The Sims, The Sims 2, and The Sims 3 Zodiac Traits

Make another expansion packs for The Sims, The Sims 2, and The Sims 3 to update the existing zodiac system. Make it Zodiac Traits and Acquired Traits. The followings specifically refer to Zodiac Traits.

Make it three groups of traits: Sun Traits, Moon Traits, Rising Traits. There are the same 48 traits in all of the groups. Make the season be 7 days and the moon phase cycle be 8 days, just like in The Sims 4. Make each Sun Trait advance once every 14 hours, each Moon Trait advance once every 4 hours, each Rising Trait advance once every 30 minutes in the time system. When a Sim is born, he or she could have three different, or two same and one different, or three same traits. If a Sim has three same traits, then this type of trait of him or her is strong, and so on. Astrologers can give Sims good blind dates or bad ones.

There are three sets of 48 types of actions for Sims. The first set is for Sims who have three different traits, and they have three types of actions from this set according to what traits they have. The actions in the first set are weak. The second set is for Sims who have two same and one different traits, and they have two types of actions from this and the first set according to what traits they have. The actions in the second set are average. The third set is for Sims who have three same traits, and they have only one type of action from this set according to what traits they have. The actions in the third set are strong.

It's simple for playing with only 12 traits of Sun Signs (12 months of Earth's orbit), while it's complicated for playing with 366 traits of Sun Signs (366 days of Earth's orbit), Moon Signs (366 periods of Moon's orbit), Mercury Signs (366 periods of Mercury's orbit), Venus Signs (366 periods of Venus's orbit), Mars Signs, Jupiter Signs, Saturn Signs, and Rising Signs. Let's play with only 48 traits of only Sun Signs (48 weeks of Earth's orbit), Moon Signs (48 periods of Moon's orbit), and Rising Signs. For The 48 Periods, please refer to Personology (by Gary Goldschneider).

Alchemists can change objects into coins or into trash. A small-sized bronze coin is for 1 simoleon, silver coin for 5 simoleons, gold coin for 10 simoleons; a medium-sized bronze coin is for 50 simoleons, silver coin for 100 simoleons, gold coin for 500 simoleons; a large-sized bronze coin is for 1,000 simoleons, silver coin for 5,000 simoleons, gold coin for 10,000 simoleons. Sims can pick up coins from the ground and deposit them in a bank, a piggy bank, and a strong box. When Sims are going to use simoleons in African, European, Asian cities, they must change them into African, European, Asian dollars. The exchange rate fluctuates every day.

    Is the game not complex enough already? with Likes and Dislikes etc., not even meshing with previous software? If you are not sure what I mean. Regardless of what Likes and Dislikes are set, or pop up during actions (does X like XX yes or no) it does not seem to fully control what they do. They still only like to do the high fun things, even if you click No! Even to the point of their other needs red-lining. I often have to remove some things because they can become obsessed with them! Like or not Like!
    But in a way, that is their personality. Just like humans ...

    I see you're updating your zodiac sign ideas constantly, bumping them up.

    While again, I am not a believer in the zodiac signs affecting personality, I do have one question.

    If you have to tie each trait in The Sims 3 to a zodiac sign, how would you do it?

    You have shared that Loner is tied to Pieces sign, Genius to Aquarius sign, and Perfectionist to Libra, but how about the other traits?

    Here's a trait chart to remind what traits are in The Sims 3 (from DeviantArt by twinkletoes-97):

    And here's a link to The Sims Wiki to read what each trait does.
