sims specific python tutorials?

It really depends on how hard you want to code directly against the EA code or whether you want to use a library. Libraries to make things more easy:
* There S4CL which I use a lot as it is documented. Anyhow the author is bullied by some mod creators for things he did in the past.
* There's also the lot51 library which is quite new. I tried to replace S4CL with it and failed due to missing features and documentation.
* And there the even newer BBL Bluuberry Library which I didn't look at yet.

In case you want code directly against the TS4 methods and write your own injection code to add your own injections take a look at these libraries as they may really help you to write your own code to handle buffs, traits, pie menus, popups etc. correctly.

The starter project sims4studio.com/thread/15145/started-python-scripting for PyCharm is a little bit old. S4CL has a more recent template project with additional features.

Code of my mods can be found at github.com/Oops19/ in case you want to look at existing mods without the need to de-compile them first.


While you might also want to create XML snippets which are translated to Python objects and code during startup of TS4.
