﻿Lifeline 1.0 for The Sims 3
===========================

Saves your game on its own, once an hour. On the cell phone or a computer,
under "Curbside..." then "Lifeline...", you can switch to every 30 minutes or
every 2 hours, pause it, and see its version. A brand-new game that has never
been saved gets one reminder to save it by hand first; after that Lifeline
takes over.

INSTALL
  1. Make sure The Sims 3 is closed.
  2. Double-click "Install Lifeline.bat".
  3. Start the game and play.

The installer finds your Sims 3 folder, sets up the Mods folder if you have
never used mods before, copies the mod in, and clears the game's script cache
so it picks the mod up. It changes nothing else. Run it again any time; it
only ever touches this one mod.

If Windows shows a blue "protected your PC" box, click "More info" then
"Run anyway". That box appears for any downloaded script that is not signed.

UNINSTALL
  Close the game and double-click "Uninstall Lifeline.bat". It removes the
  mod and leaves your other mods, folders and saves alone.

NOTES
  The hour is real time, not game time, and the count starts when a game is
  loaded. While the game is paused, nothing is saved because nothing changes.
  If a dialog is open or a save is already running when the hour comes, it
  waits a few minutes and tries again.
