Question about Lot Traits

So I am doing a baby challenge and enabled the "On Ley Line" lot trait. Does this only work if the baby is conceived on the lot? I ask because I had my sim risky woohoo with one of her men in a bush at the Narwhal Arms one night, and right after she started getting that baby bottle thought bubble above her head, so I used MC Command Center to check and it said she was pregnant with twins! She does not have the fertile trait so it isn't that.

Does the ley line trait work away from home? Or is this just coincidence? (She had just had twins that day too, lol. But those were conceived on the lot and born on the lot as well).

Now I'm very likely going to have four toddlers at once....fun! 😊

  • The trait only affects conception on the lot it's on. But of course, it's possible to have twins without any fertility bonuses.

    ...HOW? I can barely handle twins.
    I'd have child services showing up within a day.

  • Hello
    If your sim has been watching the kids channel, that can increase the chance of her having twins.
  • rosemow yeah I've done that intentionally before, but this time it was literally right after she woohooed. I guess I just need to chalk it up to chance!

    And stormkeep, I've never had four at once but have had three at once, it was manageable but pretty hectic. I'm hoping I can level up the first set of twins' skills before the babies age up but we'll see. The second set of twins was just born and the older twins are at level 2 for all of their skills so....hoping I can do it! Their dad might get invited over to help, lol
  • @ladysweettart...wait...so 4 at once AND a single parent? I don't know whether to be impressed with you or ashamed of my own shortcomings.
  • @Stormkeep, no need to feel ashamed, I use the pause button, camera find, and action queue quite often lol. And try to keep them all on a routine.
  • Well there is definitely something wonky going on with my game. This time I had her try for baby at the gym (I placed a closet there), I intentionally didn't want her trying at home since she had two sets of twins in a row (and no teens yet to help), and I check with MC Command Center and it said she was pregnant with triplets! Needless to say I used MCCC to change the offspring count to one....no way should she be conceiving twins followed by triplets away from the lot WITHOUT the fertility trait.
