Hey, I figured I'd mention this for the confused!
The recent reports are a new bug not related to the thread they have been merged into. This bug is caused by the recent update. Several, by my count almost every single one, mean interactions were changed in the recent update to accommodate the new "Loyal" trait. The tuning changes that were made has caused Sims without the trait to behave mean autonomously, which is ruining relationships. The initial thread was posted before this bug occurred, so they are not related in any way except on the surface. Not fussing at the moderators, I understand they have to keep the forums tidy! I'm only pointing out that this bug is not as old as the thread makes it seem.
Likewise, almost every single romance interaction was modified in the new update to accommodate the new Loyal trait, but I have not seen many bug reports about that so far. For now, there are only two options for players:
- If on PC/Mac and not opposed to mods, you can disable mean interactions autonomy with MC Command Center. Click on a computer, select MCCC, go to MC Tuner, and Change Interaction Autonomy. From there, turn off Autonomous Mean. This will also prevent Sims who dislike each other from being mean.
- Give your Sims the loyal trait. Yes, all of your Sims whose relationships you value. You can change your Sims' traits by typing the cheat cas.fulleditmode.
That's honestly all that I can think of until this is fixed. If anyone has any other suggestions feel free to leave them. If you want to recover your Sims' relationships, you can do so with this cheat:
modifyrelationship [Sim1 First and Last Name] [Sim2 First and Last Name] 100 ltr_friendship_main
That will add 100 friendship, but you can change that to your desired amount. If romance needs to be recovered:
modifyrelationship [Sim1 First and Last Name] [Sim2 First and Last Name] 100 romance_main
Likewise, that add 100 romance points. For both of these cheats, you would have to type in "200" if a Sim is currently at -100. In other words, if you want it at "100," but a Sim is currently at -100, you have to type in 200 to accomplish that.
To get rid of sentiments, you need the sentiment's tuning name. For example, if you want to get rid of Hurt, you would type this:
modifyrelationship [Sim1 First and Last Name] [Sim2 First and Last Name] -100 sentimenttrack_hurt_st_generic
Note that it will only remove the sentiment from Sim 1 about Sim 2, so if Sim 2 has the same sentiment, you would have to put their name first.
You may also have to remove the SentimentBit with the Cheat Relationship command in Shift + Click! Always remember that. The sentimenttrack controls the moodlets your Sim gets, but the SentimentBit controls their autonomy toward another Sim.
