:::It's odd, considering that toddlers aren't supposed to be able to die in fires. I'm not sure if they're supposed to be able to die at all. It might be something specific to PlantSim toddlers, but with only one case (that I'm aware of) I'd just be guessing. Also, what's there about ''The Sims'' is pretty much it.

::::Well, actually any toddler can die in fire, only this is impossible if you are not trying, and almost same with PlantSims. Though I wasn't trying "to kill" normal toddler myself, I saw plenty of experiments by other players. Toddlers are "the hard case" because: 1. If an adult or elder (maybe teen, also) is nearby, they will try to "save" toddlers (free will "off" doesn't matter) and even can teleport them through walls if they are unable to leave the room themselves. 2. The same with Social Workers - if motives will drop to much they arrive and save toddler. With Plantsims it's a bit easier because there are only 3 motives and they can to stay high enough for Social Worker not to come. 3. The fire somehow "avoids" catching toddlers, I don't know if this is the property of the code. But even if the whole room is on fire it takes considerable amount of time to "catch" toddler.[[User:Faust-RSI|Faust-RSI]] 14:00, March 1, 2012 (UTC)

::::::Interesting. I'm guessing, but it seems possible that toddler ghosts and moving toddler graves weren't provided for, as they should be either saved or taken away before they can die. [[User:Dharden|Dharden]] ([[User_talk:Dharden|talk]]) 14:17, March 1, 2012 (UTC)

:::::::Seems to be the case. Also, previously I thought I just didn't notice because I wasn't paying enough attention, but now that I think about it, it seems PlantSim toddler was never actually burning. I.e. after some time in fire it just disappeared without any signs of being on fire, though Grip Reaper did come, the grave appeared and ash was left as usual.[[User:Faust-RSI|Faust-RSI]] 14:22, March 1, 2012 (UTC)

==Deleting Tombstone==

According to [http://www.moreawesomethanyou.com/smf/index.php/topic,2083.0.html MATY], deleting tombstones could potentially cause bad thing to happen.

==Interactions between Sims and Ghosts in Sims 1-2==

:::* [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tAlBodKMMMM 1]- at 0:29 - The ghosts just passes by Cassandra (the little girl) and she doesn't get "Be Spooked" even while she's trying to take a bath.

:::* [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cMzgsdO0S64 2]- start at 09:46 - Notice how the player can cancel the "Be Spooked" interaction on the queue while the Sim is still talking to another person? So it's not induced as soon the Sim sees one. Its an interaction like "Talk" for example. If a Sim wants to talk to another person while that person is doing something else its waiting on queue. But I noticed that they do run away from the ghost after being scared though. Anways, ghosts only use "Be Spooked" interaction only if they want to. Not because I Sim sees them.

::::I think it's fair to say that Sims in ''The Sims'' do not always notice ghosts, and that ghosts can spook Sims. However, I disagree that the "Be Spooked" interaction '''only''' happens when a ghost chooses to use it. [[User:Dharden|Dharden]] ([[User_talk:Dharden|talk]]) 01:36, June 2, 2012 (UTC)

 

== I want my Graveyard Ghosts back! ==

Really? I constantly look at my Sims' inventories, and I don't notice any gravestones in there... :/

 

 

 

::Didn't have time to try this until recently. It worked! The dead are now bak at their rightful places in the graveyard. Thank you!

 

 

== Keeping Ghosts At Bay in TS3 ==

 

:::Not yet. I do plan to though. I am doing a sort of legacy, and eventually with it, I plan on the family having a secret chamber on their home lot, which they "discovered." I do plan for it to contain the remains of a long lost ancestor. I will put an urn down there, to see what happens.
