Friday Theater Variety - Make symphonies and plays happen more often
Friday Theater Variety main image.png - width=1056 height=687
This mod aims to make it significantly easier to find a Friday night concert, symphony, or play, providing more variety for theater rabbitholes and making it easier to fulfill Sims' music-related wishes; especially since it doesn't seem like the game ever implemented theater concerts/plays on Saturdays/Sundays, despite what the game's tooltips and config files claim.
Note that even with this mod, it'd speed up the frequency of each of the three events to place additional theaters in a world.
———File in GameplayData.package that has been modified———
• Theatre_0xe16f1c0c8d45c37c
———Values changed———
• kPercentChanceForPlay: 15 → 35
• kPercentChanceForSymphony: 15 → 35
• kPercentChanceForConcert 15 → 30
———Notes———
• A few theater rabbitholes appear to never offer concerts, symphonies, nor plays, even when using this mod. Captain Jack's Theater (included with Sunlit Tides) seems to be affected by this.
• The mod does not currently increase the chance of stadium rabbitholes' concerts.

About Me
WIP big projects:
• Shoppingcenter 7000 v1.3 (Nov 2025 or Q1 2026)
• Prevent Sim from stuffing their pockets with rubbish piles on purpose when rummaging (Nov 2025 - Jan 2026)
• Reduce the amount of received dating request phone calls (Nov 2025 - March 2026)
Backup of some of my mods (External link). I understood the rules (Link) as that "About Me" 100% allowed such links, though the normal SoMe profile settings lacked GitHub or GitLab options.
