Opportunity for Suggestions & Requests ABOUT WHW v2

I'm not doing that because WTDs must take into account the protection system from my mod. I have no idea way to check that je suis yh the WTD module and the protection module are installed, that's the first problem. Secondly, people who use wicked whims won't have my protection items so it will always count as unprotected unless it's not, which would make no sense. So I'm not adding the WTD thing to it, unless at some point I come up with an idea on how to do that and keep the game logical :)

Hi. Is it possible to run WTD risk checking after using the cheat "Mark Sim as WooHoo'd with" (or smth like "Mark Sim as Risky WooHoo'd with" to make different options for protected WooHoo for Cheating Module and unprotected WooHoo for both - cheating and WTD)? It could make WTD somehow available even for those who are using Wicked Whims with "Native Pregnancy Override" set to ON.

Татьяна Воробьева

Yeah, I remember that! I think I'll make tweaks to that today / tomorrow

Lumpinou

Like I spoke with you a while ago... I would like it if the cheater were to be asked by the cheatee to leave their spouse that they not so easily agree to leave them. I also hate that when they are asked to leave them that they are instantly divorced. I totally love that you have helped bring more drama into my game play. I have an entire series going on with multiple families and I'm having so much fun with your mods. Thank you.

Yeah I've been thinking about adding layers of social judgment to the mod, it's something I haven't had the time yet to sit with and map out but sure hope to :)

Lumpinou

Yes that module is still going to come out whenever it's done :)

Lumpinou

also, are you still planning on doing an update at some point to include adoption and an adoption agency? just curious!

Stephanie

would it be possible maybe to have negative reactions when you announce you're pregnant if you're not married or with the father of the baby? like some people could support it and some people could react poorly because of the dad? or maybe a neg reaction if they don't like the father? the last part (the part about not liking the father) sounds like it could be too difficult but i don't know!

Stephanie

This is a tricky question because for some, baby-gender based things of any sort are offensive. For myself I see the point of both parties and understand that and am neutral on the topic (most people mean no harm when they care about a baby's gender and do not go about raising that child like they can't chose another gender for themselves later on the one hand - on the other hand some people do, and thats why I also understand those who want to 'abolish' all sort of baby gender social stuff). So in terms of ibclusivity and representation it's a bit difficult. On the other hand, many people never had the full love of one of their parents because they were the opposite gender of what the parent wished for. And I would like to be able to represent that as well. So I've been holding off of this for that reason of inclusivity of a more free flowing gender culture. I think it will work for second children better, as in, I have a boy I'd like to have a girl to see if it's different, or, I want a sister for my girl, so they can hopefully grow up relating to each other, something like that, which I think is less trouble in terms of offending. For first baby it'd have to be framed very carefully. I think caring about baby gender is still a thing because it helps parents bond or pre bond with the child by imagining what they'll become and be like and relating to them on a person level through the gender dichotomy. This image can change later in life but still I see how it appears as a non inclusive path. So, I want to include everyone and the realities of parenthood all the while keeping awareness and openness to various experiences, which makes this simple matter into a not simple one! :) I'll make something, it be optional, but I want to write it right. If that makes sense. So that its mere existence does not live as a stain on my attempts at ibclusivity. I myself think it should not matter that much what biological gender a baby is born with. But I also can see how someone could start wondering about gender when pregnant

Lumpinou

Hmm. Maybe as an optional thing, but I have to think in what type of optional module it would fit, as I won't have a separate file just for a few moodlets, I'd want more out of it :)

Lumpinou

Is there any way that we could have sims pop up with occasional moodlets relating to their wanting-baby-status? Like broody if they want babies etc? So that their wants can be more immersive? X

Flick Riley

It would be nice if sims had wishes about gender (right like for baby in general). F.e. sim wanted that child and wanted a girl but it's a boy. Or sim wants a child and wants a boy and a newborn is a boy. Or sim doesn't want that child but prefers a girl/boy. Or sim wants / doesn't want a child and has no gender preferences.

Татьяна Воробьева

That’d be cool :-)

motherofpuppies

Cardiel or something like that... it’s on mod the sims in the sims 4 section type better babies mod in the search engine of mod the sims it should come right up :-) it’s super cute!

motherofpuppies

What’s the better babies mod? :o

Stephanie

this might belong better in a different mod, but similar to your "does/does not want a child" traits and "prefers exclusive/non-exclusive realtionships", i'd like love to see an option like that for sims wanting to get married or not. different to the commitment issues trait in that a sim is fine being in a relationship, but doesn't necessarily want to get married.

I got nothing... you put life and soul into a game that didnt have any... between ms Sam, you, Persia, and the better babies mod I can finally play it more

motherofpuppies

This all sounds awesome! I understand it might not be feasible, so no pressure or anything, but I think if would be super cool to see some alternative birth control methods added one day. For example IUDs for sims that can become pregnant which could have greater effectiveness. And then for people such as myself who have historical saves then can choose "natural" or herbal birth control options which would of course be less effective than the hormonal options or condoms. Just a thought but feel free to disregard! This mod is such an essential part of my game now, thank you so much for all of the hard work you put in on giving us such a well rounded addition to game play <3

That makes sense. Thank you for putting the efforts.

It will stay if the relationship doesn't really develop. However the game gives out sentiments so easily it may well be removed by one of the game's o'es at some point. The issue with having it be permanent is that babies from what I've found, if I give them another unwanted child marker than a sentiment, it prevents the son / daughter one from being there. Which is a little troublesome as it would mess with many interactions appearing etc etc. I am still trying to think up ways to maintain the unwanted status even if the sentiment leaves by being over written. My ideal goal would be to have it stay until the Sims make peace, if ever. Babies work so weirdly however that it limits possibilities to some extent... But I'm not done tweaking and trying haha.

Lumpinou

Great job! Thanks for making this happen. I am wondering for unwanted child, if it is possible to add this feature to age beyond children, e.g. the teenage who is an unwanted child from his/her parent will feel sad and they will refuse to talk to the parent, etc...

That sounds great. Thank you.

DeeDaDiva

This could be possible provided that the man is indeed the dad. There won't be any lying possible. But if it is true then that's something I can add. I will give that a shot - along with adding that teen boys can tell their parents about getting someone pregnant, which someone else asked for a while ago and I am going to add to the teen module for v2. Thanks for writing :)

Lumpinou

I don't know if you meant to put it in the comments but I was thinking it would be a nice addition to be able to tell someone's spouse that your pregnant by their partner.
