Title: EP2 Required: pregnant sims can go to community lots
Post by: Squinge on April 22, 2006, 04:46:28 am
This mod stops the game from making pregnant sims stay at home when you try to have them visit a community lot by calling a taxi instead of getting the message below.

NOTE:

April 13th, 2011:

This mod is compatible with AL and MG.
 
"You know, I think someone as pregnant as I am should probably try to get some rest. I think I'll pass this time and stay home."
 
EP2 or greater are required to use this mod.
This mod is compatible with FFS/GLS.
Inteen conflict's with this mod but I'm not sure how serious it is yet.

Thankyou!

The strange thing is that I can't send my playable pregnant sim to a community (before this hack) but, when I was on a community lot with an other sim, I always see pregnant sims walking around. LOL

Another maxis crap.

I noticed that in my game also that is why i decided to make this hack.

do you think the reason they made it that way because of some problem that would develop if a sim had a baby on a community lot, since you can't take babbies anywhere?  i wonder what WOULD happen if a sim gave birth on a community lot (?) do you think you would be able to teleport the baby home with something like insiminator?

shezoe, I believe that is not possible, since I believe you don't age nor baby grows while you are at a community lot or business lot, btw thanks for this great mod.

Like said, Sims simply don't age while on a community lot even though time passes by so a Sim will never give birth on a community lot.  The reason I think they made it that way is because the needs of a pregnant Sims go down a lot faster than other sims making it hard for us to maintain the Sim needs high.  Making it go back home with a hunger or energy desparation can make that Sim die.

That is correct the pregnancy is not processed on community lots, I verified this in controller age.

Well, you could MAKE them have the baby with InSiminator. Mwa ha ha ha ha. Have your baby in the frozen foods aisle.

You know, I've never had a problem getting a pregnant sim to go to a community lot... Is this just a last tri-mester limitation? Can't recall if I've tried sending a sim that far along before.

Check again 'cause you probably HAVE a mod to allow your preggies. They don't enter the car even if you ask them to install an alarm.

 OFB lets pregnant sims go to the community lots.

I'm well aware of the mods I'm running and none of them are for allowing preg. sims to go to comm. lots. I have OFB though, so toriamos would have hit the nail on the head. I just wasn't aware this was an issue for some people.

That's strange because this code is from EP3, & I tried it but it wouldn't let my pregnant sims go to any lots until I made this mod:)

I'm going to have to go and check this out in-game without any mods, because I sent a pregnant sim to a community lot before you even released this and had no trouble. Is it possible Inteen could have some sort of effect?

ATM I'm thinking there's probably a time-limit, a pregnant sim can only go to community lots up until they reach so many hours into the pregnancy.

That is possible but the strange thing is it did allow my pregnant sims to visit community lots if I was playing another sim at a community lot I would see pregnant sims there but it wouldn't let me send them to a community lot:)

I sent my pregnant sims to community lot in her 1st tri., after I installed OFB just because you could do it with OFB.  The only problem that happen was that she never spinned into her 2nd tri.  when she came back from the communtiy lot she looked like she was in her 3 tri. until she gave birth I was afraid that she was going to be in a stuck pregnency but she wasn't. I have read that other also had this problem when a pregnant sims would go to the community lot.  

I didn't have any hacks to allow  the pregnant sim to go to the lot.  I forgot where I read about OFB allowing them to go to community lots but it was before or right after OFB was out, that's how I knew to even try to send them. Hmm strange.

Well this whole this was driving me a little crazy so I did a google search and found a chat on the Official Site. (It's like, I know I sent that pregnant sim to the lot I don't think I was dreaming,  Sometimes I do dream about sims, I know I need a life. lol)

"Pregnant women can now go to the community lots for almost their entire pregnancy."

So I guess lemonfresh is right about how far along a sim is in their pregnancy.


Title: EP2 Required: pregnant sims can go to community lots
Post by: lemonfresh on May 09, 2006, 07:53:24 pm
Well, I ran a no-CC game this morning, took forever to get a sim pregnant and then tried sending her to a community lot. It worked just fine but the same thing happened that toriamos described. She was in her first trimester, when she got on the lot she appeared to be in her second or third and upon getting home stayed that way until giving birth. No spinning until birth. I sent her to a community lot during what would be her second trimester with no problems. I should probably go back and have her get pregnant again and not send her til the second trimester to see if the stuck belly happens again and then try a third time for the third trimester.

I think the code is there for pregnant sims to be able to travel to community lots, it's just broken. I've patched OFB, so perhaps this has something to do with whether or not they can?

Another strange thing is the code wasn't changed any from the ep2 code it's exactly the same so I don't know what maxis may have changed but it's weird how it works different for different people:)


Title: Update
Post by: lemonfresh on May 10, 2006, 09:58:07 am
Ok, so I got poor grown-up Meadow Thayer pregnant again, (she had twins this time!) and sent her to Bluewater for a makeover in her second trimester. Those makeover chairs are evil, she left looking like a clown! :tongue5:  

Same thing happened, she appeared on the lot with a third-trimester belly and upon getting home stayed that way until birth. So today, as I get time, I'll try again in the third trimester. If it lets her go, I'll just not save and keep sending her further along to see if I can pinpoint how many hours into the pregnancy it cuts off the ability to travel.

This is a no-mod, no-cc test game, so theoretically, it should work for everyone with Uni, NL and OFB. All of them patched. No Holiday or FFS.

Anyone else care to see if they can get the same effect in a test game of their own?

I'm sending her with high motives and she's driving herself, not taking a taxi.


*****

Ok, apparently, the cut-off for pregnant sims to go to community lots is 71/72 hours. This is with high motives and driving themselves.

I just remembered that part, I was going to ask if you were calling a taxi because this code is for when a pregnant sim calls a taxi not for when they drive themself to a community lot:)


Title: EP2 Required: pregnant sims can go to community lots
Post by: lemonfresh on May 11, 2006, 09:53:44 am
Lol, as I was typing that, I was thinking to myself, "That was way too easy. I must be missing something." Today I'll start testing things with the taxi in the no-mod game and see if I can pin anything useful down.

It makes sense that driving yourself is ok. IRL you'd be able to drive yourself to the hospital, and wouldn't want to wait on a taxi to arrive. Not to metion the angry taxi driver.

I'm wondering if Maxis knows about the stuck belly issue though. Not that they're likely to fix it if they do/did. :P

************

Ok, oddly enough, I got the same results with the taxi that I did with the car. It allowed the sim to travel to community lots up until the last couple of hours before birth. I suspect there's a mod out there that's keeping people from being able to send pregnant sims to community lots.

i actually had a preggo sim on a community lot one time but i wanted to see what would happen so i used a lot of boolProp and made her have the baby and i couldn't get her back home

I had a wedding once and one of the guests was preggers.  She had the baby at the wedding, left the wedding at the end of it and she left the baby there!!!  The wedding couple had trouble going on thier honeymoon,  the game wouldn't let the husband go cause a baby that young could not stay home alone.

Post by: Ozzucay on August 07, 2006, 06:41:22 pm
That should not have happened. All pregnancies should be on hold when visiting community lots. Do you have any aging on community lots mods installed? It was most likely a glitch. If it happens again exit the lot without saving. :)

I wish this had come along a little sooner.  This is really cool mod but I have OFB.  I can't remember if I've tried taking a pregnant sim to a community lot since getting OFB but I had one sim who had 6 children and she drover herself to work every day of all six of her pregnancies.
