When you said, "Be aware that Aliens have now the ability to erase some ones memory." Will this also be an issue for a human that is in a steady or married relationship with that alien? It would really suck if a human was married to an alien, and had a family with him or her, only to have their memory erased.

Well it's an interaction that aliens have access to. When this is changed to autonomy "allowed" then yes the alien could use the interaction. Most likely when in an angry mood. Because right now it's a mischief interaction, that means an evil alien could use this interaction autonomously! But to be save, I can adjust a second version without the memory erase interaction!

:-) You're very welcome! Guess what, I am working on that right now. I will add two more packages later. One that removed the "erase memory" function from autonomy. For people who do not like if evil aliens erase your memory "lol"
And another package, if it works to remove or add disguise! I will test this later in my game to see if it's possible. If yes, I will add it.

I just updated the mod and uploaded the 2nd version for people who would not like their aliens to use the Mischief social "Erase Memory" autonomously. Have fun!

PS. I am going to test the disguise setting now for a while to see if it actually works.

Is this compatible with Emotional Overcharge?

As far as I know the Emotional Overcharge does not alter the alien interactions. Therefore it's compatible with it!

LOL that is indeed fun! The alien must have had a bad day, or is either mean, evil or hot headed! That's great to hear from you that the erase mind function works as it should, thanks for the info

Is it at all possible to add a mod to force the pesky aliens in the neighbor hood to change back into disguise/alien form at will?

I tried to find out about it and I did a few tests with an autonomous interaction add to the disguise files. But I did not see any alien use them. So I am not sure if it's possible to let them change automatically into disguise. I will dig a little bit deeper. I was completely immersed with the creation of my major alien abduction mod that will hopefully soon be approved. This mod will give everyone what they ever wanted for the abduction system! Stay tuned.

I did not see any problems so far I have the same version in my game. However I will check over the files to make completely sure that they didn't change anything in the code. I will let you know if the mod needs to be updated. But since EA did not change anything on the social interactions, I doubt there would be a problem. But anyhow, I will let you know

Okay guys I just uploaded two new versions which are now fully compatible with patch version 1.6.69.1020.
So if you updated your game to the latest patch from May, please use one of the flavors and replace it with the old mod.

I was wondering if it is possible that, for played Sims they auto change into disguise, when going to work or or school. My Sims has been going in her alien skin and then gets embarrassed cause she was "found out" (Duh no disguise) and that seem to affect her performance. Or even better, if she's in her natural skin, where everyone can see what she is, the embarrassment for being found out be turned off or at least tuned to be Ionna "is made to feel self-conscious. And then she ZAPPS whomever made her feel that way. :} LOL

I tried to add an autonomous feature for the disguise change, but in my test it never happened, so I disregarded it again. I can probably delete the embarrassment after being found out. I changed the autonomous values and the interaction memory erase happens a lot more when the alien is embarrassed, angry or stressed out. It won't happen when they are happy, unless they wanted to have fun and do it anyway lol. But good idea, I will check into the embarrassment buff.

I am checking the mod currently. As soon I am sure that it works as intended I will add it here as an addon which just can be placed together with the autonomy mod
