History Challenge Companion Mod (HCCM) 1.1 Pronoun Update (WITH TRANSLATIONS)
🕑 Added 2022-04-28 09:32:56 +0000 UTC1.1 - Updated to support custom pronouns.
Also updated a confusing cosmetic error which notified the player of The Great Sim Frontier being era 6 rather than era 5 (resulting in all eras afterwards being 1 ahead of what they should have been).
A huge thank you to Snowie for allowing me to make this mod!

------------------------------------------------------
This mod is designed for History Challenge players, the main objective of this mod is to prevent the need for players to constantly keep having to pull up the google doc and allow for a more challenging gameplay experience.
This mod keeps track of every single generation up to the 11th generation (the final era, Future Tech) and sims inherit their respective generation trait on birth. You can find this trait in the sim info panel.
It also keeps track of the era, you can also find this trait in the trait panel.
Prevents sims from having access to interactions/jobs that are not unlocked yet in that era.
Jobs unlock as the eras progress
Interactions unlock as you progress
Eras progress upon the birth of the first child in the new generation
Every sim in the household will get the next era's trait and the unlocked content that comes with it (sims will keep their own generation trait).
If an interaction hasn't unlocked yet, it will be greyed out with a tooltip telling you it isn't available during that era
Aging up via the birthday cake is not possible unless it is the sims actual birthday. (Not available on toddlers)
You will get a notification on each era progression of what has been unlocked and the aspirations you can now use
Upon starting the challenge (either from the default Stone Age or cheating a different era), you will be prompted to choose your starting funds.
Either §5000 (Historian) or §8000 (Casual).Cheats are included, simply navigate to the piemenu on the mailbox. You have the option of starting from a specific era of your choose / the option to add any era trait (multiple can be added, but be aware this may cause issues with interaction/job restriction).
You can end the history challenge (and wipe all traits from the household) by clicking on the mailbox and choosing ‘End History Challenge’.
Due to the nature of this mod, there are a lot of overrides. I have mostly packaged them separately, and you should be able to tell what the override is by the name of the package file.
If you wanted to remove the career overrides or the birthday cake override, you are safe to do that without breaking the mod.

I second this!! I'm playing the history challenge, but I'm doing it in a weird way where there could be 4 or more generations each era. (Prehistoric, I'm doing stone age, bronze age and iron age before I move on etc.) I'd love to be able to choose when era progressing happens. :)

I'm playing in a regency era, is there a way to lock the mod so that it never progresses? I really want all my sims to be able to get careers, just not more modern ones

If you want to play normally, I would suggest removing it since it contains a lot of overrides that you wouldn't want in your normal gameplay :)

This is so amazing! I'm just about to start in the Regency era! I did have a quick question. I have a modern save file that I sometimes play as well. When you add the mod to your mods folder, does it work across all your save files? Or can I turn it on in the historical save file and turn it off in the modern save file without losing my progress in the historical file? Hopefully that makes sense!
