Mod: SimCity Loans 2.0

Added 2021-03-09 06:01:00 +0000 UTC

Originally by Scarlet.

Original Description (edited to merge in newest features info): Your sims (teen and up) can now apply for loans from SimCity Bank. When your sim needs a loan have them click on the computer and select SimCity Loans. From there you will select which loan amount you want.

Loan Amounts include:

§1,000
§5,000
§10,000
§25,000
§50,000
§100,000
§250,000
§500,000

Once you select the loan amount, your sim will receive a Loan Packet in their inventory (which is not delete-able). Your sim will then be responsible for repaying it! When repaying the loan, you have two options:

Repay in full with no interest.
Make 12, 24, or 36 payments which includes a 5% interest rate.

If your sim doesn’t make a payment (or pay in full) within 48 hours, he/she will receive a Loan Payment Due (fine mood) buff. Once you receive the Loan Payment Overdue buff, a 5% late fee (5% of your payment) will be deducted shortly after, and if your sim ignores this buff for 24 hours, this buff will turn into a Loan Payment Overdue! (stressful mood) buff. After the first late fee, they will be deducted about every 24 hours until your sim makes a payment. If your sim is at work, the late fees will be deducted shortly after they get home. If you don't have enough Simoleons for the late fee, it will deduct when you do. The only way to remove this is to make a payment (or pay in full).

If your Debtor sim dies, the loan packet will be sent to the household inventory (still not delete-able). After you place it on your lot, another household sim can use the Take Over Loan interaction. This will add the loan packet to that sim’s inventory and he/she will be responsible. Don’t worry, any payments that the deceased sim made won’t be lost!

If your Debtor sim dies and gets added back to the household either as a ghost or resurrected, they won’t have the loan packet anymore (obviously since it went to the household inventory). However, they can’t take out a loan. They’ll have to use the computer and click on SimCity Loans > Request Loan Forgiveness (which will cost §1,000), then after 3 days they can apply for a loan again if needed.

♦ Additional Information ♦

Sims can only have one active loan at a time. However, once your sim pays off the loan, you can click on the loan packet and select Destroy. Your sim can then take out another loan if desired.
The loan packet is not drag-able! This was done on purpose to keep it in your sims inventory for needed buffs and interaction availability. It’s also not delete-able, for obvious reasons….no skipping out on your debt!
If you move your household while the loan packet is on the lot (after placing it from the household inventory), it can be found in the household inventory once again. No running away from it until it’s paid!

NOTE – If you use Basemental Drugs and your Sim gets arrested, they will lose their loan packet as well. If this happens, you’ll have to use the Request Loan Forgiveness option on the computer.

Requirements & Conflicts
