Mods that introduce helpful features
[Please read: How to install mods]
While not necessarily addressing a specific bug or glitch, these mods offer a variety of useful features that can improve performance or avoid unwanted effects. This list represents my own recommendations. All of the mods are compatible with patches 1.67 (disc/Steam/Mac 32-bit), 1.69 (Origin/Windows), and 1.70 (Mac 64-bit). Some mods also require a certain expansion to be present. Please read the documentation for each mod before installing.
NRaas Retuner: This mod allows players to change the attractiveness of certain actions or objects and allow or block autonomous or user-directed interactions. If a certain interaction becomes problematic, changing its related settings through Retuner can prevent sims from performing the interaction at all or lower the chance that they will choose to do so on their own.
NRaas Mover: This mod expands the options for moving, including supporting overstuffed households and those without an adult sim.
NRaas Saver: This mod provides periodic prompts to the player to save progress and to use “save as” rather than overwriting save data with “save.”
NRaas Tempest: This mod allows the player to create profiles for allowable weather (by percentage) and temperatures (by range), either by season or over a shorter time frame.
[velocitygrass] Add Any Lot Size: This mod allows for the placing of any lot size in Edit Town, getting around issues with nonstandard lot sizes or oddly-shaped empty map areas that won’t accommodate a default lot size.
[AussomeDays] Additional Entry and Exit Routing Slots: This mod allows sims to use more doors to enter or exit school and university buildings, reducing crowding and its consequences.
[Nona Mena] Super Hamper: This modded object collects dirty laundry rather than allowing it to pile up around the house.
[icarus_allsorts] User-directed Scolding: This mod makes scolding and punishment user-directed rather than being uncancellable.
