[NEEDS INPUT] [GF] Celestial Crystal Crown: recharged needs drops when removed

After Jonquilyst is removed, all recharged needs are dropped. Hunger is dropped very low.

Carl's guide says this:

"Crystal Effects

Note that when motives fill, they are simply set at 100. When the effect is removed, they'll go back part way to where they were before you used the filling effect. Use these effects to extend your Sim's active time and deal with needs later. Great for a quick performance if your needs are low and you're in a rush."

 - which is what happened in my game; so not actually recharging the motives bars, but keeping them constant at full (100), only so long as the crown was worn.

@DonroaAkashu Thanks! But look at the pictures. I mounted and then immediately unmounted Jonquilyst. The Social Need dropped quite a bit in one Sim minute. In my practical play, sometimes they might drop even more to the warning level. It's pretty random. You could see Bladder and Fun filled a bit in this case. But they might not go back to where they were.

Before mounting Jonquilyst:

After removing Jonquilyst:

Yes, that is rather odd. Did you try in a new folder? 

Did you put your save in the new folder; or made a new save in the new folder without any of your files moved over? The Jonquilyst crystal is rare and hard to get. I tried the crystals that can be bought from the computer. Can you name any of those that does not work the way Carl's guide says they will? 

@DonroaAkashuHi, hope I could understand your requests correctly. You could get those crystal by using the cheats: bb.showhiddenobjects, then get them from buy mode.
You could easily reproduce the problemthen. I do it this way, too. So far the crystal that will still keep the needs recharged is Jet. The others will have the problem described above. Anyway, I did not test them one by one. Just summarize couple that I used often.

@imhotep168  Sorry for being unclear: since the Jonquilyst crystal is rare and hard to find in gameplay, I suspected that you did not try in a completely new folder; but moved your old save, where you had access to the crystal, into the newly created The Sims 4 user folder. But now it seems like you did create a new folder, and used buydebug to get access to a Jonquilyst crystal. Cheats aren't in your original bug report - and they are cheats - and not part of actual gameplay; and not supported in the same way.

I did try though, but noticed no difference before and after wearing the crystal crown mounted with Diamond bought from the computer; and Jonquilyst crystal obtained through cheats. The Jet crystal, like you said, had the effects stay, once the crown was removed.

I will leave the thread to crinrict now though.

Don't know if this helps, but...

Don't use the Crystal Crown much, but I have a Scientist/Archeologist who has all the crystals plus a cloning machine. He sometimes uses the crown. My impression of how it works is that when you take it off, needs go to where they would have been had your Sim not been wearing the crown, not to where they were when it was first put on. It's a moodlet delayer rather than a moodlet solver.

Not to say there are no glitches.
