The Sims Freeplay- Profession Careers: Police

weightlessmagic102 Comments

Once you build the Police Station you can begin the Police Career:

This is a profession career so it is a little different from a normal career as you can actually go to work with 2 of your sims and help them during their work day!

You can either go to work with your sims or send them to work offsite, if you send them to work offsite this means you won’t see them at the police station. But you can go to work with your sim if you select send alone or accompany sim and then they can help sims and earn resources (only two sims can be at the police station at one time, all other sims with this career have to work offsite)

When you send a sim to work at the police station sims will enter with bubbles above their heads, you need to click on this bubble and select one of the tasks that appears, the amount of grey sections there are tells you how many tasks you have to complete before you earn the reward that is pictured in the middle of the bubble:

Once you have built the police station 3 workstations will already be unlocked (Front Desk, Training Center and Surveillance Van) so you can start helping sims by completing actions using these workstations, you will see options similar to the image below when you click on one of the bubbles:

Each of these has to be completed in a different workstation so file police report is at the front desk, receive motivation is in the training center and check police video is in the surveillance van

TIP: if you are unsure which workstation is required it tells you above the action!

Only one sim can use a workstation at one time (new tasks will be added when you unlock new workstations, keep reading for more information)

Each time your sims complete a task (that section will turn from grey to green) a police coin bubble will appear above their head, click this and they will earn police coins and XPs, the experience points are towards levelling up, so they will level up quicker than if you just sent them to work.

Once all the tasks have been completed all the grey sections will now appear green, click on this to receive your reward (the rewards are police coins and resources used to upgrade the different workstations at the police station):

I am not going to go into too much detail about how to complete Profession Careers here, if you are still unsure check out my Guide to Profession Careers for more information on how they work!

HOURS

You can send your sims to work anytime for 8 hours but if you are helping sims they can finish early if they reach the quota, they need to help 25 sims (you need to complete all the tasks for a sim to have helped one sim) during their shift, then they will end their shift early and you earn extra police coins and resources. Both sims can help the same sims and each time one of them finishes helping a sim they will both have helped one sim:

If they are working offsite they will just work for 8 hours and they won’t earn any resources as they won’t be helping any sims.

LEVELS

All sims completing this career will be able to reach level 6:

 LEVEL  MONEY XPs
1 Cadet S1,165 300
2 Deputy S1,260 480
3 Trooper S1,355 660
4 Corporal S1,450 840
5 Sergeant S1,545 1020
6 Sergeant S1,640 1200

Then only 2 sims, once they reach level 6 can choose to be either Metro Police or Special Agent, only one sim can be metro police and one sim can be special agent, all other sims will stay as level 6 sergeant.

Metro Police– when your sim specialises as Metro Police they can continue to level up and unlock more workstations:

 LEVEL  MONEY XPs WORKSTATION UNLOCKED
6 Patrol Sim S1,640 1,200 Squad Car
7 Lieutenant S1,735 1,380 Jail Cells
8 Captain S1,830 1,560 K-9 Unit
9 Division Chief S1,925 1,740 Chiefs Office
10 Police Commissioner S2,020 1,920 –

Once you unlock the workstation you have to use the resources to build it before you can help sims using these workstations, only the metro police will be able to complete tasks to help sims that require one of the workstations above. I will be going into detail about workstations later in this post.

Special Agent– when your sim specialises as a Special Agent they can continue to level up and unlock more workstations:

 LEVEL  MONEY XPs WORKSTATION UNLOCKED
6 Investigator S1,640 1,200 Interview Room
7 Detective S1,735 1,380 Sketch Room
8 Super Sleuth S1,830 1,560 Forensics Lab
9 Secret Agent S1,925 1,740 Division 51
10 Sim-In-Black S2,020 1,920 –

Once you unlock the workstation you have to use the resources to build it before you can help sims using these workstations, only the special agent will be able to complete tasks to help sims that require one of the workstations above. I will be going into detail about workstations later in this post.

