[RL] Scandal Icon not going away when cleared/Moodlet time getting longer
I have this purple exclamation point in a cloud that periodically flashes. Now, I thought it had something to do with a scandal that my Sim got involved in, since I think that's when it started. In any case, the scandal has since cleared, but I'm still getting the repeating purple exclamation point. Can anyone shed some light on this... sort of making me batty that it won't go away. Note by crinrict: Temporary Workaround can be found here: [RL] Scandal Icon not going away after cleared scandal | EA Forums - 13185522 Use the following cheat (does not disable achievements as you don't need testingcheats): traits.remove_Trait Trait_Hidden_Scandal_Secret_VFX
