317 Comments / replies (Who?) - 9 Feedback Posts, 9 Thanks Posts
Updated 06-21-2018 --- Fixed notification announcements and updated the animation to be more suitable.

Updated Dec 13, 2017 - Version 7b now restores the feature of Sims being able to autonomously evolve all plants.

Updated Dec 9, 2017 - The updated mod doesn't do everything the old mod used to do, but it should suffice for now at least! I wasn't even seriously considering touching this mod at all with all the plant objects that would need changes until I noticed in the comments that someone posted that the game was supposed to allow all plants to be evolved by default now but it wasn't working properly.
  • Fixes the evolve plant action so that all available plants on a lot are evolved. The game was updated at one point to supposedly allow all plants to be evolved in this manner, but they were missing some crucial bits of XML code required to make it work past a single plant.
  • Fixes the bug which prevented plants being evolved past the first one as counting towards level 2 of the nature aspiration.
  • Since they added the "continuation" XML to the plant objects, only three XML files needed to be adjusted to make these fixes, making the mod a LOT easier to update in the future (before every single plant object needed to be edited with every game patch, a time-consuming and error prone task).
  • This doesn't include the old mod features of autonomous plant evolution, or the inclusion of evolution occuring during the "tend garden" cycle.
  • Still fully compatible with Faster Gardening (which has also been updated).
  • All outdated versions of the mod have been removed and are no longer supported.

Description

This mod for The Sims 4 will cause the Evolve Plant action to work like weeding and watering, the sim will automatically move from plant to plant evolving each plant which is eligible. In addition, the Evolve Plant action has been added to the Tend Garden cycle.

This mod is fully compatible with the most recent version of the Faster Gardening mod.

Installation Instructions

For version 7 there is only one flavor of the mod, no separate packages are required anymore for different game packs. Simply pop the package in your mods folder and EAxis's mistakes go bye-bye.

The mod was written for TS4 version 1.44.77.1020 (June 19, 2018) and is incompatible with earlier versions.

This mod may cause conflicts with other mods which change gardening actions or plant objects. Due to the wide variety of mods and sources for them, it is unlikely I will be able to help you with such a conflict.

I guess I never did state the results of my looking at it. No changes are needed to the XML since June of last year, and it tests out working fine in game.

Can confirm, still works albeit *very* slowly, especially if you have lots of plants.

I have used the mod before the latest April patches, and I noticed that first, my gardening skill level 10 sim was able to evolve all plants in his garden by clicking on the Evolve option only once. I had to delete that save and start over, so the same sim with gardening skill in development (level 1) had to evolve each plant individually. I am guessing this is the intended behavior, is this right?
Also, please, is it compatible with the April 2019 patches?
THANK YOU!

With the mod a level 1 gardening should still evolve all plants, I'll have to test that - I think my test Sim has gardening of level 6 or so.

Nothing changed with evolving so it should be compatible, but you may have found a bug if level 1 gardening Sims can't evolve all. I will look into that, not sure when this weekend is pretty busy for me.

Thank you so much for your quick reply and for confirming the mod should work. I will test with a sim that has gardening skill level of about 6 or 7 and will report back. I truly appreciate whenever you get the will and time to look into the mod behavior, too.

I have been playing with the mod. I have no other gardening mods in, just the Evolve all plants. My sim was progressing from level 6 until he maxed the skill. At level 9 I had no plants ready to be evolved, so I have to wait until there are grown plants to check what happens in level 10.
Between levels 6 and 9, my sim was evolving each plant individually, but autonomously. That is, I clicked on one plant ready to be evolved, and the sim worked on that plant, then, without my clicking on any other plant ready, he went on plant by plant, evolving all that were ready.

Yup, that is how it should work. I haven't had a chance to look at whether it is messed up at certain skill levels yet, but that is the correct behavior with the mod installed.

I am glad that everything is fine. I will have the chance to check with another beginner gardener soon, and will pay attention to how things work.
Truly appreciate your attention and fast replies, THANK YOU!!!

I can't run my gardener sims without this. Still works with the 1.50 Island Living Update.
It's so ridiculous that a modder had to make Evolve All happen when the actual team were too effing lazy (and/or useless) to figure it out on their own.
This may be a tall ask, but I would LOVE gardening to be about 75% less profitable. Is anyone patient enough to make this happen?

I love this mod. Together with the Faster Gardening mod it has really made my sims gardening a lot easier.
One thing is still killing me though. Fertilizing! And here is the suggestion for you. Would it be possible for you to make a similar mod for fertilizing? "Fertilize All"?
