This looks awesome. I pulled antiflycatching when putting these in just now because I don't think I'll need it at all with so much improved logic! :D

@Rosawyn The Anti Fly Catching mod also affects the birdwatching interaction, despite its name. But I'm going to release a mod that changes that interaction as well. For now, I hope the mods from this bunch work as awesome as they look.

I feel like I'm being annoying now, but running the HCDU shows a conflict btwn simNopke-insectsSanity-ladybugs.package and antigardenlag.package
I didn't remember that I had that and in fact have no memory of having it. After looking up what it does ('The visual effects of bugs and ladybug houses are not displayed, because they cause horrible lag. This prevents the horrible lag produced by those items.'), I'm gonna just pull it for now and hope for the best, but I figured maybe others should be aware of the conflict as well.

@Rosawyn I don't think you're annoying, conflict reports are always appreciated. I'll add that conflict to the description, with additional information about it.

I don't know if this is the mod causing it, but I saw the Nature hobby maven hunting bugs when my sim went to Peerless Park. I don't think I'd ever seen any sim autonomously hunt bugs before, and it seemed like a nice immersive touch. (He didn't seem to be doing too well at it, tho, despite his maxed enthusiasm.)

@Rosawyn Yeah, originally Sims cannot hunt bugs autonomously although they were supposed to be doing that. I've fixed that oversight.
As far as I know, a high level of enthusiasm for science makes Sims hunt bugs more successful.

it conflicts with Social Bug Hunting but it seems they work together just fine.

@guirnaldas Thanks for your report. I need to take a deeper look at it. I'm sure some features of one mod or the other are lost when they're used together.
