[Mod] Sim Profile Information Re-Ordering
This is a UI mod. IT WILL LIKELY BREAK AT EVERY PATCH. (Yeah I know, why did I do that to myself).I don't like that the Sim profile buries the relationship and sentiment information under preferences and careers. I don't care about their preferences until I remember who they are to my sim 😂So I pushed relationship & sentiment info up. Now I am happy, and if this bugged you too - you can be happy too.You have two options, PICK ONE:ORIf you use UI Cheats, one of two things might happen:...

[L&D] Info about Testing Progress
Hello everyone, today just an update of how things are going with Law & Disorder.We started Discord early group testing on June 28 for select features.By Discord early group testing I mean a few individuals on Discord performing systematic, serious, precise instructions-based actions in game (in a new save prepared according to instructions) and reporting at length on results, just as systematically, seriously and precisely.

[Misc.] General Public Info on New Stuff and What's Up
Patrons: IGNORE this post, you’ve already read the information contained and more in previous patron–only post.______________________________________Hi there,Just a quick public status post here.1. A new mod out in early access: “Do Something”: Command Non-Active Sims to interact - towards others, objects, or aloneIt lets you tell any non-active Sim (aka not your currently played one) what you want them to do next. You can command them to:- Do a social interaction with your currently pla...
[Mod] “Do Something” aka "Command Non-Active Sims" - make them Interact - towards others, objects, or alone - for More Control over NPCs
In the process of testing interactions for Law & Disorder, I made myself a tool that enables me to force run any interaction on Sims regardless of availabilities and tests - this is powerful for testing but NOT safe to use by mod users. So I did add that to Sim Info Manager for modders.But I felt it would be a wasted opportunity to not make a more restricted, safe to use version for y’all mod users.So, here comes this.It lets you tell any non-active Sim (aka not your currently played one) what...

Hello everyone,Thank you for your support and making all this possible!Today, let's have another little look inside Law & Disorder.Obligatory DISCLAIMER:I don’t want to equate the features of this mod to the real life stuff, and this mod is not either any sort of attempt at making a representation thereof.This is for a GAME that is a life simulation, has a "Criminal" career, etc. I do NOT approve of any of this in real life, nor am I advertising it.
