Description
Requires NPC Events Shared Library
This mod converts the base game NPC birthday party to a goaled event. A bartender and entertainer will also be hired along with the caterer that was already included. These invites should also be a little bit more common now.
A tip to make the event run smoothly: keep an eye on the caterer at the beginning of the event. They will make a cake and autonomously put candles on it, but if they place the cake on the wrong section of a counter or table, they won't be able to add candles. You'll probably have to move the cake so that they can. The birthday sim will be pushed to autonomously blow out the candles as soon as they're placed, but they may not do it right away. I've added an extra failsafe so that if you manually select to have the sim age up with the cake, they shouldn't age up again during the party. This previously didn't count, so the sim would still have the push to age up and eventually do it without candles. It's not as big a deal with these changes, but it's still best to let the aging up happen autonomously to ensure they don't accidentally age up twice. If you don't want the birthday sim to age up autonomously at all, there's an addon to block the autonomy during the event.
I've also changed the birthday sim filter for the base game birthday party to include any sims known by the household. I made it a separate package because it can be overwhelming to have that many options for the birthday sim, but it's useful if you want to throw a birthday party for an NPC or have a joint party with a friend.
