A LIVING WORLD
Your Sims live in a varied and dynamic town. Heading down to the local diner for a quick bite, studying at the
library, or fishing at the local pond is just a click away.
In addition to this new freedom to move around the town, The Sims 3 also features an option called
Story Progression. This feature helps keep your town alive and thriving. With Story Progression, your
Sims’ neighbors lives progress normally. Neighbors may move away, new ones will move in, friends get
promotions, neighbors have children, and eventually even die. Basically, life goes on! This feature helps to
keep the neighborhood balanced.
You can, however, choose to disable Story Progression (in the Options menu).
In Live Mode, you can click the button that looks like a skyline (or press M) to open Map View.
