Hello, guys.
As a new member I can't create a topic, so write my idea here.
I play Sims 4 on Linux now.
And can't create mods, maybe I find out how to use python injector for sims 4, cause it must work here.
Sims 4 is my main stress killer between work, but I don't like a lifespan of default game, and need longer that mods here provide.
Is it possible to create a script mod, where I can change lifespans with my own numbers?
I mean, not a solid package one, but a dynamic one, with a config file.
It seems to be a little crazy. But I want to play very long, "realistic" life for sims.
First, let us get real life values, correct me if I'm wrong:
Baby - 1 year
Toddler - 1-4 years (3 years)
Child - 4-11 years (7 years)
Teen - 11-20 years (9 years)
Young Adult - 20-40 years (20 years)
Adult - 40-60 years (20 years)
Elder - from 60-75 years (15 years) to 60-90 years (30 years)
Seasons can have 28 days, which is kinda okay for me.
So, one year is 28 days * 4 seasons = 112 days is one year of sim
And lifespans I need:
Baby - 1 year = 112 days
Toddler - 3 years * 112 days = 336 days
Child - 7 years * 112 days = 784 days
Teen - 9 years * 112 days = 1008 days
Young Adult - 20 years * 112 days = 2240 days
Adult - 20 years * 112 days = 2240 days
Elder - 15 years to 30 years * 112 days = from 1680 to 3360 days
Pretty accurate, I think.
Yeah, big values, but even if Sims 4 use a short integer to store it, it must be enough. (2^16/2 = 32768 >> 3360)
