I love the Cottage Living EP! I play in that world with all its elements more often than with any other EP. While playing, I noticed a few things I’d like to change/improve. So, I made a list of what I’d like to change and then created these mods! All of the small mods are in one zip file below. You can install however many of them you wish. If you have suggestions for more, I’m always open to suggestions.
Better Chicken Treats – This mod increases the distance that chickens will look for thrown treats. It’s not 100% effective (some Sims really don’t know where to throw those treats!) but is does greatly increase the likelihood of the chicken finding and eating the given treat.
Fewer Upgrade Parts – I reduced the number of upgrade parts needed on each upgrade to a value of 1. That means, you only need one upgrade part to build each upgrade.
Foxes No Longer Kill – Rather than completely remove the fox lot trait, I decided to keep things interesting by only disabling the foxes’ ability to kill chickens. They can still steal eggs and scare the crap out of chickens though. This will also stop the foxes from killing cute little bunnies!
Less Sadness About Animals – If one of your animals (cow, llama, or chicken) dies, your Sim will be very sad for a very long time. Same happens if you sell or trade an animal. With this mod, I have reduced the severity of the sadness and the amount of time that your Sim will be sad.
More Social Gain with Animals – What this mod does is greatly increase the number of social points gained for doing friendly actions and then decreases the rate at which social points decay.
No Dirty Chickens – Stops your chickens from ever becoming dirty. So, no more sad, stinky green chickens no matter how dirty their coop gets!
