My sim has a trait from a pack I don't own
Hello all, I noticed today one of my sims has an extra trait "home turf" which I don't recognize. Looking it up online, it seems this trait is related to a location aspiration, but my Sim has the nat...

No, "Angler's Tranquility" is a special trait you will get after completing all of Angling Ace. These special traits are usually quite powerful. Just like "Fresh Chef" comes with completing the cooking aspiration and allows your food to never spoil.
By choosing to play Angling Ace, you immediately got the "Collector" trait. You only get that reward trait when you first create the sim in CAS. This is normally how you get "Home Turf". You have to select either "City Native", "StrangerVille Mystery", or "Beach Life" as a lifetime aspiration when you FIRST create the sim in CAS.
You have your initial 3 chosen ones, you have the reward "Collector" from choosing Angling Ace, not sure how you got home turf. It's not possible to get both "Collector" and "Home Turf" at the same time without either using cheat commands, mods, or it's a glitch.
Even if you have say Strangerville and choose "Strangerville Mystery" when you first create the sim, that will give you the "Home Turf" reward. However, you'll never be able to get the Collector trait because you have to choose it when you first create the sim. Even if you change aspirations later, you won't get that new reward. Getting both can only be done with cheat commands, mods, or it's a bug.
The trait is in your game just fine. Just because the trait is normally given on those 3 packs doesn't mean it's not in the game. It was likely released like I said, in a patch that came out before those packs. They just included the actual aspiration functionality in the pack but the reward was likely in the base game update. Just no way to give it to yourself without mods or cheat commands, which is simple.

@Psychotps it must be a glitch then, I haven't used any cheats (other than a money cheat perhaps in-game??? can this cause it?) or mods......
- @IrisuChan Money cheats like "money x", "rosebud", "kaching", or "motherlode" won't do it.
I don't know. The trait is obviously in your game. You have it. How you got it? Just a mystery I guess. Just reap the benefits I guess. - @IrisuChan I'm curious, if you go to CAS, do you have the location aspiration showing up as empty group or is there no group at all ?
@crinrict here's how it looks for me below. By the way I finally saw that "create a sim via story" option! So that one seems to give your sim more traits even in the very beginning? (Haven't tried it yet, but clicked the button to see what happened). I'll enjoy the home turf trait, for this sim it's not a problem. Just hope she doesn't get upset when not at home, since she also loves outdoors? (not sure if it works like that though)
- @IrisuChan I don't think it should give you extras but it's a potential bug source.
You didn't' start off by randomizing the Sim through the gallery either, right ?