When your sim specialises they have to fulfil profession badges before they can level up (check the occupations tab to find out what you need to do to complete this):


Each sim can only earn one badge per shift and you need all badges before you will be able to level up in this career 

Badges needed:

Level  Metro Special Agent
6 Help 3 Sims Help 3 Sims
6 Collect 5,000 coins Collect 5,000 coins
6 Help 2 Important Sims Help 2 Important Sims
7 Help 16 Sims Help 16 Sims
7 Collect 10 Handcuff Resources Collect 10 Fingerprint Resources
7 Collect 6,000 coins Collect 6,000 coins
7 Help 2 Important Sims Help 2 Important Sims
8 Collect 20 Donut Resources Collect 20 Donut Resources
8 Collect 7,000 coins Collect 7,000 coins
8 Help 18 Sims Help 18 Sims
8 Help 2 Important Sims Help 2 Important Sims
8 Collect 3 Police Tape Resources Collect 3 Recorder Resources
9 Collect 8,000 coins Collect 8,000 coins
9 Help 7 Sims Help 7 Sims
9 Help 2 Important Sims Help 2 Important Sims
9 Collect 5 Police Tape Resources Collect 5 Recorder Resources
9 Collect 10,000 coins Collect 10,000 coins
9 Help 8 Sims Help 8 Sims

If you don’t manage to complete a badge in a shift the progress for that badge will reset and you will have to start again on the next shift (for example, if your task is to help 2 important sims and you only help one, in your next shift it will reset so you will have to help 2 important sims in that shift to get the badge)

Each level requires you to complete more badges, you cannot level up until all the badges have been collected.

Who are the important sims I need to help to get a badge?

These are the sims with question marks in the bubbles above their heads:

When you reach level 10 in a profession career you unlock the work outfit in that specialist for a female and male adult sim to wear at any time, you can find these in the wardrobe under outfits:

Left- metro police outfits Right- special agent outfits

Remember:

  • You can only go to work with 2 sims at a time, all other sims in this career will work offsite so you won’t see them during the day
  • Only one sim can use a workstation at one time
  • If you don’t know how Profession Careers work read my guide

Workstations

The workstations require resources to upgrade them so the time an action takes will decrease and the coins and XPs you earn for each action will increase. The resources are shown below:

Some resources are not unlocked yet, build new workstations to unlock them

You can see the resources you have in the second tab of the professions menu under storage (you can access this using the button in the top left hand corner of your screen when you are at the police station)

In the professions menu you can see:

  • Workplace Overview- here you can see the workstations you have currently unlocked, what level you are on and what resources you need to upgrade them
  • Storage- this is where you see your current resources collected and on the right hand side is your police coins, the police coins are used to increase your storage if you need to and trade for resources (which is in the next tab)
  • Resource Exchange- here you can either spin for resources using simoleons or LPs for the mega spin as well as trade police coins for resources

The tables below show the upgrade resources needed, the time each upgrade will take and the time an action takes and the amount of coins and XP you earn when you complete each action, only one of these will upgrade each time so if the time taken decreases then the amount of coins and XP you earn will stay the same until you upgrade again and then the amount of coins you earn will increase while the time taken and XP will stay the same.

NOTE: you can only upgrade one workstation at a time unless you are VIP

If you don’t have the amount of resources you need it will say it costs LP, when you have the right amount of resources you can build/ upgrade the workstation without LP (you know you have all the resources you need when there are ticks next to all the resources):  When you upgrade each workstation to level 10 and 20 there will be a visual upgrade to the workstation, those pictures are shown below each of the tables.

NOTE: you can only upgrade one workstation at a time unless you are VIP

Are there items for my home that can increase my sims job level? So far there isn’t anything for the police career

Orange Suitcase? Can’t send your sims to work?

This is because you have already sent them to work once today, if you are VIP level 1 you can send them to work twice in a day (this will cost you 15LP still if you are VIP)

Wait until tomorrow and you will be able to send them to work again without being VIP.

Do I need to be VIP to use the police station?

