Choose Who Your Roommates Are with Choose Your Roommate Mod

Choose Your Roommate Mod is such a useful mod by one of my favorite modders, LittleMsSam (make sure to check out her other mods too)! It allows you to be able to CHOOSE your roommates. You do need Discovery University, in order to be able to use this mod! Discovery University brought back roommates, however; we aren't able to choose who our roommates will be, random sims that are "currently not in world" just show up in response to your roommate add or randomly generate sims.

You can now choose any sim in from any world (in your saved game), a friend, a romantic partner, a cute sim your saw passing by, but also a sim you made for the very purpose of the story you're telling!

P.S. Roommate options may be limited to homeless sims (sims currently not in world), if you are playing enrolled in University and living in on-campus dorm. Otherwise, options include all the sims in your saved game if you are living off-campus or just want a roommate and not enrolled in University at all.
