When a mermaids jumps in the pool it might take a bit for the tail to appear, in case it won’t, do “swim laps” and see if that works. Mermaids won’t have the tail when they are in the shower, but they will if they are in a bathtub. Another thing with the tail, is that they appear only in some specific locations during specific actions!įor ex. The tail, of course, will follow the same color scheme of the scales. – Mermaids have the ability to change the color of their scales! You’ll just have to select the color under the menu “Change the color of your scales” in the Mermaid pie menu. So take good care of your scales, or else… They will have a “very dried” skin and will be unable to use the pool.Īfter the mermaid passes these two stages, they will die from dehydration. = The second and last buff is Dehydrated (+50 uncomfortable), where the sim will almost nearly die. = The first buff to appear when low on hydration is “Chapped” (+2 uncomfortable), which will make the sim to have a “pretty dried” skin. If a mermaid doesn’t care about their hydration they will pass 2 stages before dying:

With advantages though, come disadvantages because the Hydration need decays much faster when staying outside during daytime! Normally you’d have to spend most of your time near water sources but, to make things easier, I made sure that everytime they use water and then they don’t use it anymore, the “Hydrated” (+2 Happy) buff, which lasts 4 hours, will appear and will slowly fill the hydration need.

This need can be filled by swimming in the pool, taking a shower, taking a bath, going on a water slide, etc.

– Let’s start with the hydration need, which will replace Hygiene.
