Chat Pack – More Social Interactions for Your Sims V1.9 Mod

Chat Pack – More Social Interactions for Your Sims V1.9 Mod

UPDATE: Updated after a long hiatus. Because maintaining chilled out versions was troublesome, I’ve made a compromise and updated all buffs to a sort of middle ground between all three versions. There is a new “Give Unsolicited Advice” interaction, and sentiments should now have better support.

Introducing a project I’m very proud of: the Chat Pack. This mod adds several new social interactions to sims!

Here is a quick rundown of each interaction:

Complain About Lost Youth – Adult/Elder Sims can use this Friendly interaction and gain a +2 Happy moodlet for 4 hours from a much needed release of steam.

Complain About Morning Sickness – Pregnant Sims can use this Friendly interaction; there is no moodlet gained from this, but it has speech bubbles!

Complain About Puberty – Teen Sims can use this Friendly interaction and gain a +2 Happy Moodlet for 4 hours from having someone understand them.

Discuss Honeymoon – Engaged Sims can use this Friendly interaction with their fiance and gain a +2 Flirty Moodlet for 4 hours from some exciting honeymoon plans.

Discuss Midlife Crisis – Adult Sims can use this Friendly interaction and gain a random +3 Tense Moodlet for 24 hours (3 possibilities regarding career, relationship, or spending money), each possibility includes whims involving leaving a partner, getting a new job, or buying things.

Discuss Weird Symptoms – Male Sims pregnant with alien babies can use this Friendly interaction to discuss their weird symptoms. Sims who have just heard about these symptoms will get either a +2 Scared moodlet (is it contagious!?) or a +2 Playful moodlet (ah, they must be kidding!)

Enthuse About Baby – Pregnant Sims can use this Friendly interaction and gain a +2 Happy moodlet for 4 hours from excitement for their new baby!

Enthuse About Wedding – Engaged Sims can use this Friendly interaction and gain a +2 Happy moodlet for 4 hours from excitement for their big day!

Express Feeling Sick – Sick Sims can use this Friendly interaction with their parents or caregivers and, depending on the outcome, gain a +2 Happy moodlet for 4 hours or +2 Sad moodlet for 12 hours, while their parent/guardian might get a +2 Sad moodlet for 4 hours (not if they hate children, though) or +2 Angry moodlet for 4 hours.

Share Funny Story About Children – Sims with 3 Parenting Skill (requires Parenthood) or more can use this Funny interaction and gain a +2 Happy moodlet for 4 hours from telling such a funny story about kids.

Nag About Career – Adult/Elder Sims can use this Mean interaction with their Teen and older children and gain a +2 Angry moodlet for 4 hours and their child will gain a +2 Tense moodlet for 4 hours.

Nag About Partner – Adult/Elder Sims can use this Mean interaction with their Young Adult and older children and gain a +2 Angry moodlet for 4 hours and their child will gain a +2 Tense moodlet for 4 hours.

Nag For Grandchildren – Adult/Elder Sims can use this Mean interaction with their Young Adult and older children and gain a +2 Angry moodlet for 4 hours and their child will gain a +2 Tense moodlet for 4 hours.

Talk About First Time – Romantic and Player Sims can use this Friendly interaction with Young Adult and older sims and gain a +2 Confident moodlet from telling a nostalgic woohoo story; Sims who heard the story are not Romantic gain a +2 Embarrassed moodlet from TMI. (Updated to fix some busted test conditions)

Tell Poorly Aged Joke – Elder Sims can use this Funny interaction, but only other Elders will truly enjoy it, gaining a +2 Playful moodlet for 4 hours; however, younger sims (Teen, Young Adult, and Adult) who are not Mean will get a +2 Embarrassed moodlet for 4 hours from the insensitive joke.

Tell to Get Off Lawn – Elder Sims can use this Mean interaction on Child and Teen sims and gain a +2 Angry moodlet for 4 hours from those darn kids!

Announce Engagement Engaged sims can announce their engagement to other sims and both parties gain a +2 Happy moodlet for 4 hours!

Discuss Loss of Loved One Sims who have a mourning buff relating to losing someone close to them can use this Friendly Interaction and gain a +3 Sad moodlet for 4 hours and unlock reminiscing about a lost loved one! (see below)

Reminisce About Lost Loved One After talking about losing a loved one, Sims will gain a hidden trait that lets them use this Friendly Interaction and gain a +2 Happy moodlet for 4 hours.
Ask Meaning of Forbidden Word: Child Sims can use this Friendly Interaction and, depending on the manners of who they asked, will give the asked sim a +2 Playful or +2 Embarrassed moodlet for 4 hours.

Ask Where Babies Come From: Child Sims can use this Friendly Interaction and might either be satisfied (+2 Happy) or unsatisfied (+2 Angry) with the answer. Asked Sims can gain a +2 Happy/Confident/Focused/Embarrassed/Energized moodlet depending on the answer they gave. When this interaction fails, the asking sim will gain a +2 Angry moodlet and the asked sim will gain a +2 Embarrassed moodlet.

Tell Dad Joke: Dad Sims can use this Funny Interaction with their (grand)children/dependents and gain a +2 Playful moodlet with many variations of classic dad jokes. Their (grand)children/dependents will, however, gain a +2 Embarrassed moodlet from the groanworthy jokes!
Show Ultrasound Pictures: Pregnant Sims in their 2nd Trimester and later can use this Friendly Interaction and give most sims a +2 Happy moodlet, but sims who Hate Children will gain a +2 Angry moodlet instead. Because of how Sims 4 handles interactions that are differentiated between “touching” and “not touching,” the interaction looks best when 2 sims are already facing each other.

Discuss Politics From Left/Right: Sims who have a determined political stance (this is done by debating politics in the City Living Political career or assigning the hidden political position traits through a cheat or mod) can use this Friendly Interaction. After using this interaction gives the sim the “Talks Politics” trait, showing they are open to political discussion (and argument; see below). Depending on the target’s political stance, the target will gain either a +2 Happy or +2 Angry moodlet. If the target does not also have the “Talks Politics” trait, they will gain a +2 embarrassment buff from such a taboo discussion.

Argue Politics From Left/Right: Sims who Talk Politics can use this Mean Interaction on sims with opposing political positions, this argument works like arguments in the Parenthood Game Pack, and uses the buffs from said pack depending on the outcome.

**NEW** Give Unsolicited Advice: Adult and Elder sims can give unsolicited advice to sims who are pregnant, recently married, new parents, mourning, divorced, left at the altar, attending a wedding, and/or recently fired or promoted. Sims on the receiving end of this get a +2 tense moodlet for 2 hours.
