(Ground Throw) - Wip Brawling Mod (Patreon)

Hi, hope everyone is doing great. I am working on the next Update for the Brawling Mod, a grappling throw interaction,

The idea behind this update was to add self-defense Interactions to the mod. I wanted it to be more like a defensive interaction to be performed after your sims are being harassed or bullied, but there isn't such a thing in the game. I mean, sure, there are mean interactions that could count as bullying, and there are also some mischief interactions that could also count. 

But I don't think that is enough for what I really wanted to make, it will need more looking into. and it would be harder to make it with just an update, so if I decided to continue with it, it would be way more fitting to turn it into its own mod.

The update will still have the same first-planned animations. (because I do really like how they turn out to be, and I am excited to share them with all of you)

Also, the interaction will still work somewhat as a self-defense interaction; if your sim received some negative buff from a mean interaction, they will get removed after performing this interaction.

Since the animation looks more advanced than the other interactions, I have decided to make it more skill-dependent.

So, for the interactions to appear, your sim should have at least three levels of fitness skill or higher; I did also add some details, as the higher your skill, the less likely you will get hit.

If your sims have a higher skill than 5, they will successfully throw the target, But if your sim has a lower fitness level than 5, it will not manage to parry all the punches. But they will still manage to throw the target.

(Ground Throw) With a Low Fitness Skill:

The update is nearly done. But there is still something that I think is missing.

I mean, I like the animations, and I do like the moves and the fight, but there's still something missing. I mean, not everyone will fight back and start throwing punches if they get pushed,

So, to keep it realistic; I am adding a new animation variant to the interaction (as in the picture below). The animation will start without the pre-fight, just a simple push and then grab and throw. 

Now, if you decide to perform this interaction against a sim with a low fitness skill (let's say lower than 4), they will get thrown immediately without managing to fight back. 

Mods Patch Updates:

I have checked and tested most of my mods, and they seem fine with the last patch; all of my mods don't use scripts or heavy codes that should easily break,

The last patches from Ea caused a lot of issues. I'll soon post a new update post for all my mods,

I should also mention that a weird bug caused Moodlets to disappear when you load the game. This will break some features with my mods, but nothing major. While I was working on fixing that, It got fixed with the last game patch, 1.105.345, so make sure to update your game to that.
