Remove Fear from Townie/NPC?

I have the issue that a lot of NPCs in Sulani have Fear of Swimming or Fear of Darkness. There are Cheats to remove fears from your played sim. But how can i remove a fear from an NPC aka Townie?

I tried to move this Townie to an empty lot to make him playable, removed the fear and moved him out afterwards which removed the fears at least for a short time until he gets it again (which happens in Sulani very soon). But this is not only a complicated way, it also has the downside, that the Townie loses his job.

Is there an easier way to remove fears from unplayed sims?

    Awesome! I thought the cheats only work on the active sim. Didn't know that you can just add the ID to make cheats work on other sims. Does this work for other sim-related cheats too?

    I was searching for a mod but didn't find one and i don't want the kind of mods in my game that are known for breaking with each update. A small mod that does this cheat by shift-clicking on another sim would be cool. Unfortunately i'm not that far, that i could write it myself.

    Thanks a lot. You made my day!

    You can remove a trait from any Sim by adding the ID of the Sim to the cheat

    traits.remove_trait <trait> <simID>

    to get the ID use: sims.get_sim_id_by_name

    The easiest option would probably be mods if you are not opposed to them.
