    Child of the Ocean sims also get a sad moodlet when there’s mounted fish on the wall that’ll say “Noooo, Fish Friend!”

    Another thing about Unflirty sims is that you can flirt with them and even build up a romantic relationship with them, it just takes a really high friendship level first. It's part of why I love the update that came with High School Years where you can edit sims' romantic and woohoo interests; now I can *actually* have an aromantic/asexual sim!

    • @hannahbate1301

    Lactose Intolerant Sims can also click on Dairy items and can “Wonder if it’s Worth it”. As someone who is lactose intolerant, it’s pretty accurate.

    Adventurous sims get negative moodlets from having quick meals and a positive reaction to gourmet meals and love trying new foods. Proper sims also have a great deal of loyalty to their jobs and don't like changing careers. They get happy moodlets when promoted because of this and can become tense if they switch careers.

    • @sakurasensations4786
      @sakurasensations4786 Рік тому +7

      I think loyal sims also prefer not to switch careers. Or partners. I know for sure they also get a happy moodlet from promotion for that too though! Huh. Proper and Loyal are kind of similar in the career area.

      Edit: I forgot what a quick meal in game was 😂 it actually makes sense, my bad, I got confused
      Old comment, not relevant anymore: Why would an adventurous sim get a negative moodlet after eating a quick meal? If you are hiking you usually eat a ham sandwich, not a gourmet lobster

    Green Fiends also get an Embarrassed moodlet when they're bills come in, especially if they aren't doing anything to mitigate them like have generators or solar panels. Also, Recycle Disciples will randomly "recycle" items from their own household if they haven't recycled for a while and have had a tense moodlet from recycling for a bit. You really need to watch them.

    Fun fact about Maker Sims: they also get a happy moodlet when finishing a knitted item. I haven't tested cross-stitiching yet but knitting definitely counts. I had a sim who was a Maker but I was doing rags to riches with her and we were making money by selling things on Plopsy so that's how I discovered it. Nice cross-pack compatability with that one, imo.

    Nice vid as always! I love the "High maintenance" trait. It's really hilarious. 🤣
    I may add things for 2 trait.
    Sims with "Adventurous" trait will get bored if eat quick meal and be inspired if eat gourmet cooking meals. They also get bored when do things they have very high skills.
    Sims with "Proper" trait will get angry if they're in a house with no shoes rule and see someone wearing shoes. It might happen to another occasion as seeing Sims naked, I'm not sure.

    Well... I made a high maintenance Sim one time. Let's just say I did not know that there were different levels of anger and that Sims could die from it. I thought letting him rest or take a relaxing bath would help him "calm down." T'was not to be. My heart sank when he dropped dead in his hallway. My bad! Needless to say, I have never made a "high maintenance" Sim again. 😅🤦🏾‍♀️

      I consider traits like those complementary traits, traits that have a similar theme but different ways of going about it. I really find sims with two similar traits to be a lot of fun compaired to 3 decently different traits. Others i enjoy are Animal Enthusiast & Rancher, Goofball & Cringe, as well as Proper & Snob.
