Why do NPC's walk by the house at night?

Do NPC's (Townies) sleep at all?

[GhostFreeek]

@ani_fl00 Nope!

[ani_fl00]

@GhostFreeek More realistic if they would?

@ani_fl00 Maybe townies are sleeping when we don’t see them. 😴 There are people working nights, so maybe sims walking by your house are on their way to/ from work. 😊

The day/night update was a year ago and don’t know if it was considered to change logic that townies wouldn’t walk by during night. Players do need other sims to be around when doing for example quests & hobbies, so it’s good to have other sims to play air guitar with or talk about gnomes even in the middle of night. 👍

@ani_fl00 The game would look so lonely and empty !

@Ilois4 I don't think that was changed with the day/night update.

Since Sims in TSM don't have needs, they don't sleep. You can manually change day to night and it still will be the same.
