The Sims 3 Life States Dynasty Challenge

Nope. There was a teen, child and a toddler, and the game wasn't happy with that. But thanks for the ideas for next time. I didn't know you could see the family tree before they moved in.

My founder has had a nooboo who is a ghost (like the founder) but is also a fairy (like his dad) can I count him as the heir or will I have to have another nooboo?

He can be the heir yes.

[Shirin]

Can he, Lena? I thought he'd have to be a different color of ghost, and that if he's the same color, he's ineligible.

Edit: My googlefu fails, I thought I saw a post about it, but now I can't find it.

[Anna33]

Wait so can he be the heir? This is the nooboo he has fairy sparkles and is an invisible ghost.

[LenaLJ]

I would say he can because he is counting as a Fairy instead.

[Anna33]

Right thanks Lena and Shirin for clearing that up.

[Shirin]

Fair enough, Lena I agree with that.

He is a ghost fairyboo which is a different life state to the founder. Different lifestate to both his parents which is pretty cool. So congratulations you have a very unique heir.

Thanks. Wait does that mean that if he has a nooboo in the future and it is just a fae boo does that mean that is also a different lifestate?

[ratchie]

Yes that is correct.

Do I play him with only 4 traits, or do I add one via cheats, or shall I do something else entirely?  I searched around, and while I seem to recall a ruling on this sort of thing for a different dynasty/challenge, I can't find any ruling regarding NPCs with fewer traits than they should have specifically for the Life States Dynasty.

Thanks!

You have to take him as he is with his missing trait.

Does this go for heirs as well?

[Nutella]

Your heirs should never have 4 traits. 

Trait #1 and #2 when born, trait #3 when aging up to child, trait #4 when aging up to teen, trait #5 when aging up to young adult. 

[bluebelle]

Sometimes even when you add the trait they lose it. I just wanted to be sure you can use the cheat to give them back the lost trait like in the Immortal Dynasty.

[Shirin]

@Bluebelle

Yes, in this situation we allow the cheat to bring the trait back.
