Modding Diary - Premature Nooboos (Patreon)

Disclaimer: the baby incubator is meant to be used at the hospital, Im only using it at home for testing purposes

I did something exciting this week 😮

introducing....premature nooboos

It all started last week....

Last week I was able to get the NICU bassinet working in game, at the time the babies were still full sized, and dressed in their regular baby onesie

At the beginning of this week I was able to make the babies smaller

then after some sweats and tears (mostly tears) I was fortunate enough to figure out the scripting that allowed me to make babies put on this diaper and ecg patches🥺 this looks so much better than the onsies and it really makes the whole experience feel more realistic

  I added some different swatches to the NICU incubator Then of course I did something and broke the baby and turned it into a kraken, so I started over

  and then today I wanted to make an interaction that allows adult sims to read to their baby, like this⤵️it should work similar to the "read to child" interaction that allow you to select which baby you want to read to, but I got stuck on the part where the babies were greyed out and not select-able, which is something I will have to figure out next week.  I wanted to get started on the animation this week but unfortunately things took longer than expected this week 🥲

because of how lot the incubator is, sims will have to sit on a chair next to the incubator to interact with the baby, it took me forever and a half just to get the damn chair to snap to the right spot 😑this was also when the baby kept turning into a kraken, but I figured it out in the end!

 frankly I haven't been this excited for an update in a while now. 🤗It just makes so happy to be able to do something that I thought was impossible previously.

next week I will get started on the animation that allow sims to interact with their baby. I also want to add an interaction later that allow sims to hold their baby on their chest. It would also be fun if we can get friends or families to visit your sim at the hospital post birth.🫢
