NPC aspirations
Does the game even recognize them? I'm currently trying to complete a tasks where one of its requirements is having an NPC with a specific aspiration.

@kusurusu Hello! I believe all sims have an aspiration. They are assigned to game-generated NPCs. You can also create sims, give them an aspiration and then mark them as unplayed through Manage Worlds / Manage Households. However, unplayed sims will not usually autonomously attempt to complete the aspirations. Could you provide more detail about the task you mentioned and what it is you need to do exactly?
@JonaO703 A mod where a Sim learns about someone else's aspiration (like they do with traits) - would this even be possible? Or is the game currently too limited to read out aspirations of Sims not in the same household?
@kusurusu I'm not a mod'er so a lot of this is over my head. Since there is no current mechanism for learning a NPC's aspiration along with traits, I think it might be difficult. However, if you could pinpoint where aspirations reside in the code for any sim, I think it should be possible to write code that will extrapolate that information. I know @simvasion spent a lot of time looking at the code and fine tuning mods for the spa day aspirations. Hopefully, they don't mind me tagging them because they're probably in the best position to respond to your questions.
