Alright... need help with a sim who won't stay dead

Yeah. So, technically he is dead. Using the sim manipulator, he died of disease. Previously I'd used the manipulator to kill off the older generations by old age, and they've all died properly and have stayed properly dead.

At first I didn't see anything wrong, his tombstone generated just fine, and I was able to move it to the cemetery with no trouble. In fact I wouldn't have realized anything was wrong till I was in SimPE working on something completely unrelated when I saw he was listed under 'Townies' rather than 'Uneditable', and had kept his Household rather than being moved into 'Default'. I then thought I'd fixed it, using the teleporter to teleport him to the original lot, and then the game did the whole 'died on another lot' deal and he was properly moved into Default and uneditable. Killed off his wife to old age, and she's also totally fine and has stayed totally fine.

Thought it was all good, till I pulled up one of his kids, and they had the memories, "Damien died"> "Damien got engaged"> "Damien got married".... I pull him up again in SimPE (he still was properly set) and found all of his memories were like... defaulted? As if he were made in CAS, rather than having been born in game (and all the fussing I'd done under the hood as it were to set up the story). Odd but ultimately fine if not frustrating, I'll fix the still alive family memories later.

But then today I'm going through one of his daughters relationship panel in SimPE trying to find someone and there the fucker is, under the wrong Household again and moved into the 'Townie' category.

TLDR: Is it ok for a dead sim, if they're otherwise behaving normally, to not be in the Default household, and technically a townie? Why won't he stay in the default household? What have I done and is this going to be a problem later down the road?

I’m reinstalling my game today. Normally, I’d say that this is unnecessary in almost every situation, but hey. It’s worth a shot at this point, right? July is nearly here, and I had planned to work on sim story scenes for Camp Nano, so it’s well passed time for me to buckle down and figure this out.

Another thing I noticed while installing is this shot. Is that supposed to be a sim version of the Playboy mansion? And the women are all thinking of riches, of course. EAxis sure did love that gold digger trope.

AIGHT! Finished Ch3. Now I’ve got some discrepancies.

Let me start out by saying I still enjoyed the game, however, I somehow seem to have gotten the short end of the stick while playing. 

I don’t understand why my game quality was so bad. Just choppy, and bad controls. Just to be clear that it’s not my own system, I’ve run Cuphead and Gigantic, the latter being a more 3D intensive game and both ran smoothly with fantastic graphics. So, why does it look so bad? 

I checked out both Squiggly’s stream and DAGames, Will’s being super smooth, probably due to his hi-end tech and even though Squigg’s wasn’t nearly as smooth, it still looked playable enough. Again, Bendy’s graphics really aren’t that intensive and my computer CAN make Cuphead and Gigantic look good!

BUTTONS AND CONTROLS. What the FUCK is up with this?! This is the part that really made me mad. I’m running a PC now and the buttons shouldn’t be this messed up. I couldn’t use WASD keys because they didn’t allow me to look at the same time, so I settled with the arrow keys and it functioned fine, EXCEPT THAT MY SPRINT BUTTON WAS ON THE OTHER SIDE OF MY KEYBOARD. I COULDN’T REACH IT!! It would be helpful if I could adjust my own controls to counter something like this or at least have proper controller support. My look button on the controller wouldn’t work well either. So yeah, I scraped by the time-based puzzles and escaping Bendy.

Because of how slow I had to move during my play, I ran into Bendy a lot, but heard that wasn’t the case for everyone and those Little Miracle Boxes were not as heavily used. So perhaps Bendy needs to be a little more threatening in the game than he currently is. If you kept moving you could avoid him. The projectionist was a little more threatening to me because the space was smaller, until he got stuck in a wall and not even me beating him was enough to break him out. 

Chapter 3 is nice and long, but I feel like it may have needed save features because after playing 1-3 I was up at 4am and hid in a Miracle box for the next 13 hours because I don’t think I could save progress. Putting me back at Bendy statues is great, but then again it almost detracts from the threat he poses. I think it would be nice to know how many items I’ve collected, having an icon counter in the corner of the screen would help me keep track of them while I’m also trying to evade Bendy and searchers. The gear boxes had thrown me off since a few of them were empty. Another thing, the game would simply stop after completing chapter 1 and 2, it didn’t transition the way it was supposed to, leaving me to exit the game and reopen it just to get to the next chapter.

So I had a LOT of trouble with this game, had I been more impatient I’d have stopped earlier because this game looks really broken on my end. It also makes me mad seeing that no one else is having this problem. If I could simply uninstall and reinstall it to fix a majority of this mess, I’ll do it, but I’d like to see an update to some of these broken mechanics. I won’t be playing it again until then, it’s a royal pain.

I’ll be dropping a few of these concerns to the developers in hopes that they could find something or make some adjustments to improve on it. They might have rushed it’s release a little bit and should have run a beta test or get some testers to check. I can’t be the only one having these problems.

Nothing ever works for me, no games ever go good or smoothly like they do for everyone else, I wanted to play RollerCoaster Tycoon because I love the game, so we bought it on Steam. It doesn’t work at all on Steam. It’ll say running for 3 seconds then it’ll just stop. So I decided okay, I’ll use my disk instead, I put it in, and it doesn’t work at all either. Why can’t I just have things go my way for once??? Looks like i cant be happy ever, thats just great.

Everytime I switch out of my herald, I have trouble getting back.

Is anyone else having trouble switching between Characters in-game?

I think it is time for me to delete all my .dbc files and start anew.

Maybe like that I'll stop having so much trouble (trouble trouble) with my game :( And besides, I swear this time I'll be more selective with what I download.

But first I have to make an inventory of what I want to re-download. There are some pieces of cc that I really can't live without.
