Thank you for replying. I do struggle to understand the information that is giving about the mod on the website :sweat_smile: :blush:
I have installed the same as you without population, but with 10 minutes of play I did not notice anything different lol
StoryProgression contains a series of "Managers" that run behind the scenes all of the time. The additional modules expand their reach with enhanced functionality and provide more settings than the base mod for players to fine tune. None of them are going to display vastly different things in-game after only 10 sim minutes, the Managers take sim days to run their complete cycles.
The family gatherings and baby showers mentioned earlier are for inactives, take place off-screen all by themselves (although if you're lucky sometimes you will actually see the sims involved coming together at someone's house for these) and are reported on by way of stories. With or without stories, the net effects such as relationship gains still happen. But none of these involve actively being played sims, it's not like you can arrange a baby shower for one of your own pregnant sims. At least, not in the same sense or in a gathering called by that name.
SP Population is a big one because that's the one that allows for Advanced Genetics. Without that, or with it switched off, EA's genetics are still being used.
Did that hit most of the unanswered questions or did I leave anything out? :)
