SIMS 4 - SUPER KEENER TRAIT V6 - NOW WITH WANTS - BASE GAME

Added 2022-10-21 19:55:39 +0000 UTC

UPDATE 20MAR2023: I have added an Extreme version of this mod! The current skill modifiers are set at 1.3, and they still are in the Regular version. The Extreme version now has skill modifiers set at 1.7. Skill modifiers multiply how fast your sim will learn skills. Both files are in the zip, but only install one! If you have one in your game and you want to switch, simply delete the trait from your mods folder and install the other version. Make sure the file you download has the date of 20MAR2023 if you want the Extreme version as both versions are in that zip file. Thank you!

UPDATE: This mod is compatible with the MARCH2023 patch.

Thanks to Zerbu's Mod Constructor, I am finally able to add wants to traits again!

This version of the Super Keener Trait has been completely refurbished, and deserves its very own post. The trait includes skills, wants, and autonomy from several game packs, including Base Game, but they are not required to use the trait. You simply shouldn't get anything popping up if you don't have the relevant pack.

The Super Keener Trait V6 can still be applied to sims aged child-elder.

CAS trait picker blurb:

"You love to learn and you do it well! You tend to require less time than other sims to build your mental and social skills, and maybe a few others. Genius? Extremely capable? Pff! You are next level!"

Found in Lifestyles category. I know I swap back and forth between categories, but I found this version fits best in Lifestyles.

Right off the bat, your sim will be focused, and they will always have the focused moodlet, because Super Keeners are always ready to learn! I call this, In the Zone.

There is also now a proximity buff called Like minded individual alert! and your Super Keener will be happy to be around other intelligent sims. This happens under certain circumstances, and the list is long, but basically around geeks, geniuses, sims in certain careers at level 3, Honors graduates, etc, as long as your sim is interacting with the sim with one of the required traits, your sim will receive a Happy +1 moodlet.

Now, for the nitty gritty.

⬇️If you'd prefer to just download the trait, feel free to skip all this information!

All affected skils are multiplied by 1.3 in the Regular version, which means your Super Keener sim will learn 1.3 times faster than other sims without the trait.

All affected skils are multiplied by 1.7 in the Extreme version, which means your Super Keener sim will learn 1.7 times faster than other sims without the trait.

Here are the skills:

Several autonomy/commodity factors have been increased by 1.5, while a few have been decreased by half (0.5). Basically, your sim will be pushed to autonomously do certain actions, or will receive more benefits from certain states.

The three states which have been reduced by half are:

BORED (it will take more for your sim to be bored)
Your sim will want to autonomously do BRO related actions less
ALIEN MEMORY ERASE COOLDOWN (your sim will recover faster)
OWNABLE VET CLINIC CUSTOMER WAIT TIME

The states affected in a positive manner multiplied by 1.5 are:

WANTS - wants are things that your sim wants to do and receives satisfaction points for. They show up in the little thought bubbles above your sim's head in the UI section of the screen.
