Things You Didn't Know!

Was just starting a new experimental save with a sim (Cayden) who has slob, geek and loves outdoors - wanted to see if Cayden would be offered a trait swap from slob to neat due to change in gameplay habits ie cleaning up, putting books away, washing up…. I’d started him in a micro home with the well-rounded scenario to quickly get some aspiration bonuses.  To finish another level on eco-innovator aspiration, he joined the civil designer career.  First work from home assignment was to acquire recycled materials.  Suddenly Cayden was all tense and had a tense moodlet with the recycling symbol on it.  

It read:

Tense +2.  

Forced to recycle.

(From being lazy or a slob)

I bet they just throw this stuff in the dump.

8 hours.

I just love the way some of these descriptions and lore are written.

I hadn’t thought about the fact that the career was in opposition to Cayden’s trait as well.  Poor Cayden might be in for a rather tense period until he gets offered that trait swap.  I’m not sure I will be able to keep causing him this stress long enough for the trait swap to be offered.
