There are various ways to determine how long a Sim will live. One way is to look at the traits they have. The active, lone, and normal elders all have different lifespans. The lone elders will have a shorter lifespan than the other two. But even lone elders can still live forty days. These are just a few examples of the different types of Sims.

Elders with Active trait have longer lifespan
The elders in The Sims 4 are the seventh life stage. They may be largely ignored by many players, as EA has not released any Elder-specific content. There are only a few differences between elders and other Sims, such as slower bladder decay and faster energy decay. Regardless, they are worth considering for the added longevity they offer. However, you should be careful when choosing a Sim as an elder, as they can be very hard to manage!
Elders with the Active trait can live longer than other Sims in the game. However, they cannot exercise vigorously, so they can get dangerously tired and can even die from overexertion. The lifespan of elders with this trait is only seventy-five days, but you can always tweak it to make them exercise until they die, even if they’re too old! However, make sure to keep an eye out for their danger signs, because elders are more likely to get tired quickly than other Sims.
You’ll need to be careful when choosing an Elder, as they will die sooner if they are lonely or neglected. However, if they are surrounded by people, they will live longer than others. They can even adopt children and woo their partners if they want to! And while they can’t retire from their careers, they’ll still be able to have long-lasting relationships with their families!
Elders with Long Lived trait have Dangerously Tired moodlet
Older Sims will be slower on their feet, and they’ll most likely acquire the Dangerously Tired moodlet. This means that your elder Sim will become prone to overexertion and may die after exerting himself. The good news is that you can customize this moodlet. Elders with this trait are more difficult to kill, as they’re not as hardy as their younger counterparts.
To make your elder Sims more resilient, you should give them a Discomfort Relief Bath. The green arrows next to the Moodlet icon indicate the time that the Moodlet will fade. The shorter the time until the Peach color goes away, the faster the Elder Sims will be less dangerously tired. You should also try to increase the Elder Sim’s physical fitness level. Despite the fact that this trait is more difficult to reach, it is important to do so.
Overheating is another cause of the Dangerously Tired moodlet. A sim that is exposed to too much heat will die from the disease. If the Sims are exposed to hot weather, they will turn blue and die. The same applies to thunderstorms. A sim can drink water to increase their durability, but if they stay in the heat too long, their health will deteriorate and they will die.
Elders with Good Upbringing trait have Good Upbringing trait
You’ll notice that Elders with Good Upbringing trait live longer than other Elders. These Sims do not die of old age until the green bar is completely filled. Every three to five days, an elder receives an email notification that they are three to five days away from their final moments. To extend their lifespan, you must complete a variety of athletic skills challenges. However, the reward is not all that it seems.
The age of your Sim can be determined by visiting the Simology Panel. This panel displays your Sim’s age and total number of days they have lived. If you want your elder to live longer, make sure he or she has the Bodybuilder ambition. Besides the longevity benefits, elders with Good Upbringing trait live longer in Sims 4 than other elders. However, it is important to remember that the Elders will die sooner if they are neglected or lonely. When the Sim dies, he or she will become a ghost and will disappear from the game.
