S.A.M. - Sim Activated Machine by Esmeralda


This is just a bit of fun inspired by the current monthly theme, Into The Future. Its design was mainly inspired by my currently playing 'Fallout: New Vegas' which I had sitting on my computer for years and never got around to until now, and the movie 'Robot and Frank' which we saw recently and loved. S.A.M. (Sim Activated Machine) is a little headbot who is sort of a cross between 'eyebot' ED-E from Fallout, and the head of Frank's robot: a sleek, plain, plastic futuristic kind of head rather than the ornate retro ED-E but with the similar idea of a robot who is just a floating 'head'.

This is a set of male and female sims, who are regular standard sims but are 'dressed' in a robot head and a null (invisible) body. So there is nothing 'modded' about them or any technical voodoo involved, they function like a normal sim, they're just little and cute. They come as nine separate sims as follows:

1. S.A.M. Silver, Male ; 2. S.A.M. Maroon, Female; 3. S.A.M. Green, male; 4. S.A.M. Black, Female; 5. S.A.M. Brown, Male; 6. S.A.M. Blue, Female; 7. S.A.M. White, Male; 8. S.A.M. Red, Female, and 9. S.A.M. Indigo, Male.

Teleport Any Sim by Scumbumbo



This is based on an idea I got in a recent forum post, and it seems to work fairly well. This is a statue object, which can be purchased for free from the Decorations/Miscellaneous, that has two teleport commands available from it.

The basic "Teleport Sim" command will bring a sim to the location of that statue. The Sim will be reset to cancel whatever they may be doing (or else they would ignore the teleport) and be instantly moved to the destination replacing the statue.

The "Summon" version of teleportation will bring a sim from another lot, or a household member who is off lot. The Sim will be spawned and given an appropriate "visitor" role so they don't just try to leave. If the Sim was a member of the household and off to work or school, they will simply get their work-day cancelled normally and be pulled out of the rabbit hole.
