Salsa Interaction v1
Thank you so much for waiting. Sims are finally ready to Salsa!
Find the interaction in the Couple Dance pie menu or a Stereo. Selecting via pie menu will have sims dancing on the spot. Via stereo and wall speakers, sims will first ask their chosen partner for a dance and if granted, will route to the boombox to dance.
Salsa requires 2x3 tiles. There'll be small clipping with move 21 when dancers switch positions because this move requires 2x4, but it's a small price to pay to fit the interaction in decent sized living rooms.
At the end of a dance, sims can give each other feedback on how the dance went. This is a short term interaction that will disappear once used.
Some feedback are really strange lol.
Log v1:
Sims dance a maximum of 60 sim minutes or earlier if the interaction is cancelled.
Sims may not dance if they're feeling miserable.
Sims can dance with friends/acquaintances. This is not a romantic interaction.
Sims have a low chance to get custom buffs: flirty, confident, playful and embarrassed.
Sims can 'Enthuse about Salsa' only if they've danced it and 'Exchange dance feedback' only after a dance.
Increases friendship and dance skill gain.
This is not the end as I steadily update more features and more dance moves. Let me know your thoughts.
Enjoy!
Installation
Remove my Salsa animation pack if you have it. The animations will conflict.
Put this package and XML injector in your mods folder.

I hope this gets to you. But I love your couple dance mod, it’s literally a game changer. But is there gonna be a way to make it not so autonomous. My sims just get up out the blue and start dancing.
Nice work here! The fix to the side switch was nice and clean. Can't wait for more moves in this mod!
not at all, thank you is more befitting! :)
This is great, thank you so much! Could we have the option to start the other couple dances from the stereo as well? I ask because I use the Couple Dance Club Activity mod and unfortunately whenever I start the group gathering, when the sims arrive they don't enter the lot/building, they just start dancing outside instead. Even though I've made a big ballroom with lots of space for them to dance in, lol. If they could autonomously decide to start the couple dances near or next to the stereo instead, that would be great! At least they'll enter the ballroom then. XD
Great idea! Definitely adding to my to-do! Thank you! :D
It's here!! I'm gonna put this in now!!! Can't wait. Nice work :)
