Post by tangerine »

I don't want to start a new thread for what is probably a silly question, but where it says "points needed" per orb, does that refer to XPs or something else? I'm trying to earn orbs in my secondary game but none of the XPs per task in my game match anything listed here and they don't match any in the spreadsheet I created a couple years ago when I was earning orbs in my main game. Heck, the XPs aren't even the same for Sims completing the same action at the same house on the same instruments. Is confusing and frustrating.

ETA: I'm wondering if the different XPs I'm seeing in my game have to do Sims being at different stages of the corresponding hobby.

The „points needed“ that count for the Life Dreams are shown with a little cloud. If it‘s a very short task you may not see a number, but it will add up at the Life Dream tracker as you do more tasks.

Usually you see less XP if your sims are not at home or if they aren’t fully inspired. I don‘t think it has to do with the stages they’re at their hobby.
