Get drink from sink - cooling or not?
Inge:
Well, is it the warmth fix that fixes the sinks, in that case?
ZiggyDoodle:
It's cooled them down in my game, Inge. Last night I had a Sim on the treadmill for a bit; he had heated up and I sent him to the kitchen sink for a drink. His temp dropped. The treadmill was indoors and it is winter at that lot.
Inge:
Well I will next try mine indoors. But why doesn't a drink outdoors help? And besides there is no &*^$ing code on the sink or the drinking cup to make temperature changes lol! Surely that controller thingy doesn't go round all the sims trying to catch one drinking?
pioupiou:
For the moment I can only reply concerning the fireplace :
sims do cool down while inside, or warm up if cold, their temperature tends to zero indoor, but I purposely tested the fireplace.
I used the lot debugger (temperature infos) : my sim reported a temp of say (I'm making up^the numbers right now, but you'll get the idea) 15 with a temp delta of -6 (being indoor, the temp tries to go back to zero). I have the sim warm up by the fire place and immediatly upon completion check the temperature again : it then says 30 with a temp delta of -6 (the highest I've ever seen).
I've done that acouple of time, every time the fireplace gave a +15 boost in temperature.
I will try to do the same with a sink and report back.
ETA : I only tested this indoor, but I don't see why it would be different outdoor : the sink gives -20 in temperature to my sim. She was indoor and her temp was 0, she drank (is that right, I don't remember clearly the irregular verbs...) and her temp was -20. I had her take another glass of water. By the time she was almost finished drinking, her temp has changed to -8, then when the action was over, she had a temp of -28. I hope this helps you.
Inge:
Well I took out hacks (mine and other people's), and tried again, and this time I did see a drink reduce the temperature. But that's weird I know what all the hacks are meant to do and not one of them is meant to be a sink hack or anything to do with drinking. I didn't even patch the temperature controller. I had a spongebathing hack ages ago but that's long gone. It happens just as the cup vanishes from the sim's hand.
