doesn't matter if ya bump it to me... just thought i'd be helpful and put a link to it

I also read it after Frizzie told me (I apologise for not searching before posting this).
But it also hasn't helped much.

The problem I am having isn't that my toons won't sleep... it's that they don't gain much energy after doing so. Even alternating between napping and sleeping.

Emm, me too--they sometimes will sleep but gain no energy. But I guess if they're not getting sick it's not a huge deal.

For me when they wake up from sleeping still tired they all by themselves go take a nap... But then again I got them to do that by praising napping and sleeping to the point of them being annoyed

Like you, mine have no problem sleeping or napping, they will do it themselves, because I too have been praising them alot.
But it seems to have little to no effect on their energy bar.

Really? Because that's not the case here, they will fall asleep in bed exhausted, wake up still tired (takes a min for the bar to register the increase) then go for a nap. By the time they wake up from the nap they are at about half full for an energy bar.

It seems the game is making a fool out of me.
Now that I have been complaining about it, my toons seem to have gotten better at raising their energy.
Although my male toon still becomes tired again very soon after napping.

emmote - I have also found if you leave for a little while and come back to one exhausted (like the father in my little family) you'll also notice he's gained greatly in his career. For me anyway, I guess I shouldn't say it'll work that way for everyone, someone's could've been up forever playing a video game lol.

It's so random for me. sometimes they sleep and gain no energy on the bar. Sometimes they sleep then nap then gain a full bar. It's so frustrating!
