Living off of the land challenge.
Hi everyone! this is my first challenge. If something in the challenge is unclear to you, please comment so I can help you out
Backstory:
After years of living in the chaotic Simcity, you and your family have decided to move away and start your lives anew in a small house, living peacefully and eating foods you grow or catch from the land.
Setup:
-Make 4 sims in CAS - A married couple, and two children.
-Buy the second smallest lot (2x2)
-Build a small lake on the lot (make sure it's big enough to fish in)
Rules:
-The only food your Sims can eat are produce they grow from gardens and trees, or fish they catch from the lake (In extreme situations, such as the produce isn't ready to harvest, or your pond is frozen and your Sims are dying of starvation, they can have an instant meal)
-No using any cheats (you may use kaching two times, but you don't get any score points for using the cheat)
-The only appliances your Sims are allowed are:
A fridge (The wornable fridge)
A grill (The grillinator "BigBbq" or Brand Name MetalKettle)
A juicer
-Your Sims cannot have jobs. They can only get their income by selling paintings or fishes
-No electronics such as phones, TVs, fire alarms, etc.
-No greenhouses! your garden has to be outside exposed to the weather.
-No using bought fertilizer. You have to buy the Composting Apparatus and recycle items to get your fertilizer
-No using sprinklers. Your Sims have to water the plants themselves
-You can use the Lovely Ladybug Loft to help with pests
-No using the gardener
-No talking to plants to heal them
Goal of the challenge
-To get 1,000 points before the Sims' lifetime is up
Scoring:
+5 for each produce grown (minus bland produce)
+10 for each mouthwatering produce grown
+2 for each fish caught
+2 for each painting or fish sold
+5 for each master piece painting sold ( sells for 350 simoleons and up)
+10 for each gardening talent badge earned
+50 for every 1,000 simoleons earned
+100 if turned into a plantsim
+3 for every A+ report card
-5 for each bland produce (each plant, not each individual piece of produce)
-5 for every sickly plant/tree
-2 for every boot fished
-5 for starving Sim (hunger desperation)
-100 if a Sim dies from a cause other than old age
Good luck everyone! :D
