You can tell a sim is furious by selecting the relationships panel. Any sim whose portrait is coloured with a red haze made the sim furious. Over time, the red colour retreats anticlockwise. When there's no red left, your sim isn't furious anymore. During the fury period if the offending sim does another fury provoking act, what happens depends on how strong the act was. If it was stronger, then it replaces the original fury act and the red starts at the top again. If it's weaker then it is ignored. | You can tell a sim is furious by selecting the relationships panel. Any sim whose portrait is coloured with a red haze made the sim furious.
