Let your Sims hit the basketball court on their own!
Tired of manually telling your Sims to practice basketball? With Auto Basketball, your Sims can autonomously practice dribbling and shoot hoops without needing constant instructions!
This mod makes basketball a more natural part of your Sims' daily routines, while introducing a smart cooldown system and a daily practice schedule to keep their activities balanced.
🏀 Features
1. Autonomous Basketball Practice
Sims can automatically perform two basketball activities:
- Practice Dribbling – Sims will autonomously practice their dribbling skills.
- Shoot Around – Sims will autonomously shoot hoops and enjoy some casual basketball practice.
No manual commands needed! Just place a Basketball Hoop on the lot and let your Sims enjoy the game.
2. Smart Cooldown System
Nobody wants their Sims playing basketball all day long!
To prevent excessive repetition, this mod includes a built-in cooldown system.
- Sims won't continuously spam basketball activities.
- After practicing too much, Sims will take a break before starting another autonomous basketball session.
- Helps create more balanced and natural autonomous behavior.
Your Sims can enjoy basketball without becoming obsessed with it!
3. Daily Basketball Schedule (6 AM – 10 PM)
Basketball practice is available autonomously only during designated hours:
- Start Time: 6:00 AM
- End Time: 10:00 PM
Outside these hours, Sims won't autonomously start basketball practice through this mod.
This helps maintain a more realistic daily routine and prevents Sims from randomly practicing basketball late at night.
