Weather Mods: More Heat Shimmer in Summer, More Lightning

First mod makes the heat shimmer effect (Like in Egypt) show up at 80 degrees instead of the rare 90 degrees.

Second mod makes the lightning strikes happen more often, with less time between strikes (but not too much), and a higher chance that any given lightning strike will be on the currently active lot instead of in the distance. Also increases the chance of rainbows.

These mods modify two different files, so they are compatible with each other.

NPCs More Likely to Ask You to Move In

Makes AI sims ask YOU to move in WITH THEM more often. Some people don't even know this is possible. If your sim has a high relationship, a friend might ask them to move into their house. But the default chance of this is only 1%, and only 2% if the relationship is romantic. I've bumped it up to 50% and 100%. Don't worry, they'll only ask once every 3 days.

Smooth Motive Drop 1.42

Smooth Motive Drop

But updated for 1.42. Makes moods drop at a smooth constant rate instead of slowing down the lower they get. Does not affect Hygiene or Fun, and will slow down when a sim is Starving so sims don't drop like flies.
