Re: [OPEN] Excessive 'baby diaper' thought bubble

@Ozlem80 I've been seeing this as well. The first few times I though...does this kid need a bathroom? Revisiting the diaper days? But it's random across most age categories and doesn't seem to reflect the current bladder value.

    Thinking of diapers is just part of the Happy/Top Notch Toddler trait idle. How often does this happen in your game (per Sim)?

    @kusurusuI wished I caught the screenshot in time but didn't think of it when it happened. I had my triplet children and my twin teens all working on their extra credit school projects outside on the lawn at once, my walls were turned off so inside you could see the nanny and butler and a parent. All at once they all stopped and thought about diapers. It was a 'whoa' moment and that's when i thought about the screenie and missed my chance. That was the catalyst of me putting a ticket in for it to be looked at.

    Out of every 10 bubbles 7 are diapers. Even when kids are playing with the cat with a wand or light, actions that always used to just make them think of icons relating to that action - cats, love, playing and cat wands - diapers appear as well. When working on a trait, say creative, the creative thought bubble pops up and soon is followed by a diaper.

    It's too often, more often than before.

    edit: now I'm more aware of it, I can see townies walk around and at night when you see the pillow or bed thoughts you also see diapers. Before they aged up my twins used to think about diapers as toddlers and at the time i thought this was because they wanted potty, they were unskilled and had no traits at the time to justify how often they thought about diapers (also their toiler needs were green.) I never thought much until the children then teens started and the adults. When they all did it at once I decided it was time to put a ticket in.

  • I have the same problem, my two Sims (who grew up in the same house, but aren't siblings) and who I later married off, do nothing but think about diapers throughout the day. They did it as kids, continued as teenagers, and even now that they are adults, all they have in their thoughts are diapers. As in the photo posted by the OP.

    I see this a lot, and have wondered if it's a reference to the Top Notch Toddler/Happy Toddler traits.

    [ETA - LOL, @kusurusu already said that.]

    Yeah, if it's related to the happy toddler/top notch toddler trait, they're remembering how happy they were when they were toddlers.

    If you got all toddler skills to 3 (happy toddler) or 5 (top notch toddler), your sim will have this trait and will remember how happy they were.  This might annoy you, but they also get a 10% (happy toddler) or 25% (top notch toddler) skill bonus for life, so... it's pretty awesome, actually.
