Testers Wanted! - “Fight or Flight” Fire Reaction Overhaul
Hi everyone, if you are interested in trying this mod out, please let me know, and I will personally send you a link to the upload. The reason for this is because the Panic interaction has been extensively modded, and keeping the tester pool smaller will help with keeping track of what’s going on in other people’s games. More info is after the cut! (Please excuse the lot this was tested on...)
I created a mod that revamped how Sims (and dogs/cats) react to fires. Sims (and dogs/cats) will now rush outside in the event of a fire. To be more specific, Sims will route to an object on the lot in question, for example, on a community lot they will route to a phone booth. In a dorm/apartment/home, Sims will route to the mailbox.
In an owned business, customers will exit the building, and customer loyalty will decrease if customers can see the fire. Group outings will also be affected negatively still. In the event a baby/toddler is in the same room as the fire, Sims will still save the baby/toddler in question, though they appear to run out first, (have an “oh shit” moment) run back in, and grab the baby and take them outside. I’m working on that...
This mod modifies the “Panic” and “Leave Building” BHAVs. It is compatible with MidgeTheTree’s Fire Safety Mod. It has been brought to my attention that my mod shows up as a conflict with Simler’s Fire mod, as it modifies the Panic interaction. Mine completely modifies the panic interaction so as far as loading order goes, mine might work with Simler’s mod if mine is loaded after, will be testing that shortly.
Sims who have the Fire Safety skill will autonomously try to put out the fire if they see it. There are also safeguards in place where if a child has the fire safety skill, they will automatically run out of the building.
One of my main concerns right now is the running locomotion being stuck. I believe I may have fixed it, but I would need confirmation.
If it sounds like something you would want to test for your game, send a message or reply below. :)
