[AA] Is there a guide to triggering formative moments?

  1. I am trying to get my child sim to achieve all the formative moments, and so far she has 24, but I know that is less than half of them. 

    There are some formative moments that I don't know how to trigger, such as "Be Inquisitive about Health". She has played with the doctor set several times; I even bought a second set, but there is never an option for her to take on this formative moment. 

    When I click on her to get her to "take on a formative challenge", it often says that there are no new ones available for her. 

    Is there a guide somewhere to how each formative moment can be triggered (I'm not talking about how to achieve them once they have been triggered)?

  • I too am stuck with be the health one. I read online play doctor until you get a moodlet from it. I did, then tried search for a formative moment but srill nothing. He ages up in a few days too

  • gertie47​  I'm still trying to figure them out myself.  Most of the ones I've done are when I found and clicked on an option on various objects.  Many on the home lot as well as in the AA world as well as other worlds.  Some will require special objects like an urn (that one concerns meeting ghosts).  It seems they can be on just about any object that can be interacted with.

    Hope this helps.

    To get the Inquisitive ones, I'm pretty sure I had them read under the covers and then click a bookcase to look at a scrapbook. You should get one of the 3, you finish it, and repeat and another one will pop-up. I hope I remember that correctly. I've gotten to the point where there are no more moments available for my child too. I keep scouring the webs to see if someone has finally compiled the information. Feel free to ask me about some. I only have 10 left (Encounter death you needs someone to die in front of you... need that one but know how it comes up, Be a Caregiver and Sibling Adventures require a sibling and I do not have one). Maybe we can trade notes if you have some I don't have and need. 

    Be a Completionist, Be a Rouge, Be a Survivalist, Be a Traveler, Be an Aspiring Author, Be an Outdoor Enthusiast, Be the Best Friend, Care for the Environment (the beach is already cleaned so now I don't know what might trigger it), and Share Morbid Curiosity. 

    My child does have an imaginary friend. I heard some trigger randomly with that, but I can't seem to get it to happen.
