What are arranged marriages?
The "Arranged Marriage: Sim" and "Arranged Marriage: Caste" option can be used to persuade a sim, or set of sims, to marry a specific type of sim in town.
Note that this option is ignored if the sim is already married.
When "Arranged Marriage: Sim" is set :
The mod immediately stops pushing flirt pushes between the sim and anyone other than the sim specified in the option.
When the "Romance" manager cycles, the mod will attempt to initiate an engagement between the two sims.
Once engaged, marriage proceeds just like any other mod initiated marriage.
Note: If the sims are too young to be married, the process will hold off until they are eligible.
Arranged Marriages will not proceed if any other gating condition that would normally stop a marriage exists between the two sims.
Such as sims in opposing clans, or whose options explicitly deny marriage with the other sim
"Arrange Marriage: Caste" allows the user to specify a set of sims, rather than a specific one.
The option allows you to force marriage to only low wealth sims for instance, or any caste set you can define.
Choices are sorted by attraction-level, so the most attractive choices are considered first. However, less attractive choices will be chosen if no others exist.
This option automatically sets "Arranged Marriage: Sim". If that option is already set, the "Arranged Marriage: Caste" option is ignored.
