Default Would it be possible to make a condition based off if the target sim is BF/GF?
So I am aware that the their are conditions for if the sim is Married, Is Engaged, and the Actor.IsInRomatincRelationshipWith(Target). However, I would be interested in trying to find a condition for boyfriend and girlfriend. I know their is the "Partner" in ILspy, but whenever I try it I get the error "Non-invocable member "SimDescrption.Partner" cannot be used like a method. Here is the method I tried while testing.
Code: 
private static void AddExampleBuff(Sim Target, Sim Actor)
{
if (Actor.IsInRomanticRelationshipWith(Target)) && Actor.SimDescription.Partner(Target))
{
ulong buffGuid = BuffExample.StaticGuid;
Target.BuffManager.AddElement(buffGuid, Origin.None);
}
}
Also is it possible to create custom relationships? If not it is no big deal. I will most likely use moodlets to accomplish these custom relationships. Any help would be appreciated thanks.

"Partner" is a property, which is a special kind of method that is used like a simple value. In other words, to check if the Sim's partner is the target, you'd just use an equality comparison like:
Code: 
Actor.SimDescription.Partner == Target.SimDescription

My guess is probably not, though I admit I'm not the most qualified to speak on the topic.

I have another question. Is there a way to apply a condition if the two sims are friends or not? for example something similar to.
Code: 
Actor.SimDescription.AreFriends == Target.SimDescription

There ought to be a way to retrieve the relationship value between two sims and then compare it to the minimum value for friendship. I believe it's called LTR (long-term relationship). Sorry for the vagueness. My computer with my code on it is still out for repair.

The liking value would probably work, but you can also do the following:

Code: 
Relationship relationship = Relationship.Get(Actor, Target, false);
if (relationship != null && relationship.AreFriends())
{
    // Code you want to run if friends
}


This will check whether the Target shows up as any variation of "friend" in the Actor's relationship panel, including Old Friend and Distant Friend.

I would suggest something like

Code: 
var rel = Actor.SimDescription.GetRelationship(Target.SimDescription, false);
if (rel != null && rel.LTR.CurrentLTR == Sims3.UI.Controller.LongTermRelationshipTypes.Partner)
{
    // code to run if BF/GF
}


The RelashionshipTypes Enum has all possible relationships Sims can have:

Undefined,
Stranger,
Acquaintance,
Disliked,
DistantFriend,
Friend,
GoodFriend,
BestFriend,
OldFriend,
BestFriendsForever,
RomanticInterest,
ExSpouse,
Ex,
Enemy,
OldEnemies,
Partner,
Fiancee,
Spouse,
Default,
All

"Partner" is Bf/Gf, "Spouse" is husband/wife

That title changes the more you post here on the site. I've been stuck on "Field Researcher" for what seems like forever, but I quite like it.

Speaking of questions would anyone know if it is possible to make buffs invincible? correct me if I am wrong, but I could have sworn I saw an invicible buff before while using Nrass. Apparently the buff would increase skill gains from the best of my memory. But, at the moment I am simply interested in making a buff invincible.

Well, that's a new tidbit to me! Is it in code snippets?

Will this detect partner relationships or just variants of friend? I.e. if you check against the LTR value, you should get sims who have any type close relationship, whether their status is some sort of friend, romantic interest, partner, etc. I'm pretty sure different types of relationships can have the same value. So it might depend on whether you're trying to test for just being emotionally close or whether you specifically want friends but not romantic interests.

Correct, AreFriends() will be false if the Sims are romantically involved (or if they're exes), whereas an LTR value threshold would include such relationships if they're on good terms.

Oh this is quite helpful! Initially, I checked Romantic Interests in this very convoluted and arguably weird way Reading over it after having gone through the options here, I just realised it's very prone to return mistakes (In case you're curious

Lol yeah! I actually copied it from EA funnily enough, although in that use case it made sense since it was straight from a social interaction (which already came with checks in the XML against what LTR they are)
