Automated Baby Controller
Karen:
The new version seems to work a little better. The adults still bring bottle after bottle of regular milk to the toddler, but at least they are now able to break out of the loop sometimes, for things like a diaper change or to put the toddler to bed.
Karen:
After a few more days playing with this version, I have to say I don't think it solves the problem. Every house I've played with toddlers seems to be affected by this problem. Even if I get one adult or elder in gold asp level, if there are other adults around who are not in gold asp level, they will continue to deluge the toddler with regular bottles, completely ignoring the toddler's other needs.
Much as I love the baby controller (I've used it since the very first version), I'm about at the point of pulling it out of my game and trying Twojeffs' baby/toddler hacks instead. This is really getting annoying.
Nec:
I have noticed that often things don't work correctly running on triple speed - which you are doing, according to your screenshot. I have no problems with the smartmilk. I have had the same smartmilk dispensers in some families for 3 generations. They smartmilk them until I stop recharging, then they will feed them a bottle when they get hungry, but I generally tell them to get a bottle if a toddler's hunger is down, and they are just finishing using the potty, got a bath, or some other convenient time. I did experience this once, but it was quite a few months ago, and I haven't seen it since. Perhaps it is because the toddler is in aspiration failure. I try and fulfill at least one want immediately after they age so they aren't in the red. Then I Get them a big one after they have had the smartmilk, and they stay happy for the rest of toddlerhood, as long as I keep their aspiration up. Maybe fulfilling one of her big wants will help. :-\
Karen:
I almost always run at triple speed. It's never been a problem before.
The issue here is that the adults won't stop force-feeding regular milk long enough for me to fulfill any of the toddler's wants. Believe me, I understand how to keep toddlers happy, and ordinarily it's not difficult. It just seems that with this particular scenario, almost any action drops out of the queue. They won't skill because their fun and social is low. Surrounded by toys, they won't play with them (autonomously or otherwise) even if their fun is all the way in the red. They won't autonomously do *anything* except grab a bottle. The latest version makes it slightly more likely that an adult can intervene to change a diaper or put them to bed, but the underlying problem is still there.
I still think that this is related to the super-nuking of toddlers in the baby controller. When it is not possible to make smartmilk (because there are no adults who are in gold asp level or higher), the baby controller is apparently trying to super-nuke with regular milk.

Try new version. Some logic was completely rewritten and revised.
