Get drink from sink - cooling or not?
Inge:
Some say their sims cool from having a drink of water from the sink. I can't see any code that could cause them to do so, unlike on the wishing well, where I can. I ran a test having 4 hot sims, one of whom was made to drink about 6 glasses of water while the others were not allowed any. At the end of the 6 drinks, the sun had set, my drinking sim became cool, and so did the other 3. Can anyone swear sink drinking is cooling their sims down?
broo:
Didn't work for me either. At least not the way I wanted.
pioupiou:
I think it does cool the sims, but I need to pay more attention. I have done it (paying more attention) for the warm up option on the fireplace, and it does indeed warm up the sim (+15 in temp according to the lot debugger temperature infos). I will try to check that this evening and report back.
Inge:
Wouldn't the sim have warmed up anyway from being indoors? (assuming he got cold from being outside) In Seasons I noticed that when cold sims went indoors for any reason they soon warmed up, even without any particular warming device.
Actually I wanted to talk about fireplaces next anyway. Looking at fireplace globals, the BHAVs for the "Warm hands" interaction and test, they each test to see if Stack object is the Temperature Receptivity Controller, before trynig to run a CT on the controller (an ad tweaker for cold sims and a warmth modifier). But of course the fireplace isn't the temperature controller, so presumably those lines never run. Am I going mad or is EAxis?

I can. I was playtesting a challenge recently, with a sim on a house-less lot in the middle of summer, and learned 2 things: sleeping outdoors in a bed during the day will heat up sims (while passing out on the floor does not), and drinking from the sink will cool them. My sim spent two days in this manner: sleep until temperature rises from almost full to full red -- get up and get a drink or two, until it goes back down to almost full -- go back to bed .. the sink saved her life!
There was nothing else on the lot that could have cooled her down. Everything was outdoors under the sun, and the outdoor temperature did not change much during the day (I kept checking the temperature stats with the LotDebugger).
This is with NL+OfB+Seasons p2, and a lot of hacks (among them JPM's Warmth Fix).
