Telephone: Difference between revisions

Like in the previous game, certain expansions packs have expanded the pie menu and things that can be done with the phone. If ''[[The Sims 3: World Adventures]]'' is installed, the player can plan a [[vacation]] for their Sims. With ''[[The Sims 3: Late Night]]'', a mixologist and butler have been added for the home [[Service]]. The phone also acts as the transmittor for the [[callbox]] and electric gate in the expansion pack. If ''[[The Sims 3: Generations|Generations]]'' is installed, teens can make [[prank call]]s, and Sims can use phones to enroll in boarding schools. With ''[[The Sims 3: Showtime]]'', NPC services have been added for each type of performer and DJ, as well the ability to request a Sing-A-Gram from anywhere for a Sim they know. If ''[[The Sims 3: University Life|University Life]]'' is installed, phones can be used to enroll in [[Sims University|university]].

 

 

Like previous games, a telephone curfew is enforced from 12AM to 6AM, during which any calls are rejected. However, there does not appear to be any effect in relationship if such a call is made. Calling a Sim who is currently at work will provide the player with the time that they should call back. Services can be called at any time of the day; however, the caller must be on their home lot or the option will be greyed out. Unlike previous games, [[child]]ren cannot call for any services, including emergency services.<ref group="n">Children can hire any service if the "call services" module of the [https://modthesims.info/download.php?t=579548 'No Stretch' Children can series] mod is installed.</ref>