NO! If you are VIP you can send your sims to work twice a day (VIP level 1), upgrade more than one workstation at a time (VIP level 7) and use the mega spin (VIP level 2) but you do not have to be VIP

Watch my step by step video of the quest here:

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS ABOUT THIS QUEST

please read before asking

How do I start this discovery quest?
Once you have completed the simtown express quest you can build downtown high to start this quest

Why can’t I do this discovery quest yet?
You cannot do more than one discovery quest at the same time, if you are currently on another one (the list can be found here) you will not be able to do this one until that one is completed

Can I do discovery quests at the same time as a main quest?
Yes you can

Do I have to do this quest?
If you don’t start building downtown high you don’t have to do this quest at all but if you have already started building or started this quest you need to complete it before you can move on to the next quest

I haven’t started this quest yet, will it still be available when I want to do it?
Yes it will be, you can choose to start it whenever you like

How do I send my sim to downtown high?
Go to downtown high and click on the whistle next to a sim who isn’t busy on the simtracker, this post explains more about the simtracker

How do I call the principal?
Click on the sim with the plumbob above their head to get the option

For ‘photograph Vernon’ will it work with a horse or parrot?
No, you have to use a dog, cat or another pet brought from the pet store to complete this

What do I get if I complete this quest in the time limit?
You unlock the teacup pig

What does the pig do?
They don’t really do anything! They don’t find money like dogs or cats

Is there anything in the pet section for pigs?
No, there isn’t

What happens if I don’t complete in the time limit, can I still finish this quest?
Yes you have to finish it to unlock the class clown hobby before you can move onto the next quest

I didn’t complete in the time limit, can I restart the quest?
No, you cannot redo quests

Can I still get the prize if I don’t complete in the time limit?
No, the only way to get the limited time prizes is by completing the quest in the time limit

I don’t like this quest! Can I just skip it?
No, you have to complete this quest before you can move onto the next one now that you have started it, if you don’t start building downtown high you don’t have to do this quest but once it is built the quest will begin

Some times are slightly different on my game, why is this?
Times may vary depending on the star rating of the item you are using, as the higher star rating an item has the quicker you will complete a goal

Some times are really off/ different goals show for me, why is this?
This will be because the quest has been updated recently, I try my best to keep these posts up to date but it is difficult as I cannot redo every quest each time the game is updated. If you notice any changes please let me know so I can update the post

This quest unlocks the class clown hobby, does the time limit start straight away once I have completed this quest?
Yes, the time limit for the hobby starts straight away once this quest is complete, you can click no when the hobby pop up appears but this does not stop the timer going down

TIP: you can only have one sim in each room so when you first complete this hobby you can only really use one sim, once you have unlocked all the rooms you can have up to 4 sims completing this hobby.

 You can now complete the collection!

After the time has passed come back and click the exclamation mark above your sims head to find one of the class clown collectibles in that row. You still level up in this hobby but the hobby level up percentage isn’t important as the class clown collectibles don’t unlock depending on your level, when you finish a row of class clown collectibles you will unlock the ability to find the clown actions in the next row.

The table below shows you the level up reward that your sims will receive when they level up in this hobby:

 LEVEL  TITLE 1st TIME LEVEL UP REWARD
1 Novice Agitator –
2 Junior Jester 250XP
3 Commensurate Comedian 500XP

5 Veteran Vaudevillian 10,000 Town Value
6 Elite Disruptor 1LP

You won’t find a new collectible each time, you will get repeats, if this happens just keep going, you will find them eventually! If it is still taking too long you can use the lucky spin on the row where you cannot find the item, this will cost LPs, when you click on the LP button it will clear the row and give you a random collectible on that row so you aren’t guaranteed a new item (you will get back any other collectibles you already had in that row) Need to earn some LPs to use the lucky spin?

