List of Traits in The Sims 4

Hello!

Despite the discussion collecting these already existing, I've decided to make my own traits list due to how these forums work (it starts from the first post, not the last post, and it takes long to reach the last post). 

This list contains all the traits in-game, both visible and hidden, in these sections:

To add a trait, you'll need to use this cheat:

traits.equip_trait [trait_codename]

And to remove a trait, you'll need to use this cheat:

traits.remove_trait [trait_codename]

In both cheats, [trait_codename] needs to be replaced with trait's codename. For most of the personality traits, it's same as its name, but there are exceptions (Erratic for example). Find the trait codenames in the list below.

These lists will be kept updated as patches and packs come out.

Please do not post under these trait lists. If you'd like to suggest traits for the popular section or want to discuss some traits, please reply to either this post or someone else's.

    These base game traits are perfect options for simmers that want to hone their sims skills in a quick manner for storytelling.🙂

    Patch 174

    Update released on 14.01.2025.

    This brought  new traits:

    • trait_Kleptomaniac_Enhanced
    • trait_isEmit
    • trait_Hidden_StickyFingers
    • trait_Hidden_startingSimoleons
    • trait_Hidden_careerIncomeBoost_A
    • trait_Hidden_careerIncomeBoost_B

    Note. Even though Kleptomaniac Enhanced is a reward trait, it conflicts with the Good trait.

    technically, trait_Kleptomaniac_Enhanced is a hidden trait which slightly alters the Kleptomaniac personality trait (by replacing icon, name and description as well as reducing broadcaster los from 10 to 8) - both traits being added to your Sim upon completing the Sticky Fingers aspiration

    Oh wow, that is new and interesting. The trait file did look strange too, so that's the case...

    Thanks for sharing! This is something very good to know.
