Yellow Happiness
3/14/23: Updated for the Infants patch.
Ok, so happiness in real life is commonly associated with the color yellow. But in the Sims, the Happy emotion is green. Unlike Angry or Sad, which in-game are the colors they are commonly associated with, happiness doesn't quite match up.
Anyone who knows me knows I easily get annoyed over tiny details. And this is one of those cases. So I changed it.
What does the mod do: Swaps the colors of the Happy and Embarrassed emotions, so happiness will be yellow, which just feels right to me. I think Embarrassed also works quite well with green.
- Currently affects moodlets, portrait frames (for both humans and pets!) and Ghosts.
Issues: The fade when a Happy moodlets boosts another positive emotion (can be seen in the first picture) is still green. This is hardcoded and cannot be changed.
Required packs: The mod is base game-compatible.
Conflicts: As far as I know none, the only file that conflicts is roBurky - MeaningfulStories-TrueHappiness-MoodColor.package from roBurky's Meaningful Stories mod as it modifies the same resource - if you want to use both my mod and their mod you need to remove this file.
Installation instructions: Put the .package file into your Mods folder.

Functional well by Ximera
The well has all the functions of a water collector. It also collects water and breaks in the same way, it can be improved. Unfortunately, it is impossible to collect water from it as from open water. This function is only for fishing signs, and unfortunately it is not suitable for a well.
