Disabling Seasions But Keeping its Stuff - Want to disable weather or make plants in season year-round? You can do so with my new Seasons Tuner Mod
Improving Sims 4: The past month, I've spent every day tinkering The Sims 4, making quality of life improvements, gameplay changes, and new difficulty settings for the game. If you'd like to learn more about my project, visit the post on Patreon where you can download it now.
Physics Description: Whether you like to think big or think small, the Physics degree has got you covered. From subatomic particles to the edges of our universe, this degree will help build the handiness, robotics, and rocket science skills along with a fascination for the way things truly work.
Available at School: Foxbury
Requirements: Being accepted into one of the two schools for a distinguished degree in physics is not guaranteed, but having the following skills and factors in your favor will make it more likely. You begin with a 5/20 chance. This is multiplied by:
| Factor | Skill Level? | Multiplier |
|---|---|---|
| High School | "A" Student | 2x |
| High School | "B" Student | Flat, no gain or loss |
| High School | "C" to "F" Student | From 0.5 (C) to 0.25 multiplier to score with D-F. |
| Logic | 3+ | x2 |
| Handiness | 2-3 | x2 |
| Robotics | 2-3 | x2 |
| Rocket Science | 2-3 | x2 |
| Handiness | 4-6 | x4 |
| Robotics | 4-6 | x4 |
| Rocket Science | 4-6 | x4 |
| Handiness | 7-10 | x8 |
| Robotics | 7-10 | x8 |
| Rocket Science | 7-10 | x8 |
Additionally, Sims can flaunt fame for a x2 multiplier (but will have it dropped to 0.25 on failure). Sims who donate can also see a big multiplier of x16, but a failure there is the worst of the bunch (0.125). Having a multiplier less than 1 is dropping the score a lot.
Ultimately, your final score will determine if you are accepted in to a distinguised program. There is a non-distinguished version of every degree in Discover University. If you fail to get into a distinguished program, you can take the regular version at the other school. There are caveats, so see the degrees guide for more detailed information. It also explains the difference between with and without honors.
A degree in Physics will have to start higher in the following careers. You'll also receive a signing bonus.
With Honors (>3.9 GPA)
Distinguished Degrees offer higher starting bonuses, better starting positions in careers and are further amplified if you can manage to do so with honors (having a greater than 3.9 GPA):
With Honors (>3.9 GPA)
You can cheat yourself a Distinguished Physics Degree by using the traits.equip_trait traitname cheat. Here are the ones you need for this degree. Click my guide to cheating in Discover University to learn more.

My sim graduated from Foxbury with a 4.0 with a degree in Physics. But the only signing bonuses offered were for Space Ranger and Scientist. Nothing for Engineering. I thought I did something wrong. I guess it’s a glitch.
Same here
I should add that my Sim had a distinguished degree…
