 Say Thanks!
I've been playing with Lazy Duchess' Height Mod. I wanted my tall sims to have tall children and short sims to have short children, but there wasn't anything that would do that... so I made one. Here it is.

If the pregnant parent has not had their height set using the Height Mod, you will be asked if you want to set a height for the baby. Otherwise, this mod will do its job without any notifications.


Because of the way this mod works, it also includes "Baby Last Name Chooser", so you will be asked which parent's surname you would prefer each baby to have.

If you are playing with Grow, this is also compatible with that mod, and will also set adult heights ready for that mod.

Versions - Pick only one!
If you have Apartment Life (and/or Mansions and Gardens), pick a version with "-AL"
If you do not have Apartment Life, but you do have Freetime, pick a version with "-FT"
If you have the Baby Personality mod by Epi, pick a version with "+babypersonality"
If you have the Fairy Changelings mod by kestrellyn, pick a version with "+fairychangelings"
Otherwise, get the default version.

Tuning:
There is a tuning file included, with four adjustable values:
NameDefault ValueComments
Min adult height0Must be smaller than Max adult height, the smallest value the mod will assign as a height
Max adult height200Must be larger than Min adult height, the largest value the mod will assign as a height
Variation10How much taller a child could be than their tallest parent, or shorter than their shortest parent
Alien height150The assumed height of alien pollination technicians. 100 is the default height for sims.

Lazy Duchess, for the Height Mod originally
kestrellyn, for a very useful discussion about mod compatibility and advice about which versions I needed.
Creator Recommendations:
Try my mod Grow to let your sims slowly grow up to their target adult height.
