[GRO] Child's confidence level does not change

The confidence level in the simology panel for children is not updating. My sim just aged up into a teen and has the High Self-Esteem trait (that you get from having high confidence as a child) but they had the Neutral Confidence trait in their simology panel as a child. The confidence trait stayed neutral the entire time they were a child, it never changed to high or low. I am having the same issue with another child sim now. 

Playing on Mac.

  • sydschuppthere is an open bug report under the archived area for this issue. It started after the pre Life & Death update and I too have experienced this in my game. The only plus is it doesn't seem to affect children getting the high self esteem trait, but it does make it impossible to check (apart from my children tend to be confident a lot from 'growing self esteem' regardless of the 'trait' being stuck on neutral.

    I am experiencing this as well. It seems like just a visual glitch, as it doesn't affect getting the high self esteem trait, but it makes it difficult to complete challenges. And tbh is just really annoying.

  • I'm also seeing this in my save but it wasn't just a visual glitch for me.  The Neutral Confidence trait was all that showed through childhood even though she walked around with a confident moodlet most of the time.  When I aged her up a little early via the birthday cake she did NOT get the High Self-Esteem trait.  That truly surprised me because I decided to age her up before the actual day for a birthday because she had already completed five aspirations, was an A student and confident most of the time.  I was ready for her to move on to high school.  

    The only thing I can think of to account for her not getting the High Self-Esteem trait is that I aged her up early, rather than waiting for the game to tell me it was her birthday.  This may have been visual only for others but that's not my experience.

  • Having this issue, even if I get the High Self-Esteem trait, it is always on neutral as a child.
