we talking dating fr.

⚠️ IMPORTANT:
you MUST click “Actively Dating This Sim” first
this gives both sims the Currently Dating trait
and unlocks all the interactions.

learning each other
figuring it out in real time
dealing with the good AND the awkward parts

this is just the beginning too…
we expanding this way further

🧩 If the XML Injector is not installed, certain interactions, buffs, and trait features will not appear or work as intended.

📥 You can download the XML Injector here (by Scumbumbo/Triplis):
https://scumbumbomods.com/xml-injector

Place it directly in your Mods folder (no more than one subfolder deep).

⚠️ Important Installation Rule

Each mod comes in two versions:

User‑Directed Version
Autonomous Version

You must choose ONE version only.
Do NOT place both versions in your Mods folder at the same time.

Having both installed will cause conflicts, missing interactions, or unexpected behavior.

AUTO Version

“Auto” means the actions happen autonomously (without you controlling it).
Just like how Sims have a mind of their own.
So yes, you will usually NOT see pie menus for mods/files that you downloaded that say AUTO. That’s normal.

User Directed Version

“User Directed” means the actions are in your control.
Mods/files that say User Directed should show pie menus because you’re the one choosing the interactions.
