Nightlife also eased several restrictions placed on pool construction prior to the expansion pack, extensions to the pool needed to be a minimum of 2 squares and all pools needed to be rectangular. With Nightlife expansion pack, diagonal pools were introduced, allowing more pool designs to be constructed. However, their body shape flags and chemistry traits will not change unless they are made selectable, or the flags and traits are changed with SimPE. Sims not controlled by the player can increase their fitness level by swimming. However, Sims can re-enter a pool by simply jumping over the edge whilst playing Marco Polo, although the player has no control over this. Sims cannot exit a pool without a pool ladder, and cannot enter one without a ladder, diving board, or pool slide. Sims can float on their backs in the pool, and can play Marco Polo with other Sims. Sims in the pool now have more interactions, although they still will not interact with other Sims in the pool by default.
The Sims 2 also added pool lights, which can be placed on the pool walls. Unlike The Sims, where pools appeared to be opaque, pools in The Sims 2 are translucent, allowing the player to see the bodies of the swimmers and the floor underneath. Much like The Sims, a pool without an entrance to it can simply be used as décor. Swimming pools can only be built on the ground level, which means that a house with a basement can place a swimming pool in it. Pools in The Sims 2 are constructed the same way as The Sims. Multiple Sims can swim in a swimming pool at a time, but they will not interact with each other, and will simply turn around and swim in another direction if they meet. The player can instruct Sims to swim to a specified spot in the pool, but no further interactions can be done. As Sims cannot enter a pool without a diving board or ladder, pools could simply be used as decoration.Ī Sim that enters a swimming pool will swim around in it autonomously. Swimming pools can only be built on the first floor. Pools could not be diagonal, and could not have any objects placed on top of them, excluding pool ladders and diving boards. Pools in The Sims were constructed in horizontal fragments, which could overlap to form bigger pools.
