Content

Simply open the pie menu and start typing whatever interaction you want, it will narrow the results for you. When there's only a single interaction found, you can press enter to run the interaction.

Features

Searchable Pie Menu: As soon as the pie menu is opened, you can type to filter the interactions. If results are found, the menu will refresh with the filtered results.

Press Enter to Select: If your search returns a single result, you can press enter to immediately select that interaction.

Time Controls with Menu Open: Hold alt and press `, 0, 1, 2, or 3 to set the respective time.

Pan Camera with Menu Open: Press the arrow keys for the respective directions. There is a small delay before moving which is unavoidable due to the core game engine restrictions.

Really happy with how it's turned out. 😊

You know, when I first saw this on Twitter I was like "ehhh, I know where everything is I don't think I'll need this." But then I was playing yesterday and was going nuts trying to find one stupid interaction. I stopped mid losing my mind and thought, "ok yea you know what, I ammmmm going to need that mod." 😂

peculiaritea

this is going to be so useful for when I have to do something for an aspiration or promotion bc it's usually seven levels deep in "more options" and I accidentally click past it at least twice XD

WildishWolf

I am so excited to test this!

Rebecca

Thank you, testing now.

Wedona

in which languages can I write the interactions?

Granny

thank you!

Jacki

Thank you so much! Can't wait to try this. As in I'm going into game now and checking it out 🤣🤣

So I don't know if this is a user skill issue or something else, but this is not working for me at all - if I click on someone and bring up the pie menu, trying to type anything just works the camera controls/keyboard shortcuts. I am playing on a Mac if that has any possible bearing on this.

This is SUCH a good idea! Love, love, love! Thank you so much!

Terah

This is amazing! One minor thing: the escape key doesn't pull up the menu where you can save and exit your game. Do you think you can make this work again?

Hi ! I'm so glad I became a Patreon for this mod which is just SO convenient, even more when you have all packs + many mods that add interactions on Sims and items. Thank you for coming to my stream yesterday ! As I told you, I had an issue with the exit button, but I could see it was solved in the new release, which is great! However, I still noticed a small issue, when hitting escape or any arrow keys while a a pie menu, those keys don't work as expected. No big deal, but just wanted to let you know. Thank you for your hard work!

When I was using RC2 yesterday, I noticed I have to click somewhere else to close the pie menu before using 0-3 to pause or change the speed. Is it possible to make those work without having to close the menu?

Maybe, the problem is a pie menu item might have a number in the name and someone might actually want to search by that.

Hi, love this mod so far but was wondering if there may be a future update with an add-on version that doesn't include the '`' or '1-3' so we can pause and play while still toggling the pie menu.

Hi, I tried getting help in the discord for a while but I’ve had an issue with this mod not searching the pie menu. When the pie menus are up and I try typing, the regular key binds to pause, play, open the inventory etc. are activated.

Beth Henricks

OH MY GOD. OH my god. OMG OMG. I want to have your sim babies. This...is.. a game changer.

Renée Cahl

This truly is game changing. I do notice, however, that some foods (such as cake) do not show up when searched.

It's not a recipe search, it's interactions only. Make sack lunch has some foods as interactions, foods in a picker pop up will not show up

Clinton

Very cool. Avoids a whole lot of searching!

J. Q. Hani

awesome! thanks so much!

OhhKamii

aww I love my dark ui TT^TT

Tinycoffeecups

omg if you could do this with pose player too, that would be a god send!!

Aqua

Noooo, I hope Dark Ui will be compatible in the future <3

Sabirah

Could u make one search for traits when adding them manually for sim via pie menu cheat, that would be so helpful as there are so much traits to search for :))

Kiersten Rives

Thank you so much for this! This will be helpful especially when I'm trying to meet goals on dates and at parties. I plan on becoming a Patron when I get paid in a could of days!
