@crinrictSort of? They can feed themselves using a few of the vegetarian methods, but that's about it. Some of the vegetarian methods also won't work. The club coding seems to override whatever the issue is, but only during active club events where "drink plasma" is a club activity. Even in plasma/bitey club events, though, there seems to be a priority for vegetarian, then permission-based feeding, over the attacks.
NPC vampires will:
- Autonomously drink plasma packs that are left out and available, or plasma packs that were already in their inventory. The only plasma packs that work for autonomous feeding are the ones you buy from a PC, the ones you make from frogs and fish don't work even for played vampires. That's been a bug I think as long as I've had the Vampires pack.
- Order plasma drinks and plasma fruit salad at bars and restaurants. I think NPC vampires will eat plasma fruit salad that's left out or in a fridge that you've made for them, but haven't tested this in a while. They won't make plasma fruit drinks or plasma fruit salad for themselves even if they have a plasma fruit in their inventory.
NPC vampires will not:
- Drink uncontrollably from Sims
- Drink involuntarily from a Sim (deeply or lightly or drain spirit)
- Ask for permission to drink
- Eat plasma fruit that is in their inventory or left out on the lot
- Drink plasma packs that are made from frogs or fish, that is, the packs are created and not bought
- Drink plasma fruit drinks that are left out but not made specifically for them
- Make their own plasma fruit food or drinks
Club event coding:
- Clubs need to be actively meeting with "drink plasma" as an activity
- NPC vampires will first drink every plasma pack they have in their inventory
- Then they'll start queuing up to order plasma drinks at the bar (if meeting place is a bar)
- They will ask for permission to drink from Sims and usually get rejected
- Occasionally they will drink from Sims without permission, but this appears to be a last resort even when they're evil
Its particularly strange that the autonomy during club activities is set like this, you'd think vampires would just attack Sims unless they had a specific trait (like guilty drinker or good or vegetarian or the reward trait from the pack) aimed at preventing/lowering it. Even evil vampire Sims go around asking permission.
Edit: I didn't know NPC vampires were supposed to bite when angry/very angry, I've never seen that either. I've also never had them ask autonomously for permission to feed.
