Illness and Injuries
I'd like more illness and injuries in Sims 3.
If I'm not mistaken Sims live perfectly healthy lives in Sims 2 - besides when they get sick during pregnancy or catch an illness which goes away a few Sim hours later.
In Sims 3 I think it would be cool if Sims could catch an illness (common things like a headache, a cold, a stomach bug etc) and have it last longer than a few Sim hours. These could also be spread if they come into contact with other Sims (potentially causing a neighbourhood epidemic!). They'll have to rest, eat well, etc to get better... if they don't the illness will prolong and affect their mood even more. I wouldn't like Sims to die - that'd be a bit drastic - but I'd like them to be affected.
I'd also like Sims to sustain injuries and actually be affected by them and having to do something about it in order to feel relief. Everyday things like cutting themselves on a knife while preparing food, burning themselves on a stove or grazing their knees after falling over. Again, this should affect their mood until they've treated it - placed a bandaid on the cut, ran their hand under water... or child Sims may want a hug and a kiss from their parent lol?
Maybe there could be an interaction with the hospital building in regards to this as well? Like visiting that building due to an illness or injury, coming out feeling better (doesn't need to be completely interactive, in the sense that we see what goes on - just something simple) or phoning a doctor or a friend for advice and doing whatever it is your Sim is adviced to at home.
What do you think about this?
