Mod The Sims - Sim Control Tools

First of all, I would like to point out that all of new interactions (except the Reject a Phone Call) are only available when Testing Cheats is enabled. But you don't need to click on the sim with Shift key (although I would like to do this, but didn't figure out how). This behavior can be turned off via tuning if you don't like it. Instructions are under the "Tuning the mod via S3PE" spoiler.

So, the list of functions:

Date/Group
Interactions from this category allow you to quickly create a group, add/remove sims from it or start/end a date. Sims who leave a date/group this way will be left with a neutral mood.
Interactions > Chores...
Interactions from this category allow you to get sim to cook a random meal, clean up, or fix broken things in the current lot as if they were your roommates (University Life EP is not required). Sims can use fridge, grill (only for NPCs on community lots), toy oven (only for childs), and food synthesizer from Into the Future EP.
Interactions > Social...
You probably know the "Convince To..." category of interactions that are available at bars and parties? Mod includes these interactions as well, they are almost always available and you don't need to convince sims.
Interactions > Banish Sim
You need to banish a sim from the lot, but there are no genies nearby? No problem, just ~~create a new one~~ use this option. It works the same way, teleporting the selected sim to a random community lot, doesn't spoil the relationship between the sims and doesn't require Showtime EP.
Interactions > Call Me/Get a Call From
Selected sim will call your active sim to chat about his/her wonderful (or not so) life.
If you use this function on the active sim - it will open a dialog to select the caller.
Interactions > Cancel All/Current Interaction(s)
It does exactly what the interaction name suggests.
Interactions > Cancel Posture
In addition to interactions, the mod can also cancel postures. For example, when the sim is sitting on a chair.
Interactions > Come to Me
Selected sim will go to your active sim, even if he/she is on the other side of town!
Interactions > Go Home (Return to Grave)
Allows you to send chosen sim to home or, if it is a ghost NPC, back to the grave.
Interactions > Invite to Stay Over
Selected sim will stay overnight at your home. If sim not there yet, he/she will go to your house immediately.
Interactions > Show Interactions Queue
Displays a list of sim's interactions as a notification.
Interactions > Stay Overnight
An analog of the "Invite to Stay Over" function, working in the reversed direction. When sim is in another residental lot, you can click on it and select the "Stay Overnight" function. In this way, that sim will stay overnight where he/she is.
Interactions > Teleport to Me
Mod will try to find the nearest safe place from active sim and teleport the selected sim there.
Motives > Freeze/Unfreeze motives
Freeze and unfreeze sims motive values when you need it. When you perform this interaction, you'll also get a pop-up asking whether you want to maximize the motives before freezing them.
Motives > Motives Adjustment
You can also tune the values of the most important motives. Of course, this interaction is only available when the sim's needs are not frozen.
Motives > Motives Info
This option calls the EA debug function that outputs the log with information about all selected sim's motives, including hidden ones. It is also present in NRaas DebugEnabler.
Reputation > Clear Reputation
Now you can forget about the "Clean Slate" lifetime reward, because this mod can do the same without having to mess around with happiness points...
Reputation > Choose Reputation
...And that's not all! Now you can also choose the type of reputation you want. In this case the relationship statistics will not be cleared.
Reputation > Open Biography
View and change sims' biographies without having to switch to them.
Attach Camera
Make the game camera follow any sim you want, as if you clicked the "View My Sim" button.
Open Inventory
Yep, it's another function that works similarly to DebugEnabler. It opens the inventory of the active and target sims, similar to how you view the inventory of a chest, bookcase, etc. Unfortunately, the game doesn't allow to take items from inactive sims one at a time, but you can always take everything or give your items.
Reject a Phone Call
Allows you to reject an incoming call by clicking on the sim instead of his/her phone.
Sim Info
An option similar to Motives Info, but displaying debugging information about the sim.
Soft Reset
Soft Reset uses the EA function to reset the sim as a game object. The reset option from DebugEnabler does the same. Resetting a sim via resetsim cheat or Master Controller is more drastic, and, for example, can break an active party. Resetting an object, on the other hand, will simply cancel all interactions and maybe move sim model slightly (although in some rare cases the sim may end up at home).
Update Sim Thumbnail
Selected sim's icons will be refreshed in the relationship panel, family tree, map, etc.

Hmm. Are you still reading this? Great, because I have a little bonus with a touch of nostalgia - this mod also brings back the good old console cheat MaxMotives, which completely restores motives of sims from active family and guests on your home lot.
