Modding Diary - Pleading Forgiveness + Adopting Foster Baby

Hi guys! hope you all are doing well!☺️

This week I worked on the "Plead For Forgiveness" interaction that parents can use after revealing their identity to the child they abandoned.

It is more likely to fail if you have a low friendship with the child, when the interaction fails you will loose friendship points

But if you try again eventually they will forgive you, and they are more likely to forgive you if you have high friendship with them

The other thing I did is that when giving a player abandoned baby to CPS you will get a cps file. . The case file is added because I needed to save the baby's information somewhere once they are handed to CPS, otherwise the game will loose track of who you are suppose to foster

And if you sign up to foster them you will use the file to call cps for update instead waiting for their call

And you will also use the file to apply to foster them

The last thing i did is you will now be able to apply to adopt the foster baby once they aged up to an infant or toddler

The court is more likely to approve your adoption application if you have a good relationship with the child and if your house has sufficient funds (over 5k), otherwise they will likely reject you

That is all I have for this week!

I hope you all have a good weekend! ☺️

I love this! I do wonder if it would be possible to add a player choice or just a random chance on forgiveness after the second request, so that the abandoned child might not agree to forgive? Or maybe they might forgive but say they don't want a relationship?
