Townie: Difference between revisions

Townies in ''The Sims 4'' are unique in that they appear to be entirely randomly generated once the game begins, rather than there being a pre-created starter "Townie pool" as part of the game files as there was in ''The Sims 2''. In this game, Townies are added to Household Management under the "Other Households" tab, in which they can be edited and made playable by moving them in. Randomly generated townies are attached to a saved game rather than to a specific world such as [[Willow Creek]] or [[Oasis Springs]], and as such, can turn up in any location within the game. Many townies generated with ''[[The Sims 4: City Living]]'' also feature Moroccan, Japanese and Indian names.

However, there are still a few pre-made townies in ''The Sims 4'' with some of its expansions. In ''[[The Sims 4: Cats & Dogs]]'', the game ships with [[Captain Whitaker]] (a stray ghost dog) and [[Mayor Whiskers]] (a stray cat), both of which are pet townies that roam around in [[Brindleton Bay]]. In ''[[The Sims 4: Seasons]]'', [[Santa Claus#The Sims 4: Seasons|Father Winter]] (named Clement Frost) will generate as a pre-made townie, although he only shows up during Winterfest holidays and not randomly around town. With ''[[The Sims 4: Get Famous]]'', the expansion features several pre-made [[Fame (The Sims 4: Get Famous)|celebrity]] townies, such as [[Baby Ariel]], [[Brytani Cho]] and [[Izzy Fabulous]]. A few pre-made mermaids appear as townies with ''[[The Sims 4: Island Living]]'', such as [[Nalani Mahi'ai]].
