Peeping Sims no longer showing up.

[BlueIgloo]

I'm using the latest public release WW 167f.  For some reason my peeping sims no longer show up. Peeping sims worked fine for me until I upgraded to 167d and I believe that was the version that added the  'Create Window Peeping Premade NPC Sims' setting.  I have always been using my own peeping sims by giving them the Peeping Enthusiast trait and it worked great. But now, I get no peeping Sims. I've tried enabling and disabling the 'Create Window Peeping Premade NPC Sims' setting. I've removed and re-added the "Peeping Enthusiast" trait to Sims. I always play for several sims days after making any changes but nothing seems to work. Previously, they would show up at least once every few days and sometimes several days/nights in a row.

Anyone else have this problem or know what I might try to get the peeping sims to work again?

I just tested it in my game, turned off premade Peeping Sims, gave Mortimer the trait and tested if it worked properly using the ww.spawn_peeping_sim command and Mortimer did appear at my Sims' doorstep ready to peep.

Test the game with the command I gave you above, see if maybe you were just unlucky.

Thank you for the help!!!

I ran the command ww.spawn_peeping_sim and the spawn failed. So I checked the log file and found this -

"Attempted and failed to spawn a Peeping Sim - Lot not available for peeping."

 

Which made me realize something that I didn't know before. Apparently peepers don't spawn if you have toddlers and/or babies in the household.

As a test, I moved the children out of the household and tried the spawn command again. It worked!

 

It makes sense, but I guess I didn't realize that children in the household prevented window peepers from spawning. I'm not sure if there's a setting to control this or if it's set that way permanently by design. Thanks again for giving me the tip to figure this out.
