A dodge that I now use is to switch to my Sim-free building 'hood (called "Aedicia") before quitting. It seemed that I quite often got crashes when quitting. The game tends to save about a third of the character files when quitting. But Aedicia doesn't have any character files, so there's (almost) nothing to go wrong there. Since there are no Sims to play there, I can't possibly lose gameplay when I close it.
By the way the name Aedicia is essentially meaningless. I tried to form it from the Latin word Aedificare, meaning "to build". But it's the root "-fic-" from facere) that actually means "to make or build" so by missing it out, I made the name meaningless. But if I'd left it in, it would have sounded too much like "edifice"!

Edifice sounds like a good name for a building hood. The game shouldn't save when quitting unless you ask it to.

Usually by invitation (including of course marriage). But, if you're in a hurry, you can use a teleporter. But for myself I find find it far more fun to build up a friendship over time until they're happy to accept the invitation to "Move in". As you probably all know, I spend a lot of my time playing teens. I have mods (by pinhead) that allow teens (and even children) to invite friends to move in, and to accept such invitations. (I also have one to allow teens to move out.) These mods were (as far as I know) never updated for the later EPs. Not by pinhead anyway. These mods are now the main reason for me not adding more EPs. I would, though, rather like my Sims to be able to have pets. Maybe the best solution would be for me to learn enough about Simantic scripting to update the mods myself.

Not by Pinhead, but it seemed ridiculous to me that someone wouldn't have done it.
