The original interaction to breed a pair of frogs simply yields the Sim who performs the action a new frog for their inventory and a cooldown period of 200 Sim-minutes before they can perform the interaction again, regardless of the amount of frogs they have previously bred or have in their possession. There is no built-in way to improve this and little long-term benefit to breeding frogs beyond the initial collection.
This mod seeks to give this system more depth by adding a custom five-level skill (Frog Breeding) that allows your Sims to slowly decrease the length of the cooldown they face when the time comes to breed frogs on the way to completing the Frogs Collection, thus providing an incentive to continuing to use the aforementioned frog interaction rather than quickly abandon it once all types of frogs are obtained.
The modified cooldowns depending on your Sim's Frog Breeding Skill are as follows:
- At Level 1 Frog Breeding, your Sim's cooldown will be 200 Sim-minutes.
- At Level 2 Frog Breeding, your Sim's cooldown will be 150 Sim-minutes.
- At Level 3 Frog Breeding, your Sim's cooldown will be 100 Sim-minutes.
- At Level 4 Frog Breeding, your Sim's cooldown will be 50 Sim-minutes.
- At Level 5 Frog Breeding, your Sim will no longer have to wait between frog-breeding sessions.
The Frog Breeding Skill is naturally increased by breeding frogs in-game.