The completed class clown collection is shown below, once you complete the collection you need to click ‘start a new collection’ at the top of the hobby collection screen, this clears the board so you can complete the collection again to earn more rewards (you will only get the option to restart the hobby collection when you have completed the collection):

The first time you complete a row you will unlock a new classroom to find the new class clown actions, further times you will earn XPs when you complete a row in the hobby but to complete the collection you need to find all 12 of the collectibles

If you complete this hobby in the time limit you will unlock the cheerleader outfits which can be found in the wardrobe for adult and teen sims, you can also find the pom poms on the sports field:

The outfits for teens and adults are the same

The rewards for completing this collection are the second floor of downtown high and 2LP:

  • The first time you complete this collection you unlock the second floor of downtown high (even if you don’t manage to complete in the time limit) There are 3 rooms to build upstairs:
  1. Principal’s Office and Staffroom- takes 5 hours and costs S25,000
  2. Math Classroom- takes 3 hours and costs S20,000
  3. Social Science Classroom- takes 3 hours and costs S20,000


  • From the second time onwards each time you complete the collection you will earn 2LP

The Sims Freeplay- Mean Curls Hairstyles Review

weightlessmagic17 Comments

This is my review of the hairstyles you unlock in the Mean Curls Time Limited Hobby Event, I will be ranking them from 9 to 1 with 1 being my favourite- this was really difficult as there is only one of these which I really don’t like!

If you completed this event in the time limit you will be able to find these hairstyles in your wardrobe for your adult female sims.

9. I don’t like how this one is flat at the top and the rest is curly- it just looks odd! It does look better from the back though.

8. This hairstyle is very current (it’s impossible to leave the house without seeing someone with this style) I’m just not very keen on this hairstyle!

7. Really interesting short hairstyle, looks great from the side, not such a fan of how it looks from the front. I really like it in the darker colours, I don’t think it looks as good on this sim in the natural brown but the purple really works!

6. I like this but it does look a bit like this sim has really dry damaged hair!

5. You get a surprise when you put this one on your sim as this hairstyle is braided on one side, again really modern and a nice style!

4. I prefer how it looks from the back rather than the front but I think the two tone colours work really well with this one

3. Beautiful style and it works well in all the colours!

2. Really love this, we needed some modern shorter hair! More like this in future please!

1. This is my absolute favourite, I think it works in all the colours- especially in the purpley colour (as shown in the image on the right)

Which one is your favourite?

Thanks for reading!

The Sims Freeplay- How To Complete Live Events [Craft Challenges]

weightlessmagic125 Comments

Live events (or as they are now called Craft Challenges) are tricky to complete in the time limit so this post explains how to complete live events with tips so you can try and complete every live event the first time around!

What are live events?

Live events are time limited events that last for a certain amount of days (if you don’t play the game during that time you will miss out on these events) The aim of them is to collect arts and crafts items from 4 crafting stations which are the resources you need to unlock and buy items in the event, if you manage to unlock and purchase all of the items in the time limit then you unlock the grand prize.

You can find a list of live events that have been in the game previously here

I think it is important to say that live events are hard and if you cannot be on the game every few hours to collect from the stations then it can be very difficult to complete, live events are often repeated so if you don’t manage to complete it the first time, don’t panic as it will probably be back again at some point. When it does return you will start from where you got to the first time so if you only had one pack left to buy then you will have the full time limit the second time to try and purchase that final pack to complete the live event.

How do live events work?

A pop up will appear to tell you a live event has started, click start collecting to begin the first goal:

The goals for each live event are almost the same apart from the event button and the first pack you buy during these goals:

  • Place a crafting station– find the candle station in the events tab of buy mode. If you participated in another live event then you will find your arts and crafts stations in your inventory (or in the house you left them at) you will only be able to use the candle ones until you unlock the other stations in this event
  • Make some arts and crafts items (click on the candle station to make)- 23 seconds TIP: buy all 4 stations so you can have 4 sims making the candles for 23 seconds, this means you will earn 200 candles instantly instead of just 50!

Once they have made the candles, a bubble with a candle in it will appear above their head, click on this and this takes you to the prize progress tab (you can also get to this by clicking on the event button in the corner of the screen)

Here you will see you have collected enough items to unlock the first pack! You need to unlock each pack and purchase them with the arts and crafts items you make before the items are available in your home store- this goal is coming up.

