Odd Jobs Career Tone Fix

This is a fix for the Island Living odd job system where, if you're on another lot when a gig ends, there will be an error and the gig won't end.

It adds a career tone to each of the career levels so that they're always doing Work Normally instead of just At Work.

The only difference you'll see in game is that your sim will have a little work symbol and if you travel to another lot with another sim while the gig is active, the lightning bolt arrow for off lot sims is replaced by that.

(Zoe is at an odd job, Mitchell is at the park, and J and Gavin are at home.)

This should also fix the same bug affecting mods that use the Island Living gigs system (like Historical Gigs) but any mod that uses a clone of that will need to include their own fix.

This will conflict with anything that overrides any of these:

  • careerLevel_OddJob_0
  • careerLevel_OddJob_1
  • careerLevel_OddJob_2
  • careerLevel_OddJob_3
  • careerLevel_OddJob_4
  • careerLevel_OddJob_5

But any modder who does that should also include this fix in their override to make gigs work correctly and without errors.

You need Island Living.
