where map view can be accessed. Map tags will appear in map view, allowing the player to distinguish between [[lot assignment]]s and [[rabbit hole]]s. Sims in the current household are shown by their own map tag, or a [[plumbob]] if they are on a lot.