  • Restock a crafting station- when the stock runs out you will have to restock before you can make anymore arts and crafts items. You can restock instantly for 18 uses which will cost you 10SP or restock for 2 uses which will take 10 seconds this time (after this time you can restock 9 uses which will be free but will take 2 hours and 30 minutes to restock) TIP: again have all 4 sims restock the stations so you have 2 uses on each
  • Buy the first pack– click on the event button, scroll down and click purchase (this will cost you 50 candles) once purchased you will find the item(s) in buy mode to place in your sims houses
  • Use a coin flower patch- buy the coin flower patch from the event tab of the home store and select the free spin plant option. The coin flower patch is how you earn constructor coins which are also needed to purchase packs. After this time it will cost 450 candles to use the spin plant and 25SP to use the mega spin plant- but you will earn more constructor coins by using the mega plant (the minimum is 10 and the maximum is 500)
  • Check the daily goals- click on the event button in the corner and go to the first tab which is daily goals- claim the ones you can right now and check back throughout the day to claim all your daily goals and earn your 20 constructor coin bonus!
  • Collect bonuses- while collecting after a certain amount of time you will see the arts and crafts item appear above that sims head, click to collect the bonus item!

  • Continue collecting arts and crafts items- this is the last step but the event is not over, keep collecting the arts and crafts to unlock everything on the bar at the top of your progress tab and then use those arts and crafts items and constructor coins to purchase all those packs.

There are 3 parts to these events if you want to complete them in the time limit you have to complete all 3 parts; collecting, unlocking and buying

Collecting

Once you have completed the goals you need to put your sims on the candle stations to continue collecting candles, you can place a maximum of 4 candle stations, as you unlock the rest of the stations there is a limit on those too:

  • 4 Pottery Stations
  • 3 Jewelry Stations
  • 2 Glassware Stations

You won’t need to buy new stations each time there is an event on, I keep mine in 2 houses so they are stocked and ready for the next event

Once you have placed your candle stations you can select one of 4 options:

  • Make 250 Candles- 2 hours 30 minutes
  • Make 360 Candles- 4 hours 30 minutes
  • Make 455 Candles- 6 hours 30 minutes
  • Make 510 Candles- 8 hours 30 minutes

From these stats it looks like the 8 hour 30 minute option is the best but actually if you did the 2 hour 30 minute option 3 times (7 hours 30 minutes) you will earn 750 candles rather than 510! So if you can do the shortest option over and over again throughout the day then you will earn a lot more resources but obviously if you are going to be out all day then it would be better to do a longer option.

Other Station Times

Pottery:

  • Collect 375 Pottery- 2 hours 30 minutes
  • Collect 540 Pottery- 4 hours 30 minutes
  • Collect 680 Pottery- 6 hours 30 minutes
  • Collect 765 Pottery- 8 hours 30 minutes

Jewelry:

  • Collect 565 Jewelry- 2 hours 30 minutes
  • Collect 810 Jewelry- 4 hours 30 minutes
  • Collect 1025 Jewelry- 6 hours 30 minutes
  • Collect 1150 Jewelry- 8 hours 30 minutes

Glassware:

  • Collect 620 Glass- 2 hours 30 minutes
  • Collect 890 Glass- 4 hours 30 minutes
  • Collect 1125 Glass- 6 hours 30 minutes
  • Collect  1260 Glass- 8 hours 30 minutes

Remember you will need to restock the stations occasionally, you can restock instantly for 18 uses but this will cost you 10SP or you can restock 9 uses, this is free but it will take you 2 hours 30 minutes to restock:

Each station (apart from the first candle one) comes with a stock of 7 which means you can use the station 7 times before it needs to be restocked (if you got your stations out of your inventory they will all need restocking first (apart from the first candle one)

NOTE:

  • if you store the station you will lose all the stock so when you place it again you will need to restock
  • if you cancel making something using a station you will lose that stock so if you had one stock left and then you cancelled that action you would need to restock before you can create anymore arts and crafts items

The more arts and crafts items you make the more items you will unlock

Collecting Bonuses

While collecting after a certain amount of time you will see the arts and crafts item appear above that sims head, these are bonus items (when you click on a sim making arts and crafts items you can see underneath the time how many bonus items are available):

You don’t have to collect the bonus every minute but there is a point where the maximum bonus points have been stored so to avoid missing out to any of the bonuses you need to check the game regularly. The table below shows how often you need to check the game to collect all the bonuses.

