What the Charmer trait changes in play

Toddlers with the Charmer trait build social skills faster due to a ×1.15 hidden multiplier. This effect multiplies together with other active skill boosts. The game also checks for this trait during 2 interactions, Share the Love and Talk to Stranger.

This trait adds 3 moodlets to gameplay, and each has a weight of 1. The Charmed and New Friends moodlets both give a Happy emotion for 2 hours, or 120 Sim minutes. The Where Is Everyone? moodlet causes a Sad emotion and has no timer, so it stays while its cause lasts.
