- Made it so that hybrid occult Sims with occult types for which canes were disabled would properly have canes disabled for them.
- Made the code base compatible with C# 5.0 so that it could be edited and compiled with SharpDevelop or MonoDevelop 5.7 (allows compiling it on non-Windows platforms).
- Changed namespaces to avoid conflicts when referencing multiple DLLs of mine.
- Hid the interaction "TraitHarassWithCane" for Sims who were eligible to use that interaction. Now it can only be performed autonomously and not user-directed, as was the behavior without this mod for elder Sims.
- Changed the namespace for the tuning to allow configuration via NRaas' Retuner.
I've seen quite a few people on this site and other Sims 3 mod sites complain that EA didn't allow non-elder Sims to use the walking canes from Generations, so I decided to make this mod to address that.
Additionally, this mod fixes an issue where witches and werewolves couldn't use them, even as elder Sims.
Other occult Sims, like vampires and imaginary friends, were explicitly prohibited by EA from using canes, as they were from using backpacks from University Life, so I kept use for those occult Sims disabled by default as well as for other occult Sims that float or stumble around (e.g., mummies and zombies). Each occult type can have the use of canes enabled for it by using s3pe to edit the "Tuning" _XML resource in the mod's .package file, or by using NRaas' Retuner to change the settings under General > By Tunable XML > Sims3.Gameplay.Destrospean > CaneForYoungerLifeStagesAndOccults.

About Me
I am a 25 year old web developer who also likes to write code as a pastime.
I have severe ADHD and am terrible at explaining things, as my mind is all over the place while trying to do so, so please forgive me if I do not communicate necessary information in a coherent and comprehensible way.
Also, no, I do not look like the Sim in my profile picture.
