Hey there beautiful people, I have a new update for you! This update is not that big but I did fix a few bugs and add some new aspirations that I think give gameplay a bit more direction. I will hopefully get another update out soon with an additional cult (thinking of naming it Siminati) that you can start/join. Until then, I hope you enjoy this update!
******
The Cult Mod allows you to start and run your own cult called "Plumbology" (like plumbob and scientology mashed together). "Plumbology" is built on the idea that sims are living in a simulation and must please "The Player" a.k.a. you, in order to be free. There are 3 member levels/ranks right now (named after crystals since plumbobs are diamonds).
How To Start A Cult
To start a cult, simply click on your active sim and select "Start Plumbology Cult" in the cult mod menu or "Set as Cult Leader" in the settings menu (You can make a npc or additional sim a leader or any cult member rank this way).
Then they will receive the "Plumbology Cult Leader" gameplay trait and will now have a cult menu pop up when you click on other sims.
You can now "Talk About Plumbology", "Recite Plumbology Creed", and/or "Invite To Join Plumbology".
If you are successful in getting a sim to join the cult you will get a happy moodlet/buff and so will the other sim. The other sim will also gain the "Plumbology Recruit" gameplay trait.
If the other sim does not want to join (likely due to not knowing you well or not in a good mood) they will get a bit tense, but nothing will show up for your sim.
You will then be able to "Explain Ranking System" to your recruits or if you decide they are no longer recruit material, you can kick them out.
Recruits can "Request More Information about Plumbology" but don't have many other cult interactions other than asking to be accepted as a member, which may or may not go well. For a recruit to become a member you can simply use the "Accept Recruit as Member of Plumbology" interaction whenever you wish, but it is more fun to start a "Cult Initiation Ceremony" found under social events.
Once you accept a recruit, they will be given the "Plumbology Member (Ruby Rank)" gameplay trait. This trait unlocks new interactions such as "Praise Plumbology Leader". They can also now "Explain Ranking System" to recruits and ask other sims to join the cult and help it grow as well. They will also treat the cult leader as a bit of a celebrity and be "in awe" when in their presence.
Cult leaders can use "Ask For Offering" (yes you will actually get money), "Mentor in Plumbology", or "Promote to Carnelian Rank" on "Plumbology Member (Ruby Rank)" members whenever they want.
If you promote a member, they will then gain the "Plumbology Member (Carnelian Rank)" gameplay trait and also be able to mentor lower rank members. You can also demote these members (making them sad) whenever you like, should they do something against your wishes. There is also a third rank "Plumbology Member (Emerald Rank) which sims can be promoted to.
Social Events
Cult Initiation Ceremony
This event is a goaled event with the main goal being to accept at least one of your recruits. Of course, you could do the event without goals and do whatever you like, but you'll miss out on the cash rewards.
Cult Meeting
You can start a cult meeting once you have cult members (need city living for the goaled event to work) where goals include giving a speech at the podium (like a sermon) and asking sims for offerings etc.
Lot Traits
Cult Headquarters
You can give a lot this trait and sims with a cult member trait will spawn there.
Club Activities
Cult Activities
If you have Get Together, you can find "Cult Activities" in the club menu when making a club. This comes in handy if you want to make a small cult and set outfits and additional rules/activities for your cult. Or you can create a club for each rank of your cult if you have a bigger one.
Aspirations *NEW*
Divine Leader
This aspiration focuses on growing your cult as big as possible. The goals include having cult meetings, gaining members, increasing your charisma etc.
Devoted Follower
This aspiration focuses on being the best follower/rising in ranks within the cult. The goals include recruiting more members, gaining promotions, getting close to the cult leader etc.
Optional Files
I added a recolor of the university robes (as seen in the cover art above) in case anyone wants to use it. You can delete the file if you don't want it however.

I've recently got this mod, the aspiration is working perfectly fine but I can't start a cult :( I've clicked my sim when active and paused, nothing shows up to create a cult.
I select “make cult leader” but it doesn’t do anything. I have the Devine leader aspiration set but the “start a cult” goal won’t work.
