Preview: Custom Autonomy Mod by SnootySims for Sims 4

The Custom Autonomy Mod is officially complete! 🎉

This release focuses on building a flexible, scalable system that gives players full control over Sim autonomy, not just a simple On/Off toggle.

With this mod, players can decide exactly what Sims are allowed to do autonomously using category-based autonomy with individual checkboxes for each type of action, including future subcategories. The goal is precision, customization, and fewer “why are you doing THAT?” moments.

🧠 Current Autonomy Categories

➜ Basic Need

Controls autonomy related to essential survival behaviors, allowing Sims to respond to needs in a more intentional and configurable way.

➜ Social

Currently implemented with casual chatting as the first supported interaction. This serves as the groundwork for expanding social autonomy into more detailed and contextual interactions in future updates.

➜ Fun

All entertainment activities are grouped together for now, including:

• Watching TV

• Reading

• Playing games

• Listening to music

In the next version, Fun will be broken down into detailed sub-categories, giving players even finer control over how Sims choose to have fun.

HOW TO USE THE CUSTOM AUTONOMY MOD

1. Click on any Sim you want to control.

2. In the interaction menu, look for “Custom Autonomy Mod.”

3. Select “Enable Custom Autonomy.”

4. Choose the category of actions you want the Sim to perform autonomously.

5. Repeat the process for other categories or Sims if desired.

Tips

• You can enable or disable autonomy per Sim, giving you precise control.

• Some categories may affect gameplay more strongly, test them to find your preferred balance.

• If autonomy seems too active or too limited, revisit the menu and adjust the selected categories.
