WooHooWellness module 8 Compatibility Info (Patreon)
Content
Hello everyone,
After perusing the survey answers and running tests in my game according to what was reported, to confirm things, it became absolutely undeniable that some mods heavily conflict with module 8 of WooHoo Wellness & Pregnancy Overhaul and prevent it from running properly.
Luckily, suspecting this already, I had started thinking about how to get around these roadblocks. I discussed my idea with Frank and with his guidance was able to put it into action, which means a big part of these conflicts from other mods onto mine has been worked around from my side. Yet some conflictual elements remain, because those mods aren't mine and there's only so much I can do on my end only.
-------------------------
PART I: About Sims not getting pregnant for surrogating
Here is the detail of what was found thanks to your survey answers and a day of testing all sorts of things with all sorts of mods in here, and what solutions could be implemented:
PLEASE NOTE: I have by this point done all I could compatibility-wise on my end. Yes it's not perfect, far from it, and never will be. Were I to try I would simply be trying to reverse the conflict situation, ie making my mod cause issues to Turbo's mods instead of the current situation of his mod causing conflict to mine - and why would I waste my time and effort trying to get that just-as-bad result?
Bottom line is NEITHER of Turbo's mods are perfectly compatible with my mod. My mod is perfectly compatible with the game as that's what they are built for. Same thing with Turbo's mods. Sometimes some elements of mods are needed a certain way and that means there are compatibility hitches.
If you use Wonderful Whims especially, you must use version 2.21+ to have module 8 work properly.
-------------------------------------
PART II AND III - About some players not being able to 'Welcome New Baby' or 'Send Surrogate Child to Its Parents' when there is only 1 offspring
This is still a complete mystery. I have tested this many, many times and have never had an issue.
What players have found to be able to cause the issue:
- Some custom crib / bassinet CC
- Some combinations of settings in the "Offspring" tab of McPregnancy (module of Mccc)
If one of you is willing to try to help finding what conflict is causing this sporadic issue by doing more in-depth investigation with me on Discord, let me know.
Workaround:
I added cheat interactions under "Family and Pregnancy" then "Sim Status". Use these if you don't see the interactions to send away / welcome surrogate child for one offspring.
NOTE: for the "DEBUG - Send Surrogate Child to Parents" one, the child has to be a toddler, it won't work on a baby. For the normal interaction and for ""DEBUG - Welcome Surrogate Child", it can be a baby.

That's it for today.
