Waffle Explains It All: A Series of Deep Dives of Game Mechanics

Ooh... That is cool and interesting.

I have also made guides on these forums on the tuning file finds, for example:

• List of Traits
• Compatibility & Self-Discovery systems
• Ultimate NPC Making Guide
• Some interest threads on TV Channels and Community Closeness (might be messed up due to being formatted in the old forums)
• Some Life & Death cheats I haven't seen mentioned anywhere else...

Take a look at them and if you see anything that needs changing, let me know!

Though some things I have to say:

• The title "Why Your Sim Who Just Pet A Dog Wants To Become A Cat Lover" kind of makes me want to ask "Have you experienced this in game?". The reason is that according to my findings, sims who interacts with dogs get a special moodlet that blocks the Self-Discovery moment for Cat Lover trait. Same thing for cats and Dog Lover. However, in both cases, sims could still get suggested Animal Enthusiast trait.
• On Eco Footprint though, I remember that the developers said in the live stream that this is intended that plants in the Green neighborhoods take longer to grow... Someone correct me if I'm wrong though...
