The mod lets you fine-tune autonomy for a single Sim, turning off annoying behaviour or autonomy for that Sim only.
Example: with this mod you can have 2 adult Sims with autonomy off and 2 children with full autonomy in the same household. You can also have one Sim with autonomous dancing disabled while leaving full autonomy to all the other Sims in the household.
The mod also allows turning off the umbrella, the phone use while routing and other annoying things.
The section in the motives autonomy called "Improve Autonomy" will help Sims better satisfy their own needs.
Routines
Routines can be set by clicking on the family board in Parenthood. The family board must be present on the lot for this choice to appear.
To begin, click on Enable Schedule. When the schedule is active, the following new options will appear:
Keep in mind that the cooking schedule will only show up if at least one Sim in the family has more than two cooking skill points.
Setting a schedule will make sure that the chosen Sim does the chosen task at the given time.
For instance, you can tell a Sim to cook at a certain time, and you can choose different times for breakfast, lunch, and dinner:
To guarantee that dinner is ready at the specified time, the Sim will begin the chosen action one hour before. This is true for all choices, not just the cooking schedule.
The same goes for the sleeping schedule: if needed, Sims will take care of their bladder and hygiene before bed, and at the given hour, the chosen Sim will be put to bed (the mod drains the Sim's energy to red ensure their autonomy).
Autonomous behaviour will not be pushed for a selected Sim.
In addition, the family board allows you to activate some Autonomy option for numerous Sims at once:
The optional "global files" let you turn on certain options for all of your Sims, like turning off emotional walks for all of them. You can then turn them on for just one Sim from the mod pie menu.
