This mod enables realistic school absences for kids and teens by allowing them to call in sick. It also disables some of the more playful, erratic sickness behaviors (like exaggerated sneezing or comedic illness animations), making health events more mature and grounded.
How It Works
Call-in Interaction: Children must ask an older household Sim to call the school for them, while teens can call themselves. The interaction appears under the phone’s School menu and is enabled when a Sim has a “sick” or “fake sick” buff.
Tunable Mechanics: The timing (e.g., before 7 AM for school) and criteria can be adjusted via XML tuning files, but these features are included out of the box.
No Whimsical Sickness: The mod disables playful illness effects (like “gas and giggles”), giving a more subdued and realistic representation of getting unwell.
Benefits
By adding more natural illness behavior—such as calling in sick realistically—this mod enhances immersion and works well with story-driven play or more serious gameplay styles.
