Modding Diary- having one of those weeks :/ (Patreon)

Hi guys! hope you all are well!

The good news this week is I fixed the bassinet bug I was having last week where the baby would only spawn in the hospital bassinet 

now they spawn in the regular bassinets

aaaand that's about the only thing that worked according to plan this week lol

I made a poll asking what type of birth position you guys preferred besides water birth, and the vast majority picked "birth on hands and knees on the bed" and  "partner will deliver the baby" which is something I was very excited to work on, however I was having one of those weeks where nothing was working properly. I spent most of the week trying to make the interaction work on the bed but I encountered nothing but bugs after bugs 🐛🐛🐛💀

finally I had to use my backup plan because I do not want to spend more time being stuck. 

so instead of initiating the interaction from the bed, you will need to find this "birth pillow" from build and buy and place it on the bed manually 

when your sim is ready to give birth you just need to click on the pillow to give birth. the pros for using a birth pillow is that  I would not need to override any game files which means its less likely to conflict with other mods and less likely to break with each patch. the the con is that Im worried alot of people are not gonna read the release post and be confused why their sim cant give birth when clicking on the bed, but that just means I will spend some extra time on mod support, which is fair tradeoff.

your sim will still look like they are giving birth on the bed, its just the interaction is tied to the pillows instead of the bed itself. the partner sim will then come over and help your sim deliver the baby(excuse the clipping in the arms as I still need to work on the animations) 

I will work on the animation next week and I will have some nice screenshots to show you guys. im really hoping to make the animation as intimate as possible, im thinking about making the partner sim get on the bed help the pregnant sim push in various positions then finally have them give birth when they are on their hand and knees. the skin to skin contact will also be alot better since the partner will actually be able to directly interact with the baby and the birthing sim. 😍

again I still dont have a  release date yet, I appreciate all your patience and your support! 💗💗
