SCREENSHOTS
I've been looking through the forums, more specifically on the WCIF section, to maybe find a new idea for a mod, and then someone(name on the credits) bringed the idea for a mod where you can get random money from finding a star or a planet, and the chance of it happens were based on the sim's logic skill.
So, i took the challenge, and now i introduce to you, the mod i called The Astronomy Mod !
What it does?
This mod makes Astronomy more fun and dynamic, by:
Allowing you to find more stars and planets
Make you get random money from finding a star or a planet, instead of just $500
And makes the chance of finding a star or a planet be based on the sim's logic skill hability!
So, it provides more dynamism to it!
How it works?
Basically when your sim uses a telescope there's a random chance of he find a star or a planet(depending on the action), and your sim gets a certain random amount of cash from finding it, being it low or high depending on the find! And the much logic skill your sim gain, more chance he will have to find more stars and planets!
Do i have to install all the 3 .packages?
No, you must select just one of them, each package has a specific function and overrides the same resources! So, you can just have only one installed to not cause conflict! Here how they works:
Cool, but i want to change the amount of cash they get. How do i do that?
You'll need SimPE and the package that has the resource "Tuning - Money (Min/ Max)" implemented on it.
Once you have both, open the .package using SimPE, then go to Behaviour Constant(BCON), there will be a file called Tuning - Money (Min/ Max), click on it, and then click on Plugin View(If you can't see Plugin View, then click on Window >> Plugin View, it should be visible now), you'll see 4 variables, each of them holds an specific function:
The First One holds the minimum money your sim can get from finding a Planet.
The Second One holds the maximum money your sim can get from finding a Planet.
The Third One holds the minimum money your sim can get from finding a Star.
The Forth One holds the maximum money your sim can get from finding a Star.
