Decor with a Purpose: Functional Beach Basket
Similar to my Functional Coat Racks, this item lets you change into and out of swimwear. Depending on the current weather, changing out of it will choose everyday or hot weather clothing. Also if you have Island Living and my Functional Sunblock mod or Kuttoe's Basic Burns you'll get an extra option to Apply Sunburn Protection.
This is an override to a Seasons object, giving it custom tuning. It shouldn't conflict with anything unless you have something else that happens to modify this object specifically, but please let me know if you have any problems with it.
Update 6/30/22:
- Renamed the files to better reflect the mod name
- Please delete your existing files and redownload one of the new zips because the renamed files won’t overwrite the old ones.
- Added a new interaction by request. Now if the weather is hot and a sim is wearing something other than swimwear or hot weather clothes they have the option to change into hot weather clothes.
- Added Polish translation from Mircul
- Added French translation from Vanessa Sims
- Added partial Spanish translations from Morzat
Past Updates:
Update 2/15/22:
- Added Russian translation from SER_KISYAN
- Added integration with Kuttoe's Basic Burns. If you have that mod installed you should see the interaction on this object as well (please remember that it's not compatible with my sunblock and that you need to choose one)
- Brand new search functionality! I'm slowly adding hidden tags to my objects so you can find them by searching for "Ilex" (that's an uppercase i at the beginning if you can't tell).
- Fixed an issue where all the strings were in Czech after my last update. Turns out the string tables bug out on me if I do things in a certain order. Lesson learned.
- Behind the scenes fix for my strings. You won't actually see a change in game, but the old way risked conflicting with my own mods as well as others.
- Added Czech translation from Mikaela_Lovett
- Added integration with my new Sunblock mod.
- Added custom thumbnails so you can tell at a glance where the object came from.
- Renamed some files to be more accurate. If you have an old version with "SwimChange" in the file name please delete it because the new version won't override it.
The new strings are in:
- English
- Czech (missing some newer strings)
- French
- Polish
- Russian
- Spanish (missing some newer strings)
I don't speak any languages nearly well enough to translate this myself so I welcome any translations that anyone can offer and will credit all translators.
Known issues
- Not exactly an issue since it's probably better from a time management perspective, but I can't get it to work with sims walking up to the objects. They'll change clothes wherever they currently are.
Future plans
- I would love to have a basegame compatible version of this but I can't find a good object for it. I'm open to suggestions.
Thank you!

About Me
---
- If you're an object creator and want to use any of my tuning you totally can. Just link people to my stuff to download it (rather than including it in your download) and send me a link to your work if you want me to share it.
- Don't upload my content anywhere without asking me. I may give permission to my translators to share my mods where they'll be more accessible to non-English speaking players.
I have a Patreon if you want to donate and support me, but none of my functionality mods are locked behind a paywall.
If you want to test my mods in early access, become a translator, or just join my little community you can join my Discord server. The server is also typically the best way to get in touch with me if you have a question or problem.
