Request for alternative No-20K handout

Not that I talk much but I'll take the fifth!!! ;D

That's a great idea, Inge. It would make it especially rewarding (or, in some cases, *not* rewarding) for college graduates to leave with the monies they earned while in college and/or were given by their family as a grad gift.

Pescado, sweetheart, can I make a request please? Can you do a version of no-20k-handout that instead of calculating a fair amount, actually lets the player decide an amount? I would still like it to deduct from the family funds of course, but it would make it more felxible for parents who want to completely overindulge one child (or for a "lodger" who should really leave with nothing)
I will consider how this could be implemented. The game really isn't too good about receiving arbitrary user input, though. The traditional way to handle funds distribution if you need better control is to use the old Money Order object or inventory-barter.

Forth it.
It's nice to see more Forth programmers getting involved with the Sims!
Heh. At least my typo was a real word. :-[

What about a slider thingamajig, like the one used when buying groceries or paying the gypsy? That way a sim moving out of the lot could have any amount in the range of nothing to all of the household funds. Perhaps whatever system the gypsy uses could be modified for this purpose. But since I'm not a modder, I'm pretty much blowing smoke out my butt. I've never even used the money order thing; I usually just stash expensive "gifts" in inventory for extra cash.