Regular means the normal amount you would earn, the bonus is the maximum bonus for that station and the time is how long before the maximum bonus is stored, for example the glassware station will normally give you 620 glassware but you can get 100 bonus, if you check back on the game every 15 minutes you will earn 10 glassware:

 STATIONS 2 hours 30 minutes 4 hours 30 minutes 6 hours 30 minutes 8 hours 30 minutes
Regular Bonus 15 mins Regular Bonus 27 mins Regular Bonus 39 mins Regular Bonus 51 mins
Candles 250 100 10 360 140 14 455 155 15 510 240 24
Pottery 375 100 10 540 160 16 680 200 20 765 290 29
Jewelry 565 100 10 810 160 16 1,025 200 20 1,150 325 32
Glassware 620 100 10 890 200 20 1,125 220 22 1,260 400 40

Thank you so much to Hershey for providing the above information!

PLEASE NOTE: if your sims are inspired you will miss out on some of the bonus arts and crafts items as they haven’t updated the formula AND if you are planning to use social points to speed up you will get all the bonuses anyway

Unlocking

The bar at the top of your personal progress tab shows you the items you have already unlocked and those you are yet to unlock, as well as how many resources you need to collect to unlock the next item:

You unlock different items here:

  • Items to purchase– these are the packs that you need to use your resources to buy once you have unlocked them to be able to find that item in your home store (this is explained more in the buying part of this post)
  • Constructor Coins– these are a resource needed to purchase those items mentioned above. You can also earn them on the spin plants but they are probably the hardest item to earn in these events

  • Arts and Crafts Stations– you have already unlocked the candle station but you will need the pottery, jewelry and glassware stations too to be able to make those arts and crafts items to buy the items you unlock

TIP: make sure you place the new arts and crafts stations you unlock as soon as you unlock them so you don’t waste any time, if you previously unlocked them in another live event you will have to still unlock them again before you can use them in this event

  • Social Points– as this event uses social points to speed up actions as well as purchase any resources you still need if you haven’t reached the required amount, you get a few as a reward in these events- they aren’t that generous with them so don’t rely on them to help you complete the event!

TIP: instead of wasting all your SP trying to earn the last resources you need for a pack why not wait for the event to return again in the future? When it does return you will start from where you got to the first time so if you only had one pack left to buy then you will have the full time limit the second time to try and purchase that final pack to complete the live event.

Buying

To buy an item you need to use the resources you collect from the arts and crafts stations as well as constructor coins as currency so if an item costs you 50 candles to purchase and you have 60 candles then you will have 10 candles left after you purchased that item. You can see the current amount of resources you have in the inventory in the progress tab:

 

Below is how an item appears in your progress tab at different stages of the event:

The first picture shows the item is locked, this is how you will see an item when you haven’t collected enough arts and crafts items to reach that item on the bar at the top of your personal progress tab, keep collecting and it will unlock, the unlock symbol will either be orange or green.

The orange unlock symbol as you can see in the second picture means that you have unlocked this item but you do not have enough resources to buy it yet unless you use social points. You don’t have to use social points though, you just need to keep collecting the resources you need by using the arts and crafts stations and the spin plant to earn constructor coins

TIP: if you are unsure what resources you need under requirements there will be a box for each resource you need, the first number under the resource picture is how many resources you currently have and the second number is how many resources you need, if you have enough resources the box will be orange, if you don’t have enough resources the box is blue. You can tell straight away in the picture that I don’t have enough constructor coins to buy the fine dining items pack yet.

The green unlock symbol means you have all the resources you need, click purchase to use those resources to buy the pack, you will then be able to find the items in your home store or wardrobe (depending on the item)

TIP: a pop up will appear saying you have unlocked that pack and where to find your items so make sure you read it

How do you earn constructor coins?

