Big Interaction Update Beta

The big interaction update is currently in beta, this means you can play it early but there are still some bugs to work out. The new version includes mapping to almost every single interaction in the game. The Action seeds are removed and everything is a "pre action" which means the story should flow better and feel less rigid and be more in tuned with your Sims.

In the previous version, the mod worked by linking in-game interactions with “interaction descriptions” to guide the AI system. This mechanism, comprising both "pre-actions" and "actions," had its limitations leading to repetitive and sometimes inconsistent interactions.

All Interaction and Traits Mapped for all Expansions!

Thank you to @JazK and @ScottA who mapped out every single interaction in the game using a combination of GPT-4 and data pulled from the game files. Having every interaction mapped now is extremely immersive because almost every chat between Sims is hooked up to the AI. On top of this, they also mapped out every existing trait too. This mean every trait, like or dislike a Sim has is now properly recognized by the AI.

Brindleton Bay Completely Mapped!

Thank you @Ash for completely mapping out Brindleton Bay in the mod and contributing for the first time! Ash used GPT-4V(ision) to map out all the lot descriptions in Brindleton Bay. Checkout the thread in Discord if you want to contribute! 

Potential Issues

The AI can potentially go more off the rails now because the seeded actions are now removed in this version. The Sentient Sims AI is particularly more susceptible to the issue because its a little more "dumb" than ChatGPT at following instructions. I have fine tuned the model we are using and I want to tweak it to work better with this new version of the mod. For now, use "Retry" or the new Report Bug feature if Retry doesn't seem to be producing something that seems like a good output.

New "Report Bug" Button

A new "Report" button is implemented at the bottom of the interaction menu that you can anonymously report any interaction that isn't working right after Retrying multiple times.
