Do you want INTERACTIVE CLIMBING EXCURSIONS?
Hi Simmers!
What would you think if sims 4 had an option for an interactive mode? Lets say that climbing excursions (Snowy Espace EP) could have
4 difficulty levels to choose from:
EASY no time limit, no consequences, no interaction mode / MEDIUM no time limit, some consequences, no interaction mode / HARD Time limit, some consequences, interactive mode / EXTREME Time limit, a lot of consequences, interactive mode.
INTERACTIVE MODE
In interaction mode (only excursions on MEDIUM / EXTREME mode) you will need to act with your surrounding. An interaction meter will pop up on the screen: red in the bottom / green in the middle / red on the top +a cursor that constantly moving up and down. You need to hit the space tab (on your keyboard) when the cursor are in the green part of the meter to success with the action. If you hit space tab when the cursor is on the red part of the meter you will fail. A higher skill in the activity will make the green area bigger (=easier to hit).
INTERACTIVE CLIMBING
The interaction meter pop up on the screen. Your sim will reach for the next rock to climb and you need to click on space tab to succeed.
Hit space tab in the GREEN area: Succeed, your sim will get a grip and climb one step
Hit space tab in the RED area: Fail, your sim loose their grip and fall
WILD ANIMALS / DEFEND YOURSELF
You can also be attacked by wild animals. At random wild animals (bear) can pop up when you walking (climbing excursion) and you need to defend yourself:
1. Click on R on your keyboard and the sim will run/escape and hide in a bush (this will lower your needs and lower the Endurance meter).
2. If you have a weapon, click on S on your keyboard and the interaction meter +cursor will show up.
Hit space tab in the GREEN area: Succeed, the bear will flee
Hit space tab in the RED area: Fail (try again, but the bear will come closer)
DISCLAIMER: This is sims, no animals are going to get hurt! You will shot… Cloudberries on them, bears hate cloud berries (?), and if you hit them with a cloudberry the bear gonna look like: "What the <3 <3 <3 <3" and run away. Or maybe load your gun with fish / blueberries...?
TIME LIMIT - ENDURANCE METER – EMERGENCY TEAM
The excursion will have a time limit (only excursions on MEDIUM / EXTREME mode), but you will also have an ENDURANCE METER when playing on MEDIUM / EXTREME. All actions +Low needs +Some negative moodlets lower the endurance meter. Sleeping / Eating / Taking a nap / Drinking energy juice +Some positive moodlets increasing it. When the Endurance meter hit the bottom your sim will get the moodlet Exhausted (risk of fainting, bigger risk of getting injured). There is also a risk that you sim will get to cold (moodlet) when playing in a snowy landscape (you need to light a fire / sleep in a tent to warm your sim).
If your sim get stuck because of Snowstorm / Avalanche / Fatigue you can call for the Emergency team (this is a new active career) and they will (hopefully) come and rescue your sim (update for Cats & Dogs: Rescue dogs).
Ok. What do you think? Is this a feature that you’re interested in for a future pack / update for a pack?
