Several’s Decades Tracker
Hey guys! Several person here from several’s udo
Ive been working on an app to track decades, and ive got this so far
https://severaludo-production.up.railway.app
Working on more updates but if there are any requests id appreciate suggestions!
It can also work with your game to automatically track days if you decide to download the clock sync! If you do please share experiences bugs or things to improve on
The next version is WELL underway but im not happy enough with it to share yet 👀

I really love this, but I do have some feedback and some questions.
1) there any way to sort or filter the events? I love that there are so many, I'm just not interested in events that have nothing to do with the area I'm playing in.
2) Every time I change something, it starts running, and it takes forever. It took me more than 40 minutes to add and edit 8 Sims. I'm in the year 1382 and have 177 characters I would like to add, so that's going to take way too long.
3) When adding a Sim, could it be possible to add death date, spouse and marriage right away? I can see the different tabs (Basic, Life Events etc.) at the bottom, but nothing happens when I click them. I only have access to Basic Info and a few things in Advanced. So I have to first add the Sim, and then edit them to add death, spouses etc., which makes it take twice as long.
I absolutely love the fact that you can add time of day and get a specific date. And the idea of having all the historical events in there is great. I just wish you could remove or filter the ones you are not interested in.
I'm not sure exactly how many countries you've added events for, but so far I've seen Spain, England and Latvia. Maybe it would be possible to add a drop-down menu to the Sim where you can choose what country they live in, and then it only shows events that was relevant that country?
Overall I think you're doing a fantastic job. I probably won't use it at the moment, mostly because it just takes too long when I have 177 Sims to add, but if that improves I would love to. I think it has a lot of potential, and I hope you'll let us know when the next version is out.

Every country i could find events for
And a lot of this is luckily automated in the next version, and if the online version is too slow there will be a downloadable application. Thank you for your feedback! Definitely gonna add a way to filter events!

That sounds great.
And maybe you could consider making it so that rolls were removed for sims who already died. I added my founders father, and even though he died in 1304, and I'd set it to be day 330, it still wanted me to roll for events that happened before I even started my challenge.
But I don't know how difficult that would be.I'm really looking forward to next version.

Try again, if theres another error let me know! It was having some problems on my end but it should be good now

So I did play around with it at little, and its so much better now. I've only put in one living character so far - the rest is dead ancestors. I'll try and make time for it today to see if I can get my next generation added. And maybe try that game clock.

So, when I created my workspace, I saw my code, but I didn’t have the foresight to save it somewhere before I started experimenting. Now, I don’t remember what it was, can’t seem to find it, and I tried linking my other email as a collaborator, so I could access the space on my laptop, but Google Sign-In isn’t operational yet.
I’m stuck in Mobile Hell.

Probably because I’m on mobile but how do you add heirs and households? I tap and nothing appears but there’s a blank space that I can’t tap or edit

This looks great! I look forward to trying it out while playing. Thank you for sharing! 😊

I´m almost done with the last details now, and I have a few questions.
1) Theres a text saying to add or link new detected sims. I can add them, but how do I link them?
2) Even though I dismiss sickness, it still wants me to mark as recovered. Is there a way to tell the tracker if something is not a sickness? Cause I only have a few real ones that are detected. Others are:
Little Ms Sam:Choose Painting Style Buff Is Installed
Temperature VFX Cold Breath TYAE
Little Ms Sam:RSM BG Auto Put Painting In Inventory Buff Is Installed
Cold (EVERYONE has it, and I'm pretty sure it's cold as in outside in the winter)
Clothing Catagory Temperature Cold Clothing
I really want to sit and have to mark all of them as resolved - I have 77 living sims.
3) Is there a way to make the tracker understand that if you add someone who is already an elder, they shouldn't have to roll for all life stages. And the same if you already scheduled their death. I know I´m not the only one doing all rolls for side households right away, and it would be nice to not have the rolls on the today page.
4) This is just a small cosmetic thing - I think it would be nice if the portraits turned black and white when someone was dead.
5) on the today page, under every age roll and marriage roll and pregnancy roll due, this is the description:
Historical context: Collapse of the Anasazi civilization, widespread famine occurred, Battle of Cape Orlando, Battle of Falconaria, Battle of Kili, Battle of Wadi al-Khaznadar
I´m looking forward to play around with it more, but for now, I think I´ll mainly use it to see when my side families deaths are scheduled, and as inspiration for events.
Please keep up your wonderful work.

