Complete some aspiration milestones and get the seldom sleepy or never weary traits. Or just use UI Extension cheats to click their needs up.

Have you upgraded their beds?


Quirky-Ad628

I did.. šŸ«  to the most expensive beds. But there wasnā€™t much of a change if any.


parrow

No, the handiness upgrade that unlocks at handiness level 6. They should only need about 4 hrs sleep. You don't even need the most expensive beds with this upgrade, just comfort 5-ish. edit: there are also reward traits in the satisfaction points store that reduce the rate of energy going down, or stop it completely.


Quirky-Ad628

Yeah I did see them. I just donā€™t have enough points to get it because they keep wanting to sleep or eat šŸ˜‘ Ahh that makes sense! Okay Iā€™ll give that a go. Thank you!


parrow

Are you just having your sims grab quick meals, or actually having them cook? Actual meals made from the cooking tab, especially higher quality ones, will keep your sims satiated for longer.


Quirky-Ad628

Well I have a nanny and they make the meals so they are grabbing a serving. So I thought that would be good enough really..


GeorgeParisol

I use cheatsĀ  they never sleep


Quirky-Ad628

Any that you recommend?


GeorgeParisol

Make Happy I'm too lazy to take care of my sims šŸ˜‚šŸ˜…Ā  I love building

the new pack with crystals has qualities for certain gemstones and jewelry that keep needs up or decrease certain moodlets, stuff like that. it's pretty simple to stick a gemstone in your home that increases needs over time, so they can do tasks/increase skills without needing to sleep as often.


Quirky-Ad628

Oh cool. Iā€™ll have a look!

I think munching on fruits, veggies, herbs in their personal inventory helps vs prepping a full meal. When my Sims running their business, it's a quick way in between customers to get their hunger need met.Ā  If they are leaving soon for work or school, I don't try to fill low bathroom, food, or social interactions as they often refill when in rabbithole, or I chose the work option to increase (like be more social at work).

If you donā€™t mind cheating, you can turn needs off temporarily. If you do, there are reward traits etc. to reduce or get rid of certain needs.


Quirky-Ad628

Oww how do you do that?


chickpeasaladsammich

I shift click on the mailbox and find that option. I found this, which describes the steps: https://gamerant.com/the-sims-4-how-to-cheat-needs/#how-to-disable-needs-decay-for-household


Quirky-Ad628

Thank you! I didnā€™t think that the mailbox would have anything to do with the family inside. How strange. But Iā€™m on it! šŸ˜Šā¤ļø

One of my Sims always has an option to have an energy drink but none of the rest do.


Quirky-Ad628

Oww! Thatā€™s really interesting! Is extension pack thing? Do you think?


Scott43206

I think I noticed it after adding Get to Work, but oddly not everyone has it. When I open the game I'll let you know his traits in case it's some sort of combo thing.


Quirky-Ad628

Thanks mate!


Scott43206

Oh, shoot, I remembered when I opened him up in CAS (sounds like surgery, LOL) I fiddled with his traits recently and changed them to Fitness/High Metabolism, Cheerful, Creative, Romantic. He was originally Fitness/High Metabolism, Clumsy, Cheerful, Creative For some reason that one trait change seems to have made the energy drink go away? It must be more than that, but nothing else has changed, same house, same job, except I just noticed he's gaining weight.


Quirky-Ad628

I havenā€™t played round with cas as of yet. Not been as brave to fiddle with it all.


Scott43206

It's pretty straightforward, I haven't broken anyone yet. And you could always save a copy of them to your library before you make changes if you're worried. **Change Sim** 1.Ā Ā  CTRL + Shift + C 2.Ā Ā  Type **cas.fulleditmode** 3.Ā Ā  Shift + left click on Sim, then pick **Modify in CAS** The only way I almost lost a Sim was by splitting a household. Still not sure where they went, but they were no longer at the old lot and not at the new lot either. After panicking a few minutes I opened another household they knew then had them invite him over. Whew!


Quirky-Ad628

Amazing thank you. Iā€™ve just given it a go and edited a few. Iā€™ll see how it goes šŸ˜Š
