Hello! This is my first week with the Sims and first post here of course ;) I am a professional game developer (semi-retired) but I specialize in world building and no practical experience in scripting or coding.
Can anyone point me toward a tutorial on how to have a Sim perform a specific animation when interacting with a new object. I am happy to use existing animations, I don't need to know how to create or add new animation, and I'm happy to use functionality of existing objects (but probably with different than default artwork).
Over the years I've learned to make due with existing assets to keep budgets down and stretch the usefulness of every piece of art and code created :D so I guess I'm looking for guidance on where to find out how to put these types of things together into one new object from different existing objects and behaviors.
Hopefully that is clear! I've tried searching but being new to the Sims Universe there's so much to sift through from so many versions of the game it's very hard to tell where to start without a little leaning on you veterans.
Thanks all!
