How does Bienchen's Ask what Happened mod work?

Hi,
I'm wondering about the Ask what Happened Mod by @83bienchen . It doesn't seem to be currently working. I tried to test it by deliberately making one of my Sims cheat on her spouse, but I couldn't find any option for a friend or other household member to ask the Sim what happened afterwards. Is there supposed to be a specific "ask what happened" interaction? The spouse didn't have any interaction either that I could see. Apparently the mod is supposed to give more chances to ask what happened after a negative event, like cheating, divorce, or a negative pregnancy test, (according to the description of the mod) but I'm not sure how it works.

I was looking under the Friendly interactions, but all I could find was the "Discuss Embarrassed Mood" "Try to Calm Down" etc. This mod isn't a script mod, is it?

I'm still fairly new to mods, and would be grateful for any clarification. So far I have had great results with Bienchen's mods, and it would be awesome if I could get this one to work too. I’m using the latest update, but it’s the first time I’ve downloaded this mod.

Thanks very much.

    Hi!
    I use Bienchen's More Ask What Happened, I don't know if there is any significant difference, but anyway I seem to only see it when a Sim is sad, or angry, and your Sim trying to comfort them can ask them what happened. I'm not sure but that's what I noticed without deliberately trying to test it.
    Have a nice day :)

    Hi, the mod works if the Target Sim has the following moodlets:
    ReturnedFromAbduction_Dazed
    Relationship_BrokeUp_Sad
    RejectedByLover
    Memory_sad
    Jealousy_CaughtCheating
    Jealousy_CaughtWithAnother
    Jealousy_CheatingDiscovered
    Jealousy_DoomedRelationship
    Forgotten_Birthday
    LostFight
    Child_metNewSibling_Angry
    Child_metNewSibling_Sad
    UninterestedSoulmate
    Jealousy_UnfaithfulLove
    buff_TeenMoodSwing_Sad
    TeenMoodSwing_Embarrassed
    AdultMoodSwing_Sad
    AdultMoodSwing_Embarrassed
    UnwantedProposal
    RejectedProposal
    SharedBigNews_Tense
    Relationship_GotDivorced
    Object_Baby_Mourn
    LeaveWorkEmbarrassed
    ChildDivorce
    Relationship_GotDivorced
    ChildFight
    Pregnancy_NotPregnant
    LoveGuru_RomanticDoom
    Jealousy_DriftingLove
    FutureCube_Grim_LoveLife
    NPC_Sad
    NPC_Embarrassed
    BrokenUpORDivorced_Hidden

    There are some moodlets the asking Sim ist not allowed to have though (for several reasons I don't have the time to explain in detail):
    WitnessedDeathLovedOne
    WitnessedDeathFriend
    WitnessedDeathNeutral
    WitnessedDeathNemesis
    Fire_Sim_Singed
    WonFight_Mean
    Buff_WonFight
    TeenMoodSwing_Sad
    TeenMoodSwing_Stressed
    TeenMoodSwing_Embarrassed
    TeenMoodSwing_Angry
    AdultMoodSwing_Sad
    AdultMoodSwing_Stressed
    AdultMoodSwing_Embarrassed
    AdultMoodSwing_Angry
    Relationship_GotDivorced
    Object_Baby_Mourn
    ChildDivorce
    Relationship_GotDivorced
    ChildFight
    Child_metNewSibling_Angry
    Child_metNewSibling_Sad
    UnwantedProposal
    Buff_RejectedProposal
    Relationship_BrokeUp_Sad
    Jealousy_CaughtCheating
    Jealousy_CaughtWithAnother

    As you can see, there are a lot of cheating/Jealousy buffs included on that list. If you want, you can post the moodlet your Sim had when the mod was not working for you, so I could check - I might just have missed the specials moodlet your Sim had as there are an awful lot of them and I personally hardly ever have my Sims cheating on one another.

    Hi,
    Thank you, it's working now. I'm not sure what was wrong before. I don't usually have my Sims cheat on one another either, I only tried it for testing purposes. :) This time the target Sim was sad regarding a failure to get pregnant, and a Sim was able to ask what happened.

    I really like your mods @83bienchen , particularly the ones allowing toddlers to show up autonomously at parks and beaches. This adds so much more life and realism to the game. Thank you for your hard work.

    Hi! I believe it is in the "sonstige mods" category.
    This is the one, right?

    Ah, OK I got the name wrong so no wonder I couldn't find it! Thanks very much :)


    You're welcome! I went to the website to find it for you, cause I knew I have seen it before.
    Now I downloaded it myself. I tried not too cause I have already too much mods, but could not resist :)
