Line 11:
The impact of a meteor also creates [[fire]]s and Sims standing near enough will get singed. The ground will be littered with scrap metal and space rocks.
 
A meteor can also hit buildings. Sims will automatically leave the building if a meteor is approaching. Those who do not exit the building in time will die. Children in schools are not allowed to leave, even under a meteor.
 
Meteors never fall directly on children, though they may still get crushed if they stand close enough to the impact zone of a meteor aiming for a larger adult Sim.
Line 20:
Unless [[mod]]s are used, it is almost impossible to be hit by a meteor, so this is a very uncommon form of death. Only one premade Sim, [[Steward Curious]], died from being hit by a meteor.
 
The only types of Sims who cannot die in this way are aliens[[alien]]s, ghosts[[ghost]]s (playable or non-playable), [[Baby|babies]] and toddlers[[toddler]]s.
 
In ''[[The Sims 3: Seasons|Seasons]]'', [[alien]]saliens can summon meteors at will, and if they summon them in crowded places such as schools or festivals, the chances of the meteor hitting multiple Sims is very high.
 
== Surviving A Meteor Attack ==
* Upon receiving the meteor notification pay attention immediately. Do not delay.
* Determine if one of your sims are at risk. The notification should mention which sim is at risk.
* Move your sim out of the meteor shadow immediately. You should move him or herthem well away from the shadow.
* If your sim is in a rabbithole, get him or herthem out and away from the shadow.
* If an NPC is at risk, try using the resetsim [name] cheat to move him or herthem.
* Keep your sim out of the meteor shadow after moving him or herthem.
* Watch out for fires after the meteor attacks.

==Notes==
*If ''[[The Sims 3: Pets]]'' is installed, pets can be hit by a meteor, and cats stalking prey have a larger chance of being hit by a meteor.
*If a meteor hits a school, all child sims will die and cannot escape.
*While meteors are extremely unlikely to kill Sims that are not controlled by the player, should the player controlled Sim be shadowed by a meteor while in close proximity to NPC Sims, the NPC Sims then become impossible to save because they will stand inside the shadow and look up until the meteorite impacts. Multiple NPC Sims can be killed in this manner.
*In rare cases, a Sim currently inside a rabbithole can become the meteor's target. In this instance, all Sims inside that rabbithole are at risk.
