Get Up And Go
by deadlystingnyc
Your Sim wakes up in the morning and just stands there. Or wanders off to watch
TV with a full bladder and a rumbling stomach. Get Up and Go gives them a nudge and gets their day started on the right foot.
Why You Need This
Sims have no sense of morning priorities. After waking they will ignore a critical need in favor of socializing, or walk across the lot to start a painting while their knees are locked trying to keep their bladder from bursting. Satisfying morning needs manually across a busy household is exactly the kind of micromanagement that gets in the way of actually playing.
This mod handles it for you.
How It Works
After a household Sim wakes from overnight sleep (not naps), the mod pushes them to address the following needs in priority order: bladder, body hygiene, oral hygiene, and hunger. Needs are sorted by current value so the most urgent is handled first. Bladder jumps to the front of the queue if it is near triggering the "have to potty" walkstyle.
Hunger is only pushed if the Sim is already hungry. Teen, Young Adult,
Adult, and Elder Sims are pushed to cook a breakfast recipe from the fridge, stove or grill rather than grab a snack or desserts, though they will still opt for savory leftovers before cooking. Children grab leftovers or a snack from the fridge. Lazy Sims are excluded from cooking pushes and have no ban on desserts.
The mod runs on the active household's home lot and on rented vacation lots.