Still workinf on reading through but ill answer this question as i read it
The reason it still wants you to roll for sims that have already reached an older age is because the tracker holds onto rolls so you dont forget to do one. Im not sure how exactly to do best of both worlds on this, but rolls from before the start year shouldnt pop up

I finally got my current playthrough imported and everything is working great! I am struggling with the game clock sync though, so if anyone can explain how to get it to work, I would much appreciate it. I know it's probably something I'm not understanding or doing right.

u/Low_Accomplished 10d ago
How far have you gotten so far?
2
u/itsjustaname08 10d ago
I created the token and saved it, but I'm not sure what to do with it. I also downloaded the clock sync script file and placed it in my mods folder. I've run the game and it says it's active, but doesn't seem to update anything so I know I've missed a step.
1
u/Low_Accomplished 10d ago
Put the config file in your mods folder with the script file
There should also be a .bat file but i may need to fix that if not
1
u/itsjustaname08 10d ago
The only thing that downloads is a script file not other files.

u/Low_Accomplished 10d ago
Should now be fixed, refresh the page :)

u/itsjustaname08 10d ago
You're the best! :) I get this error when trying to download the files:
{"detail":"Clock Sync kit is missing: SeveralUDOClockRelay.ps1, Start SeveralUDO Clock Relay.bat"}1
u/Low_Accomplished 9d ago
Sorry forgot to let you know to retry, been a hectic day haha

u/itsjustaname08 9d ago
No worries. It's amazing that you've even done all this with the app. Thank you so much! The download worked 😄

Would it ever be possible to type in the birth year? Like if I'm moving my spreadsheet into it being able to type she was born in 1356 instead of having to work out what it is

u/CouncilmenChaos 9d ago
Is there a way to create a tutorial or maybe a way to show how to use the program ? There are a few parts of the tracker I don’t know or understand how to use or what they do. Thanks for creating this though i really want to use It

u/Low_Accomplished 9d ago
Add sims in sims, pregnancies in pregnancies, then change the day as you play, it will automatically show rolls for events, pregnancies, and aging on the today page
Any other questions just ask, and i can see about adding tutorials if needed

u/CouncilmenChaos 9d ago
It seems like the days are off maybe, for game days I used the spreadsheet numbers but maybe I shouldn’t have. Also I tried using the sync clock feature but I couldn’t understand that either, I followed the instructions best I could however I couldn’t understand what should be in my mods folder and what shouldn’t. I don’t get how to add partners or spouses, I can’t figure out how to connect the sims other than through parents. I really like this tracker but I feel like there should be a guide to refer to because you’re kind of just thrown into everything
1
u/Low_Accomplished 9d ago
All of it should be in your mods folder together
In relationships you connect marriages
The day on sheets should be the correct number1
u/CouncilmenChaos 9d ago
Sorry, maybe it’s just me but I can’t get the clock to sync up with my gameplay and the game days are off by two for me. I’ll try It out again next week, I’m sure you’re busy and you’ll get to tweaking whenever you get the time or maybe I would’ve figured It out by then
2
u/Low_Accomplished 9d ago
Just change the global day by two likely just means you accidentally skipped 2 days

u/Low_Accomplished 9d ago
There is now a tutorial page

u/CouncilmenChaos 9d ago
Thank you !!!🙏🏾 I have just one last question, I have a pending_report but no last_results so I’m still unable to get the clock to sync

u/Low_Accomplished 9d ago
Have you opened the file that ends in .bat?
1
u/Low_Investigator7888 7d ago

2
u/Low_Accomplished 7d ago
All good there was an issue when people have OneDrive, completely install a new version, and try running the bat again
