This global mod changes the universal "X is HOT!" message after a Sim scopes the room to one that reflects the actual attraction the Sim feels towards the target of their affection.
It also adds a similar message when checking out a specific Sim.
When checking out a specific Sim a message about too old/young is also displayed.
There are 6 levels of phrasing and each level has two possibilities, as follows
- >90 - X is smokin'/sexy!
- >75 - X is gorgeous/alluring
- >50 - X is attractive/nice
- >25 - X is agreeable/alright
- >1 - X is kinda OK/so so
- <1 - X is boring/has a pulse (only displayed for Flirt/Check Sim Out)
The mod changes one BHAV (0x22DC 'Interaction - Scope Room') and one STR# (0x012D 'Dialog prim string set') in the 'PersonGlobals' (0x7F01EC29) semi-global group, so will conflict with any mod that does the same. It also adds one STR# (0x2001 'Hot or not') to the same group.
Known to conflict with Midge The Tree's Romantic Standards, LdDarcy_PieMenuTextStringsFix.package, Bigfoot_Romance.package and romancemod.package. This mod needs to load AFTER any of these.
Known to conflict with Lord Darcy's 'Pie Menu Text Strings Fix', (STR# 0x012D in group 0x7F01EC29), either have my mod load after their's (which will delete their changes), or merge the changed strings from my mod into their's.
