Hacks needed desperately
hedgekat:
A few of the newer behaviors from Pets/SEasons are driving me nuts. (alright, I probably already was but it's getting worse)
Kids dancing on adults feet. Once in a while would be okay but not constantly anytime I don't have everyone totally occupied with something else.
Water balloon fights. On a hot summer day, maybe, but in a thunderstorm or the middle of winter? Or the middle of the night if they are still awake. Again, once in a while in a sensible situation would be fine but not whenever I haven't directed them to do something else.
Bedmaking. ARghhhhh. I have had three and four sims show up in the same room to make a bed. In a dorm they come back from class and immediately head for unmade beds. In a home they do the same coming home from work. It doesn't matter whose beds (as long as they are double beds. They rarely bother with singles.) Can the call radius of the unmade beds be reduced?
So. Has anyone anywhere already made hacks for these situations? I haven't found them anywhere I have checked. If no one already has made them could I beg one of the wonderful modders here to make them?

There are fixes for all of these things, some of them on this very site. Have you tried actually looking through the forums to find them?

EP3 required:no autonomous dancing on toes
no autonomous water balloon fight
Dunno about the bedmaking one. My sims never make their beds anyway as I use Macrotastics. You could try that, I suppose. :)
Marhis:
Another alternative for dancing on toes (that I use myself) is by monique @ MTS2. Sims will do it autonomously anyway, but only if their fun is below 50%.
Bedmaking can be easily stopped with abortbedmaking. Sims will go make beds anyway, but you can cancel the action like most other autonomous actions.
hedgekat:
Thanks for the links. That will solve two of my problems. And found a couple of mods for things I didn't mention.
I have had the abort bedmaking mod for a long time. And of course that stops it but they keep generating the action over and over until I let someone make the bed. They weren't so insistent about it before. Or maybe I notice it more since putting double beds in my dorms.
Notveryawesome: I did check all the sections of this forum that I thought had hacks without finding anything relevant. I already have nearly all of JM's, Crammyboy's and Twojeff's hacks in my game. This forum is always my first stop for any game problem I have. As for checking others, I stop by Insimenator and MTS2 regularly but with a very slow dialup connection I can only visit a small number of the many pages available at any one time. Much easier to ask for leads from others who may have already found what I am looking for.
Thought of another thing that has been bothering me. I already have Jm's nobuskers mod but that apparently only works on residential lots. To stop my uni students from doing it I have to put the piano on the roof whenever I am not specifically wanting someone to practice.
