Tear Tarnished Angel

 

The beginning.

This challenge takes place on an island or islands neighborhood, so create a new one using empty neighborhoods tamplates and mods like antiredundancy and no townie regen.

Create as many as 8 sims in up to 4 households. Randomize everything.

Roll a d20 and a d10 (This maxes the amount of money each household starts with at 30,000 but can be as low as 2,000.) You can then use mortgage bushes for the rest of the cash.

I play my households for one season and then switch to another one, starting from founders cottage. This way it’s easier to remember when I should stop, pay taxes, etc.

Restrictions.

- no electronics, like tv’s, stereos, computers, alarms, etc. Only cheapest stoves and fridges are allowed. Your Sims can have a phone.

- no running water, so this means no showers & sinks.

- no cars, services or delivery services.

- no hobby and community lots.

- No fertilising gardening plots. The land is wild and has never been tilled before, and it will take a while before it can yield good crops.

- no townies. So this means that future spouses must be found on University, Vacations or among the settlers/unlocked townies.

Unlocking neighborhood add-ons.

Running water - at least one sim or two sims must have 6 mechanical points and 3 logic points. 10.000 $ must be paid from town funds. On every occupied lot must be placed at least one water collector. + 1 townie

Unlocks cheap toilets, sinks, showers, etc.

Basic electricity system - at least one or two sims must have 10 mechanical points & 6 logic points. 20.000 $ must be paid from town funds. On every occupied lot must be placed windmill. + 1 new townie.

Unlocks simple & cheap stereos, lamps, phones, cash registors, etc.

Basic airport - unlocked with basic electricity system. A small airline decided to take a risk and land on the island. They need a clean land and lots of fruit punch, so 50.000 $ must be paid from town funds.  + 2 new townie.

Unlocks non wood/stone wallpapers, furnitures, pets, etc.

Advanced electricity system & sewerage - available with basic airport. 50.000 $ must be paid from town funds for plans and skilled construction crew that will do all the dirty work. + 3 new townies.

Unlocks tv’s, computers, fancy lightning, stereos, toilets, showers, etc.

University - available with basic airport unlocked and every sim who wants to go on University must pay 10.000 $ from family funds.

Because this university is not owned by the town, you are allowed to create as many Young Adults, as you want/need.

Sims can build their own campus - 250.000$ must be substracted from town funds. With its built,  University is free.

Downtown - 500.000$ - big island with lots of space for future lots (15 or more). Unlocks 15 townies.

Shopping district - 250.000$ small island or islands, with less than 10 lots. Unlocks 10 townies.

Community lots - like parks, playgrounds, bars, etc. can be build by Sims with basic electricity system unlocked. Lot value must be substracted from town funds if it is an unowned community lot. The mayor should buy the lot and then donate it back to the public (I have this donate lot mod for that purpose). Otherwise have a playable Sim purchase a community lot and run a business on it.

Vacations - unlocked with basic airport.

Clothes - basic clothing is unlocked with silver badge in Sewing (so its rather important to start working on this skill as soon as possible or your kids will be dressed in something game chooses ;) ).

Careers.

In most careers level 6 is the highest, before University is unlocked. I recommend using Cyjon’s Job Stopinator.

Some careers need special buildings to be built for certain amount of Simoleons. It can be either hood decoration or community lot. See list below for more details.

Taxes.

At the beginning households pay as much as they can, so neighborhood add ons can be unlocked. I don’t care if it is 500$ or 5.000$ per season. With basic airport build this thing is replaced with Nepheris’ rules:

Households are divided into tiers based on their total funds (check from neighbourhood screen):
Upper Class (net worth $100,000+)
Middle Class (net worth $50,000-$99,000)
Lower Class (net worth $25,000-$49,000)
Poverty (net worth below $25,000)

Each tier earns the city tax per season based on the number of sims in that household:
Upper Class: 1.000$/Sim
Middle Class: 500$/Sim
Lower Class: 250$/Sim
Poverty: 100$/Sim

Sim Multiplier.

The SM is the number that you multiply your number of playable Sims by in order to get the city’s population. Servos count as playable Sims. Pets do not.

+1 for your first community lot

+1 when you reach a total of 5 community lots

+1 for every additional 5 community lots

+5 for your Business District

+5 for your Downtown District

+5 for your University

 

 

Leto made some shifts and I was inspired to copy over my Onion recolors for it!

 

 

You can see the four recolors on the toddlers. 

 

 

All done in the following colors:

Back in the Indrik Household. From Poverty (0 Simoleans) challenge. 
Less money from all sources including work.
( 29 Pictures Behind the Cut! )

A new hard legacy again :D
and Shhhh I stick to this one!

I am using all of the same difficulty mods and less money mods as before.

 

 

I have Defaulted and Geneticized Polygonbeach's Mouseyblue Leftover 26 recolors. 

 

Black colors are Genetized at Lvl 1 (Like Brown and Dark Blue)

 

Purple/Pink/Yellow are Genetized at Lvl 3 (Less strength than Green/Grey/Lt Blue.)
