Re: Sims Getting Buffs for Traits They've Never Had

@starstruckroman Could you upload both Sims to the gallery and post their names here ?


For the not enough excersice, did you use the soccer ball ?

  • @crinrict I've uploaded the household - it's under "BUG TESTING DONT DOWNLOAD" and my gallery username is starstruckroman. It has all three sims, but the only ones with issues are Trevor (one I downloaded from the gallery - only thing changed is his surname) and Gracie.

    No soccer ball usage.

    (I'll be unable to respond further until morning)

    Will need to play a while so not sure when I find the time. I couldn't find anything suspicious on the Sims.

    For the not enough exercise, do you get it regularly or could it be a certain interaction causing the issue ?
  • @crinrict That's all good!

    It's pretty regular and doesn't seem to be triggered by any specific activity. He's gotten it in his sleep, while standing, while reading, etc. It's about as frequent as the buff would be on a sim who actually had the Active trait.

    @starstruckroman OK. So I forgot to check the commodities and it seems Trevor has a Trait_Active commodity stuck on him. So, since you downloaded him from the gallery I'm guessing he had the trait at some point and then was changed but then uploaded with the commodity is still there.

    I don't know if MCCC has an option to get rid of those. I've started using this mod called Sims Info Box by Lumpinou: https://lumpinoumods.com/2023/07/24/sim-info-toolbox-view-modify-sim-details-info-sims-4-mod/ .. this lets you modify the Sim and remove the commodity. I have not been using it long so make sure to create a backup before using. I don't know if there's any side effects by simply removing the commodity.

    For Gracie I would go with this commodity


    Very hard to tell what added that. I don't know much about that but I guess if you have time, you could test if the genetics add that buff to the Sim if one of the parents is a genius. I would say that part would be a bug but maybe there's some mechanism that adds that (there's so many these days.

    If you can replicate the commodity being added this way on a vanilla game, it's probably best to report this as a fresh bug report.

  • @crinrict Awesome thank you so much! I don't have access to that save for a week now but I'll give it a shot when I'm able to.
