Sims who are caught faking an illness will lose job performance and may even be demoted or fired. If the Sim calling in sick is not actually ill, its success is randomly determined based on job performance. The interaction is only available one hour before the carpool arrives until one hour after the job's start time.
Sims who are employed can Call In Sick with their workplace on a phone, and they will be allowed to miss work without fear of being fired. Children are taken away by a Social Worker before they get a chance to die and Toddlers and Babies cannot get ill. A tombstone above the Sim's head indicates the Sim is near death from illness. If certain illnesses are not cured within ten days, the Sim will die of their illness.
The Sims 2 features multiple kinds of illnesses, each with its own symptoms and contagiousness. Subsequently, the Sim's breakdown will be reported in the tabloid. If a famous Sim has repeated failures in Studio Town the Sim will enter a catatonic state and lose Comfort, Fun, Bladder and potentially star power. Nervous Breakdowns are introduced in Superstar.
The sims 4 nude mod with diseases code#
Investigations have shown that there is no reference to disease in any of the files that come with Unleashed (see this thread at Simblesse Oblige), and that code which claims to cure the disease refers to a disease controller file which was included in Vacation, which actually contains code for Poopy Pants.
What it is, and whether it exists at all, remains subject to dispute. It does not appear to exist as a separate entity, but may have been the result of a bug involving existing illnesses. It could reportedly affect both humans and pets, and reported symptoms in pets include listlessness and an inability to maintain the Hunger motive. Reported symptoms are those of the Guinea Pig Disease, but it does not require the presence of a guinea pig. Its existence was inferred, but never officially acknowledged or confirmed, and reports of it spread around the Sims community. Reportedly introduced in Unleashed, this was dubbed the "Mystery Illness" because its exact nature and origin was unknown. The disease is not deadly, and will go away on its own after a period of time. Montezuma's Revenge cannot kill a Sim, but will cause great discomfort to the ill Sim as the Bladder motive will rapidly decline, making them spend plenty of time in the bathroom. It's a form of food poisoning, and Sims can get it from eating at buffet tables when their Hygiene is low. Montezuma's Revenge, also known as " Poopy Pants" (the name used by Maxis in the code), is a disease introduced in Vacation. Additionally drinking a blue potion will restore three random motives which, while not directly curing the disease, can help them to recover from it.