They don’t make constructor coins easy to earn! In my experience with these events I can collect enough arts and crafts items but I am let down by how impossible they make it to earn constructor coins:

  • Personal Progress prizes– as mentioned in the unlocking section you will earn constructor coins when you collect enough resources to unlock that reward on the progress bar
  • Completing Daily Goals– you will earn constructor coins when you complete daily goals and if you manage to complete them all in a day you will earn 20 bonus constructor coins, make sure you collect them every day during the event!
  • Coin Flower Patches– there are two types of coin flower patches, the spin plant which costs 450 candles each time you spin and the mega spin plant which costs 25SP each time you spin but you will earn more constructor coins (personally I never use the mega spin plant, I just earn as many candles as possible to use on the normal spin plant) When you use the plant it will spin and you will earn a certain amount of coins, usually with the spin plant you only get 1-2 coins most times which can be the difference between completing the event in time or not! If the luck is in your favour you can win up to 125 constructor coins on the spin plant and 500 on the mega spin plant with the minimum on the mega spin plant being 10 coins.

If you manage to unlock and buy all the packs during the time limit you can click claim on the prize pack, you will only be able to claim this pack if you have brought all the other packs:

If you didn’t manage to complete in the time you have a few days after the event is over to purchase any packs you have left but you cannot collect anymore arts and crafts items or constructor coins during this time. If you don’t have the requirements you need you can use social points or you could just wait for the event to return in the future!

Once the event is over it will convert your unused resources into simoleons, the conversion rate is half the amount of resources, for example, if you have 10,000 candles left over you will earn 5,000 simoleons, if you only have 1 of a resource left over you will only earn 1 simoleon. When a new live event becomes available you start from 0 resources

Tips:

  • When completing the goals place all 4 candle stations straight away and then you can put a sim on each station to collect candles for 23 seconds, this way you will start with 200 candles instead of just 50!
  • Also in the goals when you have to restock, restock all of them so you have 2 uses on each of them instead of just one station
  • Do the 2 hour 30 minute option as much as you can, you will find the most arts and crafts items this way
  • Remember to complete and collect your daily rewards every day- you will earn 20 bonus constructor coins if you do!
  • If you can collect the bonuses every 15 minutes or so then you will earn even more resources, if you use social points to speed up the task (most people leave until the last minute possible to speed up so you don’t have to use as many social points) then you will earn all the bonuses
  • Buy all the stations and have a sim on each to earn the most resources
  • Keep collecting candles throughout the event, you won’t need them to buy all the packs but you can use your spare candles on the spin plant to earn constructor coins rather than using the mega spin plant that costs social points
  • If you want to use the mega spin plant but don’t have enough social points then complete the cooking hobby to earn 20LP and use them on the social point flower to earn social points (this isn’t that great anymore as they have increased the cost of the social point flower from 5 to 20LP but it may still help) Click here to find out how to earn LP quickly with the cooking hobby
  • If you know you won’t be able to complete the event then just buy the packs that you really want- you don’t have to buy them in order!
  • The time limit is the same for everyone, if you start late then you will have less days to complete the event- I create a post for each live event so subscribe here if you don’t want to miss an event or start late
  • Resources don’t transfer to future events they get converted into simoleons, so if you have 100 constructor coins and 1,000 pottery left over you will earn 550 simoleons for them and in the next event you will start with 0 constructor coins and 0 pottery
  • Don’t store your stations at the end of an event, if you store them you will have to restock before you can use them again, create a room for them instead! (only put 10 stations in one house as only 10 sims can be in a house at one time) That way you will still have stock left over from the previous event to use on the next!
  • Don’t panic if you cannot complete an event in the time limit, these events do return and when they do you will start from where you got to last time so you can try to complete it then without wasting all your social points completing it the first time

Is there anything to make the events easier?

Laura Craft doesn’t guarantee you will complete the event but you can purchase her for real money, you select the item you want her to make from the options: 200 candles, 300 pottery, 450 jewelry or 500 glassware (you will unlock all the options once you have unlocked all the stations) and you will be able to collect them after 2 hours.

BUT you have to buy her for each live event

Do I think she is worth it? They have improved Laura Craft a lot since the first event (although it would be great if she made constructor coins) she used to be able to collect every 8 hours, they have now changed this to 2 hours so she is more useful now so if you are struggling then you may want to splash out and give her a try but remember you will only get her for the current event, you will have to buy her again to use her for a live event in the future.
