Everything Sims 2

This mod does three things.

One: It reduces how often Sims autonomously perform the three Bon Voyage vacation gestures: Bow, Chest Pound, and Hang Loose.
Two: Instead of Sims constantly using these gestures once they’ve learned them, the mod adds a personality-based chance to whether they’ll choose to perform them autonomously:

Bow is influenced by the Sim’s Nice personality.
Chest Pound is influenced by the Sim’s Active personality.
Hang Loose is influenced by the Sim’s Outgoing personality.

Three: The mod also keeps each gesture associated with its appropriate vacation destination. Bow can only be done in the Far East. Chest Pound only in the Mountains and Hang Loose only on a Tropical Island.

Sims can still learn and use the vacation gestures; this mod doesn’t remove them. It primarily tones down their autonomous use so they don’t take over Sims’ social interactions after being learned.

Reduces excessive autonomous Tai Chi by making it depend on a Sim’s Comfort and Niceness. Nice Sims with low Comfort are more likely to perform Tai Chi on their own, while comfortable, grouchy Sims are less likely to do so.

Makes autonomous Classic Dance more selective, mainly allowing nice, very outgoing Sims to occasionally initiate it with appropriate partners.

So for autonomous classic dancing, the Sim appears to need to be:
– fairly Nice
– very Outgoing
– and then pass a 30% random chance

That means it prevents just any Sim from autonomously classic dancing. It mostly allows very social, pleasant Sims to initiate it sometimes.

Adds a potion that increases a Sim’s Niceness and encourages them to seek out friendly interactions with nearby Sims or pets. The effect is tracked with an invisible inventory token and appears to boost Nice personality by about half a point, capped at the normal maximum.

This mod enables mean interactions for teens towards adults/elders and vice versa. Now teens can argue/be argued, tease/be teased, annoy/be annoyed, gross out/be grossed out and fight with anyone older than them.
It’s strange that these interactions were allowed but Maxis decided to scrap this since Open for Business. Also, children can annoy (do the “NyahNyah” interaction) to older Sims and vice versa.

Sims who are not nice will not cry from being teased by another sim. The only sims who will cry are “nice” sims

Makes fighting a more desirable option in the game, eliminating those bizarre “phalanx defeats battleship” outcomes by making fight loops keep score and accumulate advantages instead of simply having their outcomes ignored. Fighting is now also more skill-based, with Mechanical and Logic skill playing small roles alongside Body. Combat experience adds a bonus to the fighter’s skill. Grouchy sims will find fighting to be fun! The grouchier the sim, the more fun fighting is!

Tons of sanity and personality checks added to wants, including:
– Very mean sims no longer actually WANT to give gifts.

This mod adds a new pie menu to your sim that allows you to have them lecture other Sims.
