Default [Mod Constructor V5] Can't export sim 4 trait package
Hello !

This is my first time posting on MTS forums so I'm hope I'm not posting in the wrong place.

I've used the science baby feature to have a kid with the reaper and since it doesn't do anything for the child (and the game's Grim Reaper trait blocks needs, I don't really want that for my sim), I decided to take matters into my own hands and create a custom "Child of the Reaper" trait with special interactions, buffs and features. I had used Zerbu's mod creator before but it was year ago and I'm a little confused with the new version. Still, I manage to put in mostly everything I wanted in the trait, but I can't seem to be able to export it, so I must have made a mistake somewhere and I don't know how to fix it.

Everytime I try I have this error message :

I have no clue what any of this means and I don't know how to fix it, or if it's a mistake I made during the trait creation or while installing the program.

If someone could help me figure it out it would be greatly appreciated, I'm not really good with programming.

PS : also if someone knows how to make it so the trait is automatically given to a baby if its parent has a certain trait (Grim Reaper in this case), I'd love to know ♥

Thank you !

Download the new beta 10 release. It is an error with mixer interactions -> https://github.com/Zerbu/Mod-Constr...ag/v5.0-beta.10

Using the latest version is a must because coding has changed a lot in the last year, and depending on which version you're using, it won't work. If using the latest doesn't seem to work and you get the same response, I also suggest posting it on Zerbu's Discord channel https://discord.com/invite/r9SrU9B and see what they say.

To make your custom trait inheritable by your child, you need to use the MAL22 traits tracker injector. Search on Google.

Out of curiosity, how did you have a science baby with the grim reaper? I've been trying to do this for weeks and haven't been successful.

Thanks everyone, I'm gonna check it out and try it out. If it works well, maybe I'll upload it at some point.

I added the reaper to my household, then had him have the science baby with my sim (from his phone), then took him out of the household.
