UPDATE: Sims 2 Custom Interaction - Testers Wanted - Mooch Money
Traits version and non-traits version available!
IF YOU JUST DOWNLOADED, REDOWNLOAD lolllll I updated this at 3 pm CST Jan 3
UPDATE AGAIN: Added some checks to make sure the Sim is greeted first, is socially eligible etc.
You need BOTH FILES in the ZIP and Easy Inventory Check/traits for the traits version.
This is a custom interaction using a social controller so it does not edit any globals or modify TTABs. Shouldn't conflict with anything.
I FINALLY worked out how to use these dang social plug-ins!
This mod adds an interaction to the "Ask" menu called "Mooch Money"
One, called "ys2g_mooch_3t2" enables this Interaction for the Mooch Trait only (teens and up)!
Another version, called ys2g_mooch, enables this interaction for all Sims teen and older!
Also, Sims can only mooch from non-household members.
The Sim will ask the Sim for money, and the Sim who is being mooched from will have one of a few responses.
They will either reject you and give you one of two dialogues depending on their personality and mood, or they will accept and loan you a small amount of Simoleons.
Whether they reject or accept is fairly complex. The success of your Sim's Mooch depends on Mood, personality, relationship levels, the other Sim's funds, and randomness.
I say Testers Wanted because I probably didn't test this as thoroughly as I should have but I did play with several Mooch Sims in various households, and it seems to work.
Please don't hesitate to ask or report about any issues.
For some reason, and only sometimes, the amount subtracted from the Sim who is loaning the money appears over their head at the wrong time: before the interaction is even started. Not sure why this happens, because the amount added to the Mooch Sim's family funds appears over their head at the proper time. Nevertheless, it still works as intended. Your Sim receives money, the other Sim loses money.
