Sim has grouch moodlet without grouch trait

Thanks for the additional info.

Hello all,

If any of you are still encountering this on the latest game version (without mods), would you be willing to share your save file(s)?

If so, please send me a private message with a link to the file. Instructions can be found here: http://x.ea.com/74420

Thanks!

I haven’t seen it so far but I’ll let you know!

I just got this! I don't have the grouch trait either. Edit to incl: He was in the Magic Realm at the time socializing with a randomly generated townie.

hi, i'm getting this issue too, ps5 with Get To Work, City Living, Eco Lifestyle, Businesses and Hobbies, Cats and Dogs, Werewolves, Vampires, Parenthood, Toddler Stuff, and Paranormal Stuff. happened when my teen sim was chatting with a random townie who may have been a mixologist autonomously in the Spice District karaoke bar in San Myshuno

I had this same thing happen to me with a new sim I created just today. I’m playing on PC, no mods or cc, and I’ve never had the Grouch Trait on this sim—I don’t even own it. 

I just started a new game, fresh save, no mods. I have one grouch in the house. When the grouch gets the "is this... kindness?" uncomfortable moodlet, everyone in the house gets it even though the rest are not grouches. 

I have had this issue before. What worked for me was using a cheat to remove one of their normal CAS traits, using a cheat to equip the grouch trait, then un-equipping it with the cheat and re-equipping the old trait.

Don’t do it in CAS it must be with the cheat to work. It’s almost like the game thought they had the grouch trait even tho it wasn’t listed.

It’s happened a few different times including when using the trait change reward potion which I feel always messes up the traits and doesn’t do it properly so the only way I change traits is thru cheats now.
