Simple Laundry Tweaks - Hard Mode
Screenshot 2026-05-06 110449.png - width=894 height=700
With the Simple Laundry mod, hampers fill up with laundry every in game hour (at 50 it looks visually full, and reaches maximum dirty at 300). The original rate of accumulation is as follows.
- Every hour +1 gets added to the hamper (+3 if the clothes are wet).
- An additional +1 is added for every 3rd sim.
- Another +1 is added if the average neat personality points of the household is less than 4.
With the Change Outfit Leave Clothing Pile addon;
- Sloppy sims leave a clothing pile 40% of the time.
- Normal sims leave a clothing pile 15% of the time.
- Neat sims never leave a clothing pile.
- With the 100% flavour sims will drop clothes 100% of the time if no hamper is present on the lot.
Changes:
The changes I have made are mostly to make laundry accumulation more equitable. In real life neat people change their clothes just as often if not more so than someone with lower cleanliness standards. So the logic I have used for laundry accumulation is based on the idea that neat sims place their laundry in the hamper and sloppy sims are more likely to leave their laundry on the floor instead.
So in addition to the base rate of +1 per hour;
-Every neat sim adds an additional +3 to the hamper.
-Every average sim adds an additional +2 to the hamper.
-Every sloppy sim adds an additional +1 to the hamper.
-Sloppy sims drop clothes 50% of the time.
-Average sims drop clothes 25% of the time.
-Neat sims drop clothes 0% of the time.
-With no hamper clothes drop 100% of the time regardless of personality.
And because laundry now accumulates a lot faster, I have halved autonomy so that sims to prevent laundry obsession.
Like with almost all my mods, these values can be easily adjusted through the BCONs to your personal taste.
Requirements:
As this mod is a flavour addon, the original Simple Laundry mod by Lamare is required as well as the Change Outfit Leave Clothing Pile addon. Make sure my mod loads after both the main mod and the Change Outfit Leave Clothing Pile addon.
Conflicts:
Laundry Addon for Laundry Addons by TeaAddict - Make sure my mod loads last.
Always run HCDU+ before adding new mods to your game.
