I was in the traits list in MasterController and noticed this after installing Generations. A hidden trait, "Lazy." Anyone have a clue what it does or how to get it?

I understand all of the hidden traits except Private Eye, and this new one.

I think as it goes for all hidden trait, you have to add it yourself. Let me try MC and see if I can find this trait and see if there is a description on it.

If it is under L, then I don't see it. Maybe we have to enable something to get that trait to appear. But without a description, my guest is as good as it yours on what exactly it does. We all know what "lazy" means, but what it means in the dictionary and what EA assigned it to be are 2 very different things.

While at it, I can't help to notice "Incontinent" trait with the icon of someone ... peeing himself? It is what it is. One thing is, putting my sim into CAS Edit (via MC), I don't see how I could add all those new traits either. No "Incontinent", no "Rebellious" and "Nurturing". I wonder if this is Mastercontroller's fault.

I think Incontinent is a trait added by awesomemod.

As for the Lazy, Nuts, I have no idea.

Hidden traits can't be applied via CAS (I suspect that's why they're called hidden ), so you won't get any description, unfortunately.
But I can tell you about Incontinent. That's a custom trait of AwesomeMod.
And PrivateEye is a trait for Private Investigators of, I think, level 7 or 8 and up. It will give you the "Sneak here" walk interaction just like the Burglar trait does. Maybe it also does something else, but I haven't found that out as I quit playing that career as soon as my Sim got that trait.

It's listed as EP5 and also as only applying to cats, dogs and horses, so it's clearly just preemptive coding for Pets.

I see. Thanks KiwiTea.

I wonder if my game would implode if I tried to apply it to a sim.

Maybe they'll begin to roll on the floor and pee into the corners of your house, but most probably nothing will happen, just like in the case of AwesomeMod's many custom traits that haven't been activated for the peasants yet.

Added by AwesomeMod? I totally didn't expect that.

Yeah, Pescado added some custom traits to awesomemod. As babele mentioned, not all of them are activated, there are some he uses for his own game that he hasn't made usable for everyone.

We learn something everyday. One bad thing about Pescado is that he is not very good at documenting his product. The documentation txt files on AM download page is no where near enough, and I am still searching for all the commands AM has (such as outfitcp) and their syntax (as in, how to use them).

Just looked through the traits list and "Lazy" is there but it is flagged for cats, dogs and horses looks like they added a bit of code ready pets, so this one is EA's
