Mixology and uni?

And you're sure she didn't have the certificate/trait before returning home? Did you control her while at university? Both are officially granted via loot_University_ClassroomShell_SkillClass_BartenderDegree (requiring 11 skill classes) only.

Edit: I think I found the issue. The counter (which has to reach 11) increases every time you take a mixology class OR any classes if you don't have the certification (trait) yet. I hope should they fix it they make it also possible to take classes in that skill after mastering it.

I'm sure. She didn't live on campus, she lives at home and commutes to school (so it's all rabbithole.) She left, and returned with the certificate. So it's a bug, I guess. Sounds like you're saying that sims will get a mixology certificate no matter what classes they take... Darn. Oh well. I'll probably report it once I test further without mods. Unless somebody else beats me to it.

To the OP: I can confirm that earning a mixology certificate helps with the career. But don't choose the Culinary career, look for a specific career called 'Mixology.' My sim got a nice bonus and started at level 6. I've decided to let her be a mixologist at night and a vet during the day.

My sim just got one after she sat in on dancing class.

> I just tested it and my sim started from 0 mixology skill and got about up to level 5 solely through spamming the "take mixology class" phone interaction on the home lot about 6ish times. I don't know if the exact number of times you take the class to get the "degree" changes depending on if you have mixology skill already but at least I can confirm they DID provide a way to get a boost in the mixology career. I'll test a bit more to find out specifics.

I actually got it randomly one day as well. After taking a few elective classes and then charisma class and it just appeared...

I had my high school Sim take some vacation day and do some Singing skill classes. Right before she reached level 10, she got the mixology certification. Maybe it's a bug?
