Functional Butterfly (& Firefly) Habitat + Caterpillar Incubator

I fell in love with these 4t2 conversions by @tvickiesims at first sight and just had to make functional versions.

When your sim manages to catch butterflies or fireflies, they can be moved from the jar to this habitat. Insects housed in the habitat will stay alive; if the habitat is outdoors, they will hibernate if the temperature drops below freezing.

Each habitat can house 3 batches of butterflies and 3 batches of fireflies, counted separately. You can make space for new batches by releasing the insects from the habitat.

The caterpillar incubator provides an alternate way to get butterflies. Stocking the incubator costs §18, after which you can watch the caterpillars evolve into adult butterflies over the following days.

Be cautious about leaving adult butterflies in the incubator, as they won't survive there forever. The butterflies can be either moved to a habitat or released into the wild.

If an incubator is outdoors and the temperature drops below freezing, the metamorphosis will stop progressing, unless it's already finished, in which case the adult butterflies will die.

Sims can view occupied incubators and habitats, autonomously too. Cats might find them interesting as well. About everything gives nature enthusiasm, and all interactions are available children up.

🦋 Download (SFS) (alternate)

The files are compressed. Requires Pets and Seasons. The incubator won't work if you don't have the habitat in your downloads as well.

The habitat is a global mod that includes overrides for the bug jar and will conflict with other mods that alter the same resources. I haven't found anything that conflicts but as always, run HCDU to be sure. These can be used alongside Vickie's original conversions.

Hey guys (especially @kevinvoncrastenburg 💛)!

I like using mods that make the game more unpredictable and challenging, so I decided to share a list of them with anyone who might be interested.

🔥 Fire/Security 🚨

More Dangerous Fires (fire spreads faster and destroys things more quickly)

Flammable Birthday Cake!

No Instant Firefighter & Cop

More Dangerous Burglars & Enhanced Car Alarms! (with an option with arsonist burglars, hell ya)

🤧 Sickness 🤧

Real Sickness (I use pioupiou's version)

Alternative to Real Sickness: Disease Mod (I’ve used this one too, but eventually returned to Real Sickness; choose one or the other)

Faster Disease Process

Frequent Disease Process

Grandmas Comfort Soup Mod (the soup no longer cures instantly; sims actually have to eat multiple servings to reduce disease severity)

Random Elder Death Longevity Sickness (It has not been officially published yet)

☠️ Chance of Death ☠️

Deadly Bee Swarms

Deadly Satellites (increases the chance of dying by satellite when cloud-gazing, rather than only on the first attempt)

Grim Reaper Wins More (the odds of winning against him are basically cut in half)
