Title: Is there a way to protect occult sims in Sacred Household from turning human?
Post by: bloodypotter on 2025 July 23, 13:20:25
I've been playing with three households in Isla Paradiso, all of which I've made Sacred, and two of them contain mermaid sims. When I switched over to them after playing with my human household, the mermaids had tuned back into humans. I had to make them mermaid again with NRaaS Master Controller but I'd like to avoid doing that every time I switch to my mermaid households. So I'd like to ask, is there a way to protect occult sims from loosing their occult status and turning into humans?

Hmm. Can't say I've heard of that before. There isn't even a story progression event that changes occults back to normal, so obviously, protection from Story Progression does nothing. Do they lose their occult status immediately when you switch out or something?

I'm not sure to be honest. If I were to to guess, I'd say probably not. When I was still using EA Story Progression, random townies would get turned into mermaids and stay like that for a while, before turning back into humans. Not sure what the system behind that is but I feel like that's what happened with my sims as well.

If you're using AwesomeMod's story progression engine, you would see anything happen and have the option to be notified it. However, I didn't make a story progression event that specifically creates or destroys occults, so that's definitely not a thing. And the Sacred tag explicitly forbids a sim from being the target in any story progression event for EAxis or AM's engines, so unless you have another third party engine doing it, what you're seeing is NOT a story progression event. Without knowing what else you've got running and what options you picked, I couldn't really even begin to speculate what is going on. Keep a closer eye on YOUR specific sims see if there's anything which causes them to suddenly lose their occult status. It shouldn't be hard to do: AwesomeMod is heavily slanted towards "world play" and makes it really easy to take control of or monitor everything that is going on. You can literally track the movement of every character or control them on the fly to see what is happening.

Ok, thank you! Glad to hear it's not something to do with Awesome mod.
