Hi! First time poster so I'm sorry if I made any mistakes!

I have a toddler who is the first child of two sims I've been working on for awhile now. Originally when she first aged up to a toddler, I gave her the Charmer trait, but later I found out that it can cause bugs (foreshadowing? hah) so I edited her using the cas.fulleditmode cheat, and gave her the Angelic trait instead. Time went on and everything was fine, but then one day she woke up from a nap and had the "Where Is Everyone?" sad moodlet. I thought this was weird considering she was no longer a charmer, but I assumed it was just because I used a cheat to change the trait so I tried to fix it on my own.  I made her socialize with the parents and nothing happened. I thought maybe it would eventually go away on its own but that didn't happen either. Then I started researching to see if others have had this same issue and apparently this is pretty common. Most of the fixes I saw out there said to use Sims.remove_all_buffs, so I did, but it would not work. I assume this is on of the cheats that was taken out in a patch awhile ago, but I'm not sure how else I can fix this. Does anyone else have ideas? Some people were saying the moodlet will literally carry on throughout her life, which is extremely frustrating. I have never had any issues like this before. Please help!

Thanks so much in advance!

    Hi @lovetuv

    I've merged your thread wit the current cheat-moodlet-stays thread. I think it's basically the same issue even if you couldn't resolve the moodlet.

    It's very possible that the game doesn't recognize it properly.

    I don't know if this is still an issue for you now or if the toddler has grown up but to remove the moodlet, the only option is to use a mod that gives you the ability to use the cheat back.

    Google TexiMexi cheat fix if you're interested.

    Also, and this may help - use the re-traiting potion.  I think that's the best way to do it.  

    Makes things a lot easier. You can use aspiration points under rewards, or you can use the bb.showhiddenobjects cheat (make sure testingcheatsenabled true is on.) Then type "Re-traiting poition." Should be fine.

    Sorry to have been away for a while. Work life. Ugh.
