While I like Bust the Dust and its dust mechanism, there are situations where purchasing and using a vacuum cleaner is not feasible. Sometimes the household doesn't have enough simoleons, sometimes a member of the household went to work on their 8 hour long shift with the household vacuum in their pocket and I don't want to buy multiple, sometimes it doesn't fit with an off-the-grid lifestyle.
This mod introduces a 'Mop' interaction, similar to the one sims use on puddles, as a way of cleaning the floor. It also tweaks a couple of other features detailed below.
The mod requires XmlInjector. You can get it from the Official In Memoriam Website. The mod will not work without it.
Info Update 26.10.2024:
Mods compatible with 1.110.265.1030 (Life and Death patch). No changes necessary. Make sure to grab the updated version of XML Injector!
Info Update 30.07.2024:
Mods compatible with 1.108.335.1020 (Lovestruck patch). No changes necessary.
Info Update 08.12.2023:
Mods compatible with 1.103.250.1020 (For Rent patch). No changes necessary.
Info Update 11.12.2023:
Mod compatible with 1.102.190.1030 (October patch). No changes necessary.
Features:
- add the 'Mop' action as a way of reducing dust buildup
-- mop spawns out of thin air, same as when mopping up puddles;
-- no moodlets from mopping;
-- takes a bit longer than vacuuming;
- remove sparkle when floor is clean;
- remove bunny spawning from dusty floor; dust bunnies still spawn on dirty floor and dust fiends still spawn on filthy floor; (dust levels go like this clean > dusty > dirty > filthy)
- remove dust reaction on floor change;
This mod overrides the following files and will conflict with other mods doing the same:
0C772E27!0000002B!000000000003E208.loot_Dust_State_Dusty.ActionTuning
0C772E27!0000002B!000000000003E209.loot_Dust_State_Clean.ActionTuning
6017E896!0000002B!000000000003E9E1.buff_Dust_Enabled.BuffTuning
If you're looking for something similar:
- Dust Mopping by Szemoka Adds the Mop interaction that gives moodlets similar to the vacuuming one.
- Functional Broom by MizoreYukii Adds a variety of functional broom objects, interactions and animations.

About Me
I LOVE The Sims and I've been playing the series since The Sims 1. I'd made some mods for myself before, but I've recently decided to share them with the community as well. I was happy to see they were well-received.
My mods bring gameplay enhancements and bug fixes, rebalancing game features with a focus on better integration of different pack features. I try to make sure my mods are both bug free and easy to use, so please leave any feedback, I appreciate it.
Thanks for trying out my mods, I really hope you enjoy them and they make your gameplay experience more fun!
