Default Finally!

I'm really glad that the whole neighborhood ages at the same time- I have some families where the mother's grandchildren are older than her so it's good that they all age. But i'm confused how it works- do you load a family up like in sims2 or what?

I would assume you make families and move them in, but if they're all just sitting around and reading you can nip across the street to play that family for a while.

I guess you could right click on any sim walking down the street to switch which family you are controlling.

im not sure either it sounds confusing but easy @ the same time... im glad they age at the same time 2 coz that way they can hav friends that age w/ them so that they can marry them when they get the chance without losing them as a best friend or love ect.
