Way back in the day when I first got married my State in The US was under Water restrictions, so to be Eco- Friendly , my husband & I took our Morning shower together to save water... So with this Eco - Pack, can Woohooing in the shower be brought into Sims 4?

We stayed at a Ecological camp ground in Catskill Mountains in New York that had environmentally sound shower systems suppoosedly with recycle systems - believe me no time do hardly bathe never mind anything else - You barely got soaped up and the water stopped. 3 Minutes is all you got, and the water was cool on top of it.

It's something many fans have asked for!
It's an adult joke, been around since the 1970's. 'Shower together and save water'
And considering it's the sims, in ts3, it was more efficient for two sims to woohoo in the shower, have some good clean fun, and come out clean, than it was for two sims to shower seperately.
You'd never survive in a submarine.
My family used to have a bucket shower.
it held 10 litres. You put the water of the temperature you wanted in, hoisted it up, and had until it ran out.
It's a good way of controling exacly how much water everyone is using in the shower.
And the shower water was used to water trees.
Then there's the interaction itself, which probably wouldn't be that hard to do once the other pieces are in place, but they do have to make sure that the geometry works right for differently sized showers, if they were to allow it inside both single tile and double tile showers.
Not meaning to discourage; just explaining that those VFX are only one piece of a puzzle that is a lot more complicated than it might first seem.

That is a myth unless you take really quick showers. even with energy star shower heads you can empty a 30 gallon hot water tank in 11-15 minutes - you can take two bathes in a standard half full tub off the same amount of water of that one energy star shower. People chose showers because it is faster and more convenient to them - but water usages in showers unless you can take a 6 - 9 minute or faster shower uses more hot water - which in turn uses more electricity to reheat the water heater. Also the average persons shower time generally is at least 12 minutes with the standard for at least females at about 15 - 18 minutes.
Quick showers though under 9 minutes is cheaper with energy star shower heads which uses 2 gallons of water a minute, unfortunately most people go above the 9 minute mark. Also if you do not have an energy star shower head but a normal one you will use 2 and a half gallons a minute - if you have a hand head or multi head shower each head will do 2 and a half gallons a minute - a hand held on high open can use 3 and a half gallons or more a minute - depends on the hand held. Tubs don't waver generally.
My step father is a master plumber and I used to be lectured regularly about this. LOL. He is the save the water king I swear. To add to the insult my parents showers has 8 heads from all different directions - and I still take just as long using their shower as using my own single headed energy star. Which infuriates my step father. He tells me to take a bath instead. They have these whirl pool bath tubs and I want no part of it - feels like things touching your skin under water from the jets (sort of freaks me out) - so when I am there I use one of the showers.

Probably that water restriction was just in your state - as here in the NorthEast I don't ever recall water use being restricted. Besides most people have artisan wells - one thing we don't lack is water.
