I want to start a BACC save. What do you personally do with townies when you start? The rules aren't really clear on what to do. They say unlock the ability to talk to them, but also you have to get rid of all the lots. I don't want them interacting with my sims so I think of deleting them but they're gonna keep spawning randomly. You are planning on fully filling your BACC saves with your own sims as you go right? Cause I think I might do that if I can. Or just keep a few ones. Or place my own.
Hey! Sorry for the late reply (is it?), I didn't know I had messages in my inbox! I always love answering these types of questions and I REALLY hope you do end up starting a BACC soon! If you post it, tag me! I'd love to see it!
I delete everyone and everything, starting completely from scratch with only my sims. For ease, I'll usually download the latest version of Srsly's Blank Save, just make sure the save name is different if you have other blank saves in your game so you don't overwrite anything!
As for townies that generate randomly, I used to have some mods that prevented that from happening altogether, but they broke a while back and have never worked for me since. I usually just periodically delete those sims from my save every time I remember to do it, and the rest of the time I ignore them. The "Just Go Away!" interaction is my best friend in this case.
But yes, I play differently from most BACC players by not allowing townies in my game at all, only my played sims. One day in the distant future I intend to have 100 families all made up of babies born in-game and CAS Point sims that I've earned.
Hope this helps! Happy Simming! 💚
