Autonomy was removed from both versions (Cheap and Expensive Computers) for good reasons, meaning that no Sim will touch those computers without your direction. Even if you direct your Sim to influence another Sim to write term papers for your Sim.

FreeTime introduced a whole load of new problems especially with computers. So both versions do not have autonomy. Sims have no reason to go bother other Sims who are using computers, standing there forever or trying to initiate a conversation with a Sim who's busy writing term papers for example. FreeTime, without Pescado, twojeff and other creators' mods to curb autonomous computer behavior, would be almost unbearable.

The ONLY exception are the employees on business lots. They are the only type of visitors allowed to interact with computers on these lots when you direct your Sim to tell the employees to go study badges on the computers. Other types of visitors (shoppers basically) shouldn't be using these computers either.

Sorry about that, but I do hope you will understand why your Sim isn't influencing another Sim to write the term paper for your Sim.


I am planning to update two computers, a Teen Style Computer and a laptop I liked alot to use in my own game. They will be available soon with a couple of new screenshots. Also, I'm not going to update the Sunair Light Computer as I mentioned a couple times. Sorry to those of you who are fans of Sunair's custom computers.

Hope you all have a great day/night!
