@GuruSR Thank you for the suggestions. I'm not sure what you mean by flagging the feeding but I do already have the interaction satisfying their thirst along with giving them fun. I've tried so many things to try to get the drinking interactions to be used. I've even tried to figure out why it is the uncontrollable drink makes them drink so I could try to replicate it but again, nothing I've tried is working. I have no idea what EA did in one of the patches a long time ago that stopped them from doing this autonomously. They used to drink on their own until one of the patches. My knowledge in coding just isn't high enough to figure out what I need to do to have it work again.

In regards to the dialog box, it is a universal box. Meaning, it is the same one that pops up for both NPC's and the active household. Nothing in the code tells the dialog box who it is that is asking or responding. Also, this will help the player know who it is in case one of the active sims, that isn't currently being controlled, does the interaction on their own.


Not really sure how sims interactions work or how they're picked, though when they're hungry (thirst?), they tend to go for food, so would your interactions be set to possibly be "used to help food"? I'm guessing here that the interactions are picked based on what mood they improve and by how much? Thirst really isn't a "mood", so not sure how to actually cause that interaction to happen on hunger. Guess have to come up with maybe a dialogue that leads to it.

Rather than using thirst, why not their vampire power? Maybe look at the autonomous meditation, maybe that'll shed a light on how to get them to feed based on their vampire power level.

Hey, I just updated the mod and now it seems to not working properly anymore. Before I updated the mod I had a Sim who got enraged and drank uncontrollably from a Sim. Then I updated the mod and when the same Sim got enraged later again, nothing happened even though there were enough Sims on the lot. Also when the thirst is lowest, she won't drink uncontrollably. The other things like dying when they drink deeply work fine.

@_Raven_ The only thing changed on the mod was an added translation. Try testing the mod with no other mods in your folder to rule out any conflicts.

Ok so I removed all the mods except for this mod and the addons and it still didn't work. I decided to remove the addons too and it was the "Vampire can drink" addon (the "Vampirism Drink Pregnant Sims is Fun!" one, not unlimited). After I removed this addon, it worked again, my Sim immediately went to the nearest Sim and drank uncontrollably when her thirst was too low. It still worked when I added my other mods again.

@_Raven_ Thank you. I will take a look into it. It could be an issue that's been there a while a never knew about.

@cyberblade Unfortunately, with a tuning mod this large, it makes it hard to do a description that is simplified. If you look through the "Things you will find in this mod" section and tell me what you would like, I can help you choose the files you will need. Tagging me on my discord will be the fastest way for me to know you have responded. I don't receive any notifications from MTS that there is a comment and since I'm not on here each day, it could be days, weeks, or even months before I know you left a comment on here. On Discord, be sure to hashtag me so I'm notified of a message. Hope this helps!

PATCH UPDATE: 6/6/24

I am still trying to figure out why the vampires won't do this autonomously anymore. All I can find online is that at some point, the developers took the autonomy away. I've tried so many ways and ideas to try to get the vampires to do this again but I have not been successful.

If you have any suggestions or possible solutions to this issue, please PM either here or on my Discord.


Thank you for all of your patience and support!

~ENJOY~

Could it be possible to only make a version that has Drink Uncontrollably only kill sims?

Could casual drinking be updated to cause romance between the victim and the vampire?
I love the variety of options made available with this mod, but I miss one aspect of these seductive creatures, vampires. I'd love if being bitten/drunk from caused a bond between the victim and her/his vampire (a sudden romantic increase that might cause the victim to want more interactions, even to offering themselves as a blood source, or something.)

Might that be possible?

@Manderz0630 In order to do this, I would need to make another full flavor of the main mod. Another full flavor isn't something I will be doing as it already has 4 different flavors. I do have an add-on called "No death vampire deep drink" this will stop the death on the deep drink.

@karenjames It would be possible to do. It's something I could consider

Not sure, but this: https://ilkavelle.wixsite.com/simsq...ody-party-event

It works, vampires will feed randomly on party guests, though in this, it is encouraged to do so. They were biting all over the place, I asked if it was possible to make that into a lot trait so fanatics of vampires that love being drank from would visit every few hours during the night to get their bite on. Might happen, might not, but at least that person got them to do something during the event.
