Reddit user TheAlexer pointed out this cute little easter egg that apparently wasn’t there in The Sims 4 until recently – ok so some simmers are reporting that this was present in the game for quite some time but it’s still an interesting easter egg that not many have noticed (including me).
The easter egg is the ability to change the shape of the puddle in build mode into a duck. Now, you can’t change just any puddle into a duck – you can only change the biggest puddle there is in the game into a duck puddle.
The easiest way to make a puddle is to break a sink and wait a few Sim hours until the puddle grows really big:

After it’s fully grown, go into Build Mode and select the Design Tool. You’ll notice that you can change shapes of a puddle:

Select the 4th design option and voila – you have a duck puddle!

I found the texture in the game files awhile back, but I didn’t realise it was something that was accessible in-game.
I wonder how it was ever intended to be used?

probably something they added them realised was completely useless, but never bothered to remove it cuz no one knew about it anyway xD
That’s cute feature but unnecessary. I hate when things break down 🙁 I have my sims fix it asap!
