how odd!! i just tested and the neighbours are coming up for me.. it might be a mod conflict but cant imagine what it can be .. i have just updated the fictional version for you (if that's what you are playing) with a tweak to see if that fixes the problem. Please let me know asap if it does/doesn't :)
Yeah i agree there are some overlaps between progressives and environmentalist ideologies.. it was kind of based off the green party that is in the UK who do have environmentalism as their core ideology... i will stilll look to convert environmentalist into a stance rather than ideology potentially
Judy justice is a fictional character so not based off any individual BUT for the realistic version of the political world mod i could add some environmentalist central themes to the AOC guru if that is realistic?
I used greta thunberg mainly because when anyone thinks of environmentalism they think of her.. i dont think there is any other individual that has had her level of global recognition for this cause. I definitely agree that this isnt the only cause she believes in and when i made this mod she hadnt yet done the the global flotilla to be fair.
I do think its a good idea to split socialists into communists and anarchists as that could work well with the elected officials feature that i am working on so that there can be sims that resist authority etc etc.
yes apologies two other ppl have reported the same thing which i am trying to fix at the moment.. its quite weird as im not getting the same notice when i download the mod myself..
I have reuploaded the mod.. can you check if you are still getting the same error?
Hello!! Sorry for the delay in response and thanks for the feedback!
In response:
1. Any sim that is in a world that is not the world they live in will be considered an foreign sim. In the future i hope to expand this with introducing visa process to move to another world etc
2. After today's EA patch i will do an update to fix the issue of supernatural sims being affected when they are around other supernatural sims.
3. I am in the process of creating a website to provide more documentation and tutorials for my mod.. atm there is just the information on itch.io as well as this patreon post where i also explain what worlds are affiliated with different political ideologies (🌍 Behind the Scenes: Which Political Beliefs Dominate Each World? | Patreon)
4. In regards to lot traits and their effects i will update the itch.io page with some more information but each lot trait gives a positive boost depending on the political ideology of the sim(except libertarian currently)
Law & order = Conservatives/Plumboblican
National heritage site = Nationalists/Simlandian
Activist hub = Progressive/SulSulite
Charity Focused Community = Socialists/Landshaarers
it should get automatically assigned when you load into the game but you can also manually assign the intensity by clicking onto your sim and then the political world menu and there should be political intensity option there
hello! Yes if you follow my patreon i have provide some clarity as to the next updates. Next weeks update will provide the option to not include political gurus in the game :)
Thanks so much for the kind words and thoughtful feedback! 😊 I totally get what you mean, not every sim should feel like politics is their whole personality. I love the idea of setting how politically affected a Sim is, with a varying degree of levels which can change that over time.
I haven't focused on the teen perspective when it comes to politics but i will make some tweaks for my next update so that it takes that into account.
Really appreciate you sharing your ideas, it helps so much with improving the mod! 💙
Hello! Thank you for your feedback, i do appreciate it.
Your suggestions definitely make sense. i can reduce the chance of the gurus being at certain locations. I purposely put the logic so that they show up everyday at those venues.
For my next update i will also reduce the intensity of the buffs.
ahh thank you!! and yes omg i will reduce the percentage possibility for this as that should definitely not be the case.. Will update this week with this amendment
Ahh thank you so much ! I am glad you are enjoying and i ALWAYS welcome feedback! Your suggestions are great ! i have received the same feedback from others on the apolitical trait and fictional gurus and they will definitely be part of my next updates next week :)
Great idea on incorporating the political opinion into preferences i think that will definitely add more depths to gameplay. I think this will be something i could incorporate when i have been able to add more features like elections, politicians, etc .
I dont think technocrats is a political philosophy?? I just wanted to add elon musk as a political guru in the game but didnt feel like his political views aligns with any political view....
Hey! The mod gives Sims political traits based on their other traits or the region they’re in, but it’s really up to you how (or if) that affects their lifestyle. If your Sim owns a business and ended up Libertarian, that actually fits pretty well. they’d much rather be their own boss than work under “the man.” But if there’s ever a weird mix, that’s kind of the point! You get to decide if they roll with it or shake things up 😄
Thanks! Hope you have fun with it. I’ve seen Kiara's political party trait mods too! Definitely interesting how different creators approach it. I wanted to make mine more globally relevant, but a Simlish take is always fun and i do intend to make an immersive/simlish version of this mod that isnt based on real life.
i included trump as i do think he has had an insane effect on nationalist movements across the world but i am thinking about replacing some of the gurus so isnt that much american influence.
Great Idea!! I can do that :) Will incorporate into my next updates. Stay updated on my patreon where i put out surveys for people to vote on what they want to see next :)
Heya! Did you make sure the political world folder is only one folder level deep. (e.g., Mods > PoliticalWorldMod instead of Mods > PoliticalWorldMod > AnotherFolder).
When you are extracting the zip sometimes it does create another sub folder. Double check that you have downloaded the xml injector
