Energy Decay and BV

I remember in the lead-up to Seasons they mentioned monkeying with indoor vs. outdoor motive depletion.  Not running Seasons 'till I get a better graphics card so I can't tell, but has that been implemented and if so to what degree?

[J. M. Pescado]

No, and none at all.

That's discouraging, I was looking forward to the outdoor motive boost to balance the sudden need to actually put stuff inside. So you could have a family living on the lawn and getting rained on, but still happy just from being outdoors.

Temperature extremes affect how FBA works, which in turn causes erratic temperature coping behavior. You could view that as a kind of stimulus-response, if not a motive-behavior.

[J. M. Pescado]

Temperature does not directly alter FBA, but certain actions are programmed to alter their advertisements for better or worse depending on temperature effects.
