Slower Healthcare Redux Diseases Development (Patreon)

IMPORTANT! Obsolete for the Healthcare Redux version after the 17th June update!

08.02.2026 UPDATE:

The mod now affects gynecological and emergency conditions. Other packages that I haven't included yet don't behave the same way.

I divided the mod into packages corresponding to HCR modules. You can still use the All-In-One version if you want.

This mod makes Healthcare Redux diseases appear less often. There are different options for every lifespan variant. The mod is now modular, so you can download packages for modules you want to, or use All-In-One version.

I really like the Healthcare Redux mod, but the longer the selected lifespan, the more often sims pick up a bunch of sicknesses in their lifetime, which makes gameplay difficult.

So I wrote a small addon for this mod, which slows down the development of diseases from all modules.

Now the attempt to cast a disease on a sim happens less often - I can't say exactly because of the element of randomness and the chosen lifespan, but instead of every few days it happens every few weeks. For short lifespan it's once every few days, but still less frequent. Of course, mild diseases develop more often than severe ones (cancer, meningitis, malaria, tuberculosis).

This mod affects the following HCR modules:

Allergy

Cancer

Conditions

Diseases

Emergencies

Gynecology

F.A.Q.

Nothing changes?

You have more than one version of this mod

You put the mod deeper than one subfolder, check the script location

You didn't download the script

You have multiple All-In-One versions

You have multiple modular packages for the same module

You have both All-In-One version and any modular package

You have multiple scripts

INSTALLATION

First, remove the old version!

Second, you can actually use any lifespan option you want. It doesn't depend on the game settings — those are just my recommendations.

All-In-One

Unzip the downloaded archive (ONLY ONE) no deeper than one subfolder. If you have the All-In-One version, you cannot keep the modular packages.

Download from SFS:

LONG LIFESPAN

MEDIUM LIFESPAN

SHORT LIFESPAN

Your folder for the mod should look like this:

Modular Packages

Choose the packages you want, then download one version for each HCR module.

For example, you could have the long lifespan version for the cancer module and the short lifespan version for the emergencies module. However, you cannot have two versions of the cancer module.

Of course, you can't have the modular packages and the All-In-One version at the same time (as I wrote above).

DON'T FORGET THE SCRIPT FILE! The mod won't work without it!

Download from SFS:

Long Lifespan

Medium Lifespan

Short Lifespan

Put all the files into the Mods folder no deeper than one subfolder. It should look like this:

Important! To be clear, I don't own Healthcare Redux and don't modify its files. It's a plain add-on.
