BO - Unlimited Sims
x 44
Do you hate the 8-sims-per-lot limit? Most likely, you do!
Do you have LotFullOfSims installed to overcome that limit? Probably!
Now there's a better way: remove LotFullOfSims, and install this mod in stead!
It's tiny, it works for ALL games, and it does NOT conflict with ANYTHING!
And here is why you want to use this mod instead of "LotFullOfSims":
Normally, the unmodded game keeps track of the number of sims and/or pets living on any lot by running a BHAV name "Lot - Full of Sims?". If the lot contains eight sims, or six sims and up to four pets, this BHAV tells the game that the lot is full. As a result, when you click a visitor, you will find no menu option for asking them to move in. Or two sims might TFB a million times and never get pregnant.
The "LotFullOfSims" mod changes several of the BHAVs that are called by "Lot - Full of Sims?" in order to manipulate the result just so new additions are posible. Any sim can move in, and TFB-ing sims can get pregnant as if there is plenty of room. However, the changes that the LFoS mod makes, cause conflicts with several other mods, including TwoJeffs' "PregForAllGenders" mod.
"Unlimited Sims" is much simpler, though. Instead of altering other BHAVs, it changes the main BHAV directly. Now, without calling any other BHAVs and thus ignoring the actualy sims/pets living here, "Lot - Full of Sims?" simply reports that only one poor, sad, lonely sim lives here without any pets and that, as a result, there is room aplenty to add more sims and/or pets. Now, there are NO conflicts with any other mods. Clean and simple.
This way, you can just use TwoJeffs' PregForAllGenders instead of AncientHighway's version, which means that you can install BO - Alien Experiments - P4A Override (which doesn't work with AH's mod), if you want to
Any settings you may have in your UserStartup.cheat file to accommodate LotFullOfSims, are still useful for adding families from neighborhood view. So you can leave them where they are.

Yes, dear, it is. In fact, what it does is ALWAYS reporting that only one single sim lives on the lot with no pets in sight, and that you can go on adding more. So there's room for unlimited sims and unlimited pets.
In fact, the settings in your UserStartup.cheat are the only limitation, and those only work in neighborhood view. You could set it up to read:
uintProp maxTotalSims 200
uintProp maxTotalHumans 200
uintProp maxTotalPets 199
That way, you could store a total of 200 creatures on the lot, in any combination of pets and/or sims. But in-game, while playing the lot, there's actually no limitations at all!

Thank you sooooo much, BO!!!! You, sir, are AWESOME!!! ^_^

I'm glad this little thingy makes you happy, Simette. I have a few more of those, and hope that you'll find some others that you like.
