Stronger Death Moodlets
With the number of packs available that add countless new moodlets, I found that the default +3 sad moodlets for the deaths of loved ones were often getting overridden by more powerful moodlets. My Sims would be playful or happy despite a close friend or relative having just died. I made a fairly simple tuning mod that overrides these moodlets to make them stronger so your Sims will actually be sad when someone they care about passes away.
Three tuning mods, each in 3 different "flavours." SEE OTHER INFO FOR DETAILS.

An up-to-date copy of The Sims 4 Base Game
To allow you to customize the moodlet strength for different groups of Sims, there are three different downloads:
--- Immediate Family: includes spouses, parents, grandparents, children, siblings, aunts, uncles, nieces, nephews, and first cousins.
--- Distant Family: includes great-grandparents, distant cousins, and other distant relatives.
--- Non-Family: includes friends, good friends, best friends, unmarried romantic partners, and amicably divorced Sims.
Each download comes in three "flavour packs:"
--- Sorrowful - Makes all death reaction moodlets +10 Sad (overrides most other moodlets)
--- Heartbroken - Makes all death reaction moodlets +20 Sad (overrides almost all other moodlets)
--- Devastated - Makes all death reaction moodlets +100 Sad (overrides ALL other moodlets)
The flavour packs are NOT compatible with each other. You can only have one of them installed at a time.
By default, CurseForge will install the Sorrowful flavour pack. To avoid game conflicts, I have uploaded the Heartbroken and Devastated flavour packs as beta releases which do not get installed automatically.
If you would like a stronger flavour pack than Sorrowful, please manually download the flavour pack you prefer.
This mod only affects the strength of the immediate death reaction moodlets. It does not increase the duration of the moodlets.
This mod does not affect the prolonged grief from the Life & Death pack that occurs after the initial mourning period.
This mod does not affect acquaintances, disliked Sims, and family members who dislike each other.
