[NEEDS INPUT] [ROM] Sims dying of old age despite immortality potion [ Edited ]

[Sid1701d9]

Has anyone checked to see if any sim was in the middle of aging or in pregnancy stage as that overrides potion effect.  Also When a sim is pregnant their age bar is frozen once in labor, she/he will not age until child is born, after child is born aging will begin the same day.  It might be possible after getting pregnant their aging resumes ignoring the immorality trait.  I notice potions don't work on sims that are in the aging stage, they won't work on NPC service sims because, especially, in City Living as Non Played service sims won't die, because they got the age freeze trait for being one of the few city employees.

@Sid1701d9 Nah, not applicable in my case. Both were Elders and far from dying.

@Sid1701d9 Nice idea, BUT the sims I gave potions to were either male YA, Adult, and never got alien pregnant, female YA, Adult, but never got pregnant nor had children, Morgyn, or Elders of either gender. It doesn't matter what age, gender, or whatever you give the potion doesnt work. The only way it "works" (from my testing at least) is if you give them the potion and STAY THERE ON THAT LOT forever. You can travel, but if you play rotationaly loading a different household breaks the trait somehow. When they reach Elder and the green bar fills up to the day they are supposed to die, they stay alive for weeks, months after... As long as you stay there. Once you switch houses and assuming someone in other the household knows your "immortal" sim, the second you load the lot you get a death notification text.

I spent WAY TOO MUCH TIME experimenting with this. I gave up and have been using the mod that basically fixes the issue since.

@aidans1985 Still not solved? Really?

I play rotationally with aging set to "Active household only."

So far the immortality potion has been working for the two Sims in different households I've given it to. Whether it's working as intended? I don't know.

The age bar is full.

"Elderly Demise" shows up in their queues and cancels everything else, but nothing happens and they go on with their living. Maybe this is intended, but... ?

So far neither has died while I'm playing with another household, but that is probably because aging is disabled for in-active households with the "only active" setting I use. 

But.... It seems like if a Sim is "immune" from aging they should be immune, whether one is actively playing them or not, regardless of the setting.

I'm experiencing the same issue. The link will take you to a save file via Google Drive.

Both of my elderly sims drank the potion of immortality and have the immortal trait, yet both of them have filled up, shimmering age bars indicating they are about to die of old age... They've both already died of old age multiple times but I kept bringing them back with the potion of resurrection. They always end up dying nevertheless.

I gave them the potion as young adults. Maybe that's the problem?

@Polyxeniae Still not fixed 😳😞🤔
