No Death By Satellite

Thumbnail.jpg - width=969 height=723
I made this for our resident save-the-Sims simmer, AndrewGloria

What is this?
This is a global mod that completely prevents death by satellite while watching clouds and while stargazing. Your Sims can watch clouds all day and stars all night if they'd like, no satellites will suddenly fall out of the sky.
Compatability
Compatible with all EPs and SPs. It has been thoroughly tested with all EPs/SPs. The code has not changed since Base Game, so there's no reason why it would work differently with a different set up.
Conflicts
Will conflict with twojeff's Death By Satellite - Higher Odds. There's no reason to have his if you have mine, since his aims to increase the chance and mine removes it.
Does not conflict with Cyjon's Deadly Satellites, but it does still prevent satellites from dropping so there isn't much point in using both.
Credits
- AndrewGloria for the request
- twojeff for his Death By Satellite - Higher Odds which helped me locate the correct resource a lot faster than if I'd have had to start from scratch

About Me
--- No longer sharing content on MTS ---
I hope to return one day but for now consider me retired, and my uploads unsupported. I still share things sometimes on tumblr and I chat on discord servers, but I do not promise support for things I've shared as I don't know when or if I'm around and whether or not I'll have the ability and energy to do something if I am around.
If you ever downloaded something of mine, thank you! It's a great feeling seeing something you spent time on be useful to someone else in their game, and with all the great CC out there I'm very flattered you would choose to get something of mine.
I do not take requests. I do sometimes make things for people, but only when I see someone wishing for something on the forums and I feel like making it for them. So if you have a mod you wish would exist, make a post in Hacks and CC that you'd like to see!-thread. That's what it's there for after all! :)
A shoutout to VioletPadfoot for inspiring me to try creating, long ago. You gave me the nudge that got me started, and I'm very grateful. I'd also like to thank all of the wonderful experienced creators (gdayars, justJones, maybesomethingdunno, NixNivis, whoward69, HugeLunatic and many more) out there that wrote the tutorials I've used, or that has answered my questions when I've gotten stuck. You guys are what makes learning fun, and what inspires me to keep expanding my knowledge with new projects. Special thanks to Michelle who has helped me a lot when it comes to objects and recolors, and BoilingOil who taught me some modding basics that I needed when I started modding more seriously.
Policy
My policy is now open. I'd appreciate a message telling me about your work, because it's fun for me to see, and it means I know about it and can refer others to it if they reach out. As much as I would like to provide support for my own work, my health is too unstable and I have to prioritize. So if anyone else would like to fix problems or continue something and share it with others, that's great go forth :) If you can learn from my work or improve on it, wonderful. Welcome to ask questions on crafters, if I can I'll answer.
I'd appreciate if people do not share default replacements from my stuff as I do not like default replacements, but I can't stop you anyway so no point in acting like I could. If you want to respect my wishes, I appreciate it, if you don't care then well nothing I can do about it.
Other sites
Only share content on tumblr now. Still retired though so probably nothing, but if something new comes out, that's where it'll be. You can find it linked here on my profile.
