Autonomous Casual Romance

[strangetomato]

I just installed ACR.

That is all. ;)







Ophelia: Wanna make out?

Johnny: YES!!!




Random college student: Get a room!

Ripp: *is generally okay with this*




Many, MANY makeouts later... (easily more than 10)

Ripp: *is still generally cool with this*




Not a care in the world...



So, ummm.... jealousy? What jealousy?

(I didn't adjust a thing, by the way.)

Johnny isn't jealous either. He's a 2/4 on the jealousy scale, so he won't kick Ripp's ass unless Phi has a wedding ring on her finger. Phi is 3/4 on the jealousy scale (requires some form of commitment to get jealous, but that wouldn't really apply anyway), and Ripp is... you guessed it... 0/4. He really doesn't give a shit.

Nobody has made any move to woohoo anyone yet and I've played through about a day with them. I wonder when that kicks in?



Anyway, I'm liking this so far. You can adjust things to your liking, so it's pretty easy to control. I've finally jumped on the bandwagon. Go me!

Now, I'm off to play with Pleasantview a little... I'm working it up in the "background" for my story. ACR should be a fun time there.

Tee hee hee. You gave in to the pressure!!!

Even with 3 bolters, its possible for them to not do much. Both have to be currently not busy, and there has to be an open bed/couch/hot tub/photo booth. :P You can also set how strong the autonomy is from really low to high. If you want them woohooing more, maybe turn it up?

Just be aware that this affects when you have sims on community lots too. Like if you're playing Ripp, and he goes downtown and you see Frances in the background out of your control, it is possible for Frances to use ACR to fool around with whoever else is on the lot. :P So be careful!

It wasn't pressure. It was sweet, sweet temptation. ;)

Oh, they were busy... busy making out. They all stood around congratulating eahc other and kissing, etc., so I wouldn't call that busy, really. :P I think they're all on high autonomy too. How long does it take them to get ACR "horny"?

Oh dear god... Frances really could decide to put the moves on Ripp... or Tank... or any number of guys he's hot for. LOL! This is going to be entertaining.

In a worst-case scenario, I could always exit a community lot without saving, so I'm just going to roll with it.

I've had sims woohoo at the drop of a hat. They wake up, they're both in the same room, so they go at it. :P

When it comes to babies, you do have the option of turning off the Try for a baby dialog. I know I do. That way you can control the breeding. Unless you want people to have tons of babies. You could have your own Jerry Springer Show or something. XD

I want to see that! Why, why won't they just do it? *snicker*

I really just want to see who first makes a move on who. Ripp and Phi haven't slept together, so maybe that keeps him from advancing on her? Johnny and Phi prefer to just make out, it seems. He really is saving it for marriage, I think.

I probably will turn off those options for sections of the story where I need control. I have plans for certain things. But otherwise... the randomness will be fun.

Just because they haven't done it yet doesn't make them less likely. I've had sims give it up for the first time with someone who's barely a friend in sim terms. They were maybe 60/10, and boom, sex. I guess it just depends on the person. :P

Randomness can be fun.....unless you already have 7 sims in the house and twins pop out. D:

I see that now. *snicker* (And why would RIPP, of all people, let that stop him?)

Yeah... That sounds like a bad scene. :P Do you use that "lot full of sims" hack? I'd never be able to use that one. I find the playing too slow when I have to move between so many sims, and I hate missing things.
