Life Hacks/Familiarize Yourself
You figure that there is no real reason to rush into things. You take your time, and go through the menu of Lifie Controller to familiarize yourself with the interface. You are very careful not to make any changes just yet. There is an immense amount of control you can exert over people . . . well lifies with the mod.
You click on Settings to familiarize yourself with the options. They seem to be mostly related to how different modules interact with one another and the default settings of the dialogs. You do notice one that is of use immediately. The setting Adjust Lifie Memories draws your attention. It is currently set to true you test the options, and they are true, false, and prompt. You could see situations where you might not want to have people's memory adjusted, so you set it to prompt instead. Now if you want to see someone wig out at being suddenly changed you can do so.
Clicking on Adjust Appearance, you see that you appear to be able to be able to make pretty much any physical change you want with the Adjust Appearance menu, but some of them appear to be limited by physical attribute levels. It makes sense, you suppose, having no strength and big muscles wouldn't be very logical.
You click the Adjust Relationship menu and it appears that you need to select a target. It reads, "Please select a subject." Curious, you tentative press your hand to your chest, and notice a faint yellow glow emanate from your body. You move to your full body mirror to check it out. The glow is faint, but obvious, and radiates from yourself and your clothing. It feels a little surreal to see yourself like this. Now that you are "selected" you can see a list of your relationships. It seems that the game tracks Like/Dislike in a single meter that is green(for like) and red (for dislike). Below that meter, the game seems to track Dominance/Submission in blue and yellow respectively. At the bottom it appears to track Platonic Love and Romantic Love in white and pink. Unlike the previous meters, it seems that they aren't mutually exclusive. You are about to move on, when you notice that much to your surprise, your twin sister Charity seems to feel romantic love for you. With how much she seems to love torturing you, you can't seem to reason that out in your mind. You shake your head, and file the information for later so you can move on.
Pressing the Adjust Personality menu seems to be a list of thousands of personality trait sliders. It seems to cover pretty much every aspect of a person's personality, and with yourself selected, you get a quick overview of your own personality. It's much like you expected, but the shyness value is much lower than you expected . . . maybe because of your new-found power?
You press the Adjust Attributes selection and see that the attributes are exhaustive, but seem to be in categories for physical, mental, social, and appearance, so you just think of them like that. They seem to top out at 200.
You press Adjust Skills are quite overwhelming, with hundreds of thousands of entries. Fortunately there is an option called Max All Skills which you are certain to use on yourself at some point.
You click Adjust Traits and see that they seem to be genetic and environmental factors. Each trait is a slider or range rather than being just a binary flag. Like most of the other menus, there are tons of traits. You absently notice that your poison ivy resistance is one of the traits listed, as is your myopia, before moving on.
You press the Adjust Rewards selection, and see that rewards seem to be based off of some kind of point system, and you see no way to cheat more points onto yourself . . . at least not from this module . . . so they may have to wait.
There seems to be an integrated search system to make options easier to find, and a favorites system to put frequently used options at the top of the menus.
After spending an hour or so going through the menus, you finally feel confident in making some changes.
Since a lot of the others menus are limited by attribute levels, you decide to
