I don’t mind moving my Sims to other worlds later, but I like to start small. When I play a larger world like Windenberg or my own custom save file, I will stick with one world to start. When I play the base game, I play both Willow Creek AND Oasis Springs for a total of 8 starting households. When I play The Sims 4 rotationally, I choose one or two worlds to focus on. Once I get my spreadsheet set up, my next step is preparing my worlds. You can use it as a guide and/or modify for your own game however you want. The base game spreadsheet includes tabs for Willow Creek and Oasis Springs, with all the starting Sims’ information filled in and color coded.

If you want to use my spreadsheet (includes color legend), you can download it for yourself below. This helps me with planning marriages and partnerships. I also color code my spreadsheet so that I can see at a glance how many Sims of each age group currently do not have partners.
These are the things I keep track of for each Sim on my spreadsheet: If you don’t, you shouldn’t let that stop you from playing this way! Just find a way that works best for you and that you enjoy.
This is just my preferred way to track my Sims because I enjoy spreadsheets and data. You can play without tracking at all, or keep a much simpler system (like a piece of paper with family names that you check off – or even a notepad on your phone). Of course, it isn’t necessary to keep a tracking spreadsheet to play The Sims 4 rotationally. Preview of my Sims 4 Tracking Spreadsheet (Click for larger view.) It helps me plan my game by allowing me to see all my Sims at a glance, decide who might be a good match for each other, and just keep my population organized. When playing rotationally, a spreadsheet helps me keep track of all the Sims in my worlds, their partners, their careers, their aspirations, and any other information I need. Similarly to my Sims 2 tracking spreadsheets, I also keep spreadsheets in The Sims 4.
