Resort Changes - Testers wanted
So this started out as helping someone with making a resort run better and not require so much stuff.
Now I am fully vested into creating my first real mod that might not just be for personal use.
Also, a second mod that removes the NPC's throwing down beach towels anywhere. You will need ICARUS buyable beach towels installed if you want to have beach towels beyond just your own sim using them. Why did I make this well this way I can control how the beach towels are placed for a neater look (as the original call for help they were setting up in the parking lot lol) second not having beach towels they actually use the lounge chairs..this effects the whole world and not just the resort.
If anyone uses this and wants to provide feedback I would appreciate it. The reason I want testers is I plan on making a few flavors of this and I play a heavily modded game so I would like some feedback from different users with different to no mods installed using it. You do not need to have the resorts file to just use the No beach towels it is stand alone and I will release that one after a bit more testing (and I need in game pictures to with it)
This is a continuation of the post started in the help section and where I have come with it so far.
NOTE: THIS WILL CONFLICT WITH THE MORE VIPCHECK IN MOD. I have made it so in my testing mod it's at 100% an NPC will check into a VIP room. So when using this it will get a little heavy because more things will break and since I have upped the maintenance crew to be the most diligent workers my resort is always going.
Ok I have tested some new things - Please go download the newest one. I removed the old one. I also added a Text file that talks to the changes and how to best make it work. With this version you will need to remove the MoreVip Mod if you are using it because this will now conflict but I made the change in my own to have it be 100% VIP check in!

What this now does:
1. No bad reviews - unless the resort is dirty (as my resort started to fill up more I did have to place more trash cans. I started with one lol)
2. Requirements change - You should not need a pool or firewalk. I did not need a buffet - read text file
3. My stars went up as I played
4. Using Nraas>MC>Invite over with the VIP set at 100. I set up 6 rooms and all 6 were filled (1 for me and 5 others) plus my resort "tower" was full
5. No Beach Towel spawns (this is still my favorite)
6. I made the "thought bubbles" they get about the resort to show up every 30000 sim minutes so in my playthrough I didn't really see any.
This is experimental so use at your own risk.
Still want to test out.
1. I noticed it allows you to check in with a max of 7 sims...so in my testing now my VIP rooms were filling I had families checking in and I had to add beds. Great for my family campground. Not the best when using the blue prints lol
I do plan on testing out different flavors playing with that number.
2. Changing the cost of the mosquito spray. Even though I changed it in the resort file it still says 80 when you go to buy it. Need to see if I have to change this on the spray object itself to change this.
3. If possible change the amount of maintenance workers (increasing) still haven't had a chance to go back and look at this yet.
