Age Tooltips & Epitaphs
Hi! This mod adds age info to your sims' and pets' names and cause of death to their gravestones. There are a few versions, get the "inDaysTillNextAge" if you don't feel like tweaking BCONs to match this mod to your age span
When you hover over a sim, it will say - "Edward Green, 10 days to adult" for teens, or - "Edward Gray, 85 days old" for elders, or simply - "Edward Grown, 21" if you get the "inYears" version When you hover over a tombstone, it will say - "Here Lies Edward Growl, Died of Hunger", or - "Here Lies Edward Groom, Dearly Beloved" if you decide on a random epitaph, or - "Here Lies Edwardina Grim, Died in Childbirth", which is also something you can pick
The mod is triggered by aging and dying. When you first install it, you want to buy the black cube with white plaque for §0 in Misc/Misc section and set up the neighborhood so you don't have to wait for everyone's tooltips to update naturally
Age The age part only affects playable sims and pets, skipping townies, NPCs, bigfoot, robots, witches and zombies. Some of these restrictions are BCON configurable
Epitaphs Death doesn't discriminate: townies and servos may also get epitaphs if you let them. This part is the same in all versions. How it works. When a sim dies, you see a pop-up asking you if you would like to add a caption to their gravestone. If you say yes, the choice is between their true death type, custom death type like "killed in a fight", or random epitaph like "rest in peace"
My fave side feature is to customize the number on elder's age bar where it says "Is X days old" on UI panel regardless of aging mod
Please see the AgeTooltips.txt for full description, if you decide to get one of the "inYears" versions, because those are sensitive to your age span arrangement, and you may need some tips on how to edit. There's also a bit for modders on how to call tooltip update from your own code
Get AgeTooltips from Folder Requires Apartment Life or Mansion & Garden If you have files from testing, please remove them
If you use my YA maternity mods, get updated Uni_aging here, if haven't already. If you use Meduza's versions of Uni_aging, there are updated files in the folder. If you use BO-SlowAging or Midge's version, there are compatibility patches in the folder as well
