Supplies Mod + 40 Objects

With this mod set, sims use cleaning and toiletry supplies! 40 functional objects included

How Supplies Work
You buy special items like soap and place them around the house like you would place bathroom clutter. Every time sims clean something or bathe, they subtract points from a nearby product if there are any. Once a bottle/box is used up, it disappears or looks empty and brings up notification. Some items may be refilled for money or from other objects.

While most interactions are still available even without supplies, having and not having them has advantages and penalties. Changes are global and work on all lots (with some differences).

• House cleaning takes longer without supplies and goes faster with them.
• Same goes for bathing, but there's a difference: sims and pets can't get absolutely 100% clean with water alone. Without soapy products, the hygiene effect of washing is capped at 50 (which is still in the green).
• Sims won't apply acne cream, wash face or brush teeth without supplies, they will shrug with a thought baloon to let you know.
• Dishwasher and washing machine can be used without supplies, but this unholy use may cause them to break sooner in the future.
• Sitting on the toilet without paper or its substitutes takes a hit on hygiene, hehe.
• Bubble bath has no visible bubbles if there are no toiletries.
• On unowned community lots, other unlivable lots and neighbor's apartments, it is assumed that there are all the needed supplies, even if there are no actual objects.

Affected Interactions

• Wash dishes in sink
• Wash dishes in dishwasher
• Wash clothes in washing machine

Technically, supply items are "tagged" for interactions they're used for, one or multiple. If your sims are out of specific product, they may use soap, aka stuff tagged for hand washing, as a substitute.
Don't worry about keeping track of everything - you can have it as simple or as detailed as you like. If you want to buy different products each for their own purpose, you can. If you want to take it easy, you can buy all-in-one storage or soap and not be punished for forgetting 10 types of products.

Included Objects
I mostly used other people's clutter items for this (having checked their TOUs), modified their functions, meshes, textures, footprints, etc. My objects won't override the originals, having unique GUIDs and all





Custom Interactions
Some objects have interactions just to make them a bit more useful!

• Apply Acne Cream - available to sims with acne (by default, only to teens), is almost a clone of the in-game interaction. To apply zit treatment, sims will try to walk up to a mirror if there is one nearby, or just do it near the object you clicked on
• Apply Skin Care - available to teens, adults and elders that don't have acne. Looks the same as applying acne cream, but instead of treating zits, it gives attraction bonus (the use of which in the game remains a mystery to me, so it may be useless)
• Wash Face - similar to the in-game interaction, available to sims from child to elder, if you have Apartment Life installed. Sims will walk up to a closest sink and wash their face like they do with medicine cabinet. Supply points will be subtracted from the object you clicked on, unless it became empty while the sim was walking, in which case some other supply will be used. Small issue: animation partially includes opening/closing non-existent cabinet door
• Brush Teeth - another one from Apartment Life, available to child-elder sims. Sims will also find a sink to brush their teeth. Same deal with points and animations

I should also mention an option for supplies with empty states:

• Restock - refill for money or from storage object with matching functions if there is one (storages themselves can only be restocked for money)

Requires Any Pack from Seasons to M&G
- I play on Ultimate Collection and only tested on that. If you have Seasons or a later pack, the mod should work, let me know if I'm missing something
- Michelle's toilet caddy also requires Kitchen & Bath pack (if you don't have it, the item won't show up)
- Medicine cabinets require Apartment Life (if you don't have it, the item won't show up)
- The objects with Wash Face and Brush Teeth interactions are still usable as supplies even without Apartment Life, although the interactions will only show up if you have the EP (more specifically, have the medicine cabinet that comes with it)

What To Download
- You need the mod file and at least a couple of objects. Letters at the end of the file names stand for: I - interactions, E - empty state, S - storage/source
- Keep the LC_Sims4ShadowFile for LordCrumps' and TeaAddict's items (included), unless you already have it from other sets
- Get compatibility patches for conflicting mods if you have any

Conflict Resolving
May conflict with mods that alter listed interactions. Resolve by load order -- make the mod you like more load after the other
Less likely, but may also conflict with mods that add dialog strings to the soap accessory, or add a global bhav 0x752. You'd have to remove one of the mods then

• suppliesMod shows conflict with its zzPatches - it's OK as long as patches load last, that's how they work
• SinkWashClothes addon for Simple Laundry - make suppliesMod load AFTER SinkWashClothes, to get all the features working
• Cyjon's No Wash Clean Hands - download zzPatch_lamare_suppliesMod_CJ_NoWashCleanHands, make it load AFTER suppliesMod, and remove CJ's file, since the patch replaces the only resource in that file
• Bath Changes Diaper by gummilutt and gdayars - incorporated! You can remove their mod or have it load before mine
• Simler90's Wash Dish mod from the Cleaning mod set - partially incorporated! My calculation is a bit different, depends on supplies, cleaning skill and number of dishes, but doesn't depend on personality. If you're ok with it, remove the WashDish file or have it load before suppliesMod
• Shared showering by PicknMix - to keep both mods, download zzPatch_lamare_suppliesMod_WH_SharedShowering and make it load AFTER BOTH mods
• jonasn's Toilet Shoo Persistently - haven't looked into it yet

How To Turn Clutter Into Functional Supplies
Objects I uploaded here have a special custom category that's recognized by the mod. It's possible to edit a deco object in SimPE for it to be used in this system. Sadly, I couldn't do it without requiring you to edit or add BHAVs.
