[W] Excessive Werewolf transformation

I've noticed Fury gain is a little too quick as well, combine that with the Somber Howl skill that doesn't seem at all balanced to any werewolf except one who was lucky enough to get several Marks instead of four bad Temperaments (cooldown is too long and doesn't remove enough Fury) and you'll get some very scratched furniture, and let's not mention the wet floor 🤨

The Somber Howl skill could definitely use some tweaking, and as you suggest, add in a few items to reduce Fury gain around the house maybe.

It's getting worse! I'm at veteran skill now and my sim werewolf is transforming 3 times a day! x)

I can watch the fury meter filling during the night so the sim freaks out first thing in the morning. I'm using 'the will to resist' to resist the repo of the toddler but it's failed five times in a row on one morning... making meal times impossible. The sim will be ready to fire again about midday, and at least once more in the evening... gah! 🙂

I'm hoping I can hold out long enough to get 'lunar howl' which... at least erase some of the fury generation. But I bet any money I get left with the worst ones...

Four temperaments seems a lot? I thought each one gave a way that you would gain fury faster. I believe you usually start out with 0 or 1... no wonder you gain fury so quickly with four active. But maybe you can mitigate it by paying attention to what the specific triggers are?

"Grumpy" has a description "this sim might need a little extra rest in order to stay… balanced. Just don’t poke a sleeping wolf." - are you waking the Sim to feed the toddler, or letting them sleep until they wake autonomously?

"Restless animal" is "constrained while indoors, and gain extra Fury without anything fun to do" - are you keeping them inside trying to care for the toddler? Maybe they should take a break and go outside to play basketball or something?

And I can't imagine "sensitive hearing" is fun in a city. "things like TV, loud radio, instruments and other noise cause Fury to rise in this sim" Both toddlers and apartments sound like things that are noisy.

I had a really chill werewolf first time round with the same family. The change showed up once every three days because of a need for 'red meat' (i thought I could order meat packages from HonB store and get it delivered. No dice there. The salmon went down well though. X)

Throw the neighbours woohooing every three days or so... yeah maybe just the Iron Man sims playthrough perhaps? x)

I went with the toddler bed so that the toddler gets a good long sleep period. This gives my werewolf plenty of sleep time and I let them wake naturally. Lot's of TV in the evenings with the Instavision Flat Panel. Spend time teaching the toddler during the day. Painting to earn a little spare money.

Hopefully I'll have enough to move somewhere... quieter soon. Raise chickens in HonB maybe or go paint in the desert perhaps? 

Maybe try removing the tv, since that’s one of the triggers? 

Removing the TV??? You're going to make someone a terrible parent!!! x)

'Lunar howl' has had an interesting effect... my sim now has 'easily excitable', 'survival' and 'prideful' traits with 'mark of the forest', fury is now permanently stuck at maximum with NO WAY to change from wolf form. x) On the plus side, the TV is no longer a problem. I wonder how long my relationships will last with this status? I wonder if this will change with my next lunar howl?

Whatever happens, it's keeping me chuckling and that is the main thing. 🙂 Thanks for the replies.

Okay, some of the weird stuff that is happening;

Werewolves running in house hang up on every piece of furniture going. Clip through walls and take a weird route to reach their destinations.

Werewolf and child share a name. I don't mean just last name; first name, gender, pronoun, both are grafted together. Changing one changes both.

That last sounds like maybe this CAS bug?
