Mrs. CrumpleBottom: Difference between revisions
Sounds like a good old VBT to me. Also, a few misc. edits.

#Don't go Downtown. Sims don't have to go out for a date. A cozy night at home can be every bit as satisfying as a night out. Since Mrs. CrumpleBottom can't go onto private property without the use of cheats (or a Wishing Well romance wish fail), Sims can show as much affection as they desire without the risk of being beaten with a purse or scolded. This will also save money because they don't need to buy a car, call a taxi, or build a garage. This is not always the best choice, especially if a Sim [[want]]s to go out.
#
#If Sims do go Downtown for a date, have them go to a bowling alley, a nightclub with a bar, or a lot with at least one poker table. Although Mrs. CrumpleBottom is mean and cranky, she still likes fun as well as drinks. Sims can be [[WooHoo]]ing right in front of her and she won't care as long as she is bowling, drinking or playing poker. See [[Mrs. CrumpleBottom#Distractions|the Distractions section]] below.
#Cancel her action before she can complete it. She is an old woman, so she is slow. While she is walking toward your Sim(s), X out her action by clicking on it. It is a picture of her at the top left corner. Many experienced Simmers know this. If she is running toward them, pause the game and X out her action. Try to overwrite it by making the Sim(s) do something else like talk to each other. She will still yell at them, but they won't notice because of the action they are doing at the moment.
#Use of [http://www.modthesims.info/download.php?t=278816 this mod] from ModTheSims will prevent her from spawning in the game. The mod does not do anything harmful, just modifies the code that tests to see if she should be spawned so it always says that she shouldn't.
▲#Have a date on a community lot that is not located Downtown. Special Sims introduced with ''Nightlife'' (such as Grand Vampires and Mrs. CrumpleBottom) only appear in [[Downtown (The Sims 2)|Downtown]]. So, if there is a club or a public swimming pool in the main neighborhood or a shopping district{{vgversion|TS2:OFB}}, she won't appear.
▲#Use of [http://www.modthesims.info/download.php?t=278816 this mod] from ModTheSims will prevent her from spawning in the game. The mod does not do anything harmful, just modifies the code that tests to see if she should be spawned so it always says that she shouldn't. This will not prevent the ''Seasons'' wishing well from having the failure flame when a romance wish fails, but she will not be spawned.
