Sims 2 How do I make my friends sleep at my house without cheats?

I invited two friends(adults) at my house to sleepover,but they complain in the morning that they couldn't sleep.
I even put two single beds in a room,maybe I should separate them in two rooms?

Do I really have to woohoo with a sim if I want him/her to actually sleep at my house?

Hello again,


Since those sims that you invite over are "NPCs", basically (=non-playable characters), you can't directly force them to sleep, unlike the sims from your active household. I remember from The Sims 3, that if non-household sims came over, they slept when thy wanted/needed it, but most often they just left the lot at some point without sleeping. I did not notice strangers in The Sims 2 actually sleeping overnight either, thus far.

Have you considered simply adding that sim into your household in The Sims 2 ? P.S. no, it doesn't matter where you downloaded your TS2 games from, as these in-game mechanics are the same everywhere.

It appears that ONE friend actually slept autonomously on the spare bed now,i'm serious,i tried right after posting this topic,lol,the irony.
but maybe TWO or more sims that aren't friend with each other, won't sleep in the same single room,even if it's separate beds,i think that's the case. 

Personally, I don't care much about in-game details like that. Nonetheless, that's an interesting theory, that I may test myself. Thanks for sharing this !
