Quick Info
~~~~~~~~~~
* If you have InTeenimater installed, you must download the special version of the hack called df_pregnancy_controller_fix_INTEEN_REQ.rar
This fix removes unused and excess Pregnancy Controllers from your lot. All they do is bloat your saved game files and slightly slow down your game.
The hack works quietly and automatically, needing no user intervention.
Effects
~~~~~~~
A Pregnancy Controller will be referred to by the abbreviation PC below.
When a human Sim becomes pregnant or when a Pet Sim is ready to give birth, a PC is created to handle the pregnancy and birthing process. After a human gives birth, her PC is removed from the lot because it is no longer needed. But a Pet's PC will not be removed after that Pet gives birth. It will remain on the lot eternally, even after that Pet is dead and buried.
Also, a brand new PC is created each time the same Pet gives birth. So consider your Pet giving birth today, and then again 2 years from now, and yet again 4 years from now. This will create 3 permanent (and completely unused) PCs that infect your lot until the end of time. Just imagine how many excess PCs are on your legacy lots that had many generations of Pets giving birth. Well how about 30, 50, 100, or even 150+?
So this hack will remove a Pet's PC after it gives birth, just like the game already does for human Sims. It will also remove any and all old (unused) Pet PCs that are still infesting your lot from when before my hack existed.
