I need some beta tester to test this pets version... can pets be teleported in, and can family pets be turned into strays?
I do not have Pets installed yet so I can't test this myself.
If the teleport and make stray options work I'll add a pet adopt function in it as well.
(pulled!)

It still needs some work. Here's what I found:
- The Make Me a Stray menu option shows up for Sims but not for pets
- The Summon.... menus do not show any pets that are in those families, although they list all the Sims.
- The object (shrub) itself is not clickable for pets, even if you use the "boolprop controlpets on" cheat to make the pet selectable. So even if I wanted to use Make Me a Stray, there's no way to do it.
I hope you keep working on this; I'm impressed that you're even trying to do it without the EP.

Okay, thanks. That's helpful feedback. I think I know how to fix the first two issues, as for the third--I'll have to steal^H^H^H^H^Hborrow some code from someone else  |

For the 3rd... I'm not sure if it will work but... there is a Sim Selectable? (probably in Global if not PersonGlobals) test or something like that. I imagine that... if a user actually makes a sim/baby/pet selectable, then this test will most likely return true. Just a guess. Perhaps that will help? Unless the selectability thing is much more complicated when it comes to pets.

So even if I wanted to use Make Me a Stray, there's no way to do it. It isn't standard to push actions on pets with them selected. Normally, you push actions on pets indirectly through a human sim. So, what you need is something like "Make $Object a Stray", and supply the pointer to the pet to the MakeActionString. |

Yea, you'd have to do the 'Make a Stray' indirectly through a sim. If you want to look at an example of how to do that, take a look at the Interaction - Gender Preference bhavs in the ACR main controller package.

I think that's how I did it for having babies adopted. Can't really remember now

Does Christianlov's one have a "make stray" option?
That's what I really want at the moment. My hood needs some shabby looking and unkept strays and I have a cat I want to get rid of kindly.

People who dump unwanted pets should burn in hell. Take them to the pound.

IRL definitely, but I'd like the option to make my own strays in the game. They should be kind of scruffy and scraggly looking but in my neighborhood I had a Himalayan stray running around.  |

Yeah, my strays are pretty upscale looking too. But Sims live in nice 'hoods, so they should have nice strays, lol!

Considering that I've created everything else in my neigbourhood from scratch, I don't feel like I can settle for maxis strays either, although I prefer to think of them as townie pets.
I also want to make all members of the two Maxis families that came with OMGpetz into townies, but I'm not going to try that until I can townify their pets as well.

The Maxis default animals aren't so bad, though. They're not like townies at all.

Grant me the serenity to accept the things I cannot change, the courage to change the things I cannot accept, and the wisdom to hide the bodies of those I had to kill because they pissed me off.

How could they go wrong?  Even in programming their behaviour they must have had an easy time: sim pets have more justification for doing aimless tasks than any AI controlled character. |

Not to mention, no one was sufficiently stoned on caffeine to create ugly faces for them...

Heh. Open BodyShop. Take a look at some face templates. Now tell me, why should they have gone to the extent of finding new snouts for their sim-bulldogs? Sure, they look better on four-leggers, but whoever created template 18 evidently had a molossoid in mind. |
