Advanced Technology

With time and practice, Sims will gain enough Advanced Technology skill to master manu futuristic objects! A Sim with low Advanced Technology skill is more prone to failures, but with a higher skill a Sim will become more successful in using Advanced Technology objects. Additionally, more interactions will unlock as a Sim masters the skill. Obtaining higher skill reduces the chance of Time Sickness from occurring in addition to unlocking new future timelines.

Sims will gain Advanced Technology skill at an even greater rate while in Oasis Landing. To start gaining the skill, simply use any of the following objects: Drink Synthesizer, Holographic Computer, Food Synthesizer, Jetpack, Hoverboard, Dream Pod, Sonic Shower, Air Tube Elevator, and Time Portal.

Bot Building

The Bot Building Skill is perfect for Sims who like to design and create mechanical companions. The Bot Workshop is the main tool for developing your Sims' Bot Building Skill.

Designing and creating Nanites is the easiest was to build your Sims' Bot Building Skill. Nanites can also be found and gathered in the future. Reverse-Engineering a Nanite will break it down into components for more advanced Bot Building creations as well as teach your Sim how to create that type of Nanite.

Just like Nanites, Sims can design and create Trait Chips at the Bot Workshop. Trait Chips give advanced functionality and behaviour to the most Advanced Bot Building Skill Creation: Plumbots.

Plumbots are robotic Sims from the future! Sims can create their own Plumbots from the Bot Workshop or purchase them from the Bot Emporium in Oasis Landing. Although Plumbots are created without any chips installed, Sims can add Trait Chips to enhance their Plumbots in all sorts of different ways.

Adding and removing Trait Chips to Plumbots is a snap when your Sims Adjust Trait Chips. You can add or remove Trait Chips to your Plumbots at any time, they can even adjust their own Trait Chips! Plumbots start with only a few Trait Chip slots, but can have more unlocked with a higher Bot Building Skill and by using Upgrade Trait Chip Slots.

All Plumbots also have a quality level determined by the Bot Building Skill of their creator. Plumbots of a higher quality will have their maintenance and battery power drain at a slower rate. In addition, they will be more valuable should your Sim decide to sell them.

Create A Bot

Plumbots are fully customizable members of your household! Creating a Bot is much like creating a Sim. If you don't like the initial random Bot you have been given, you can select a Pre-made Bot or generate a new random one. You can customize all the physical attributes of your Bot, from Heads to Hover Jets!

You can enter Create A Style to give your Plumbot a truly customized look. Heads, torsos, arms and legs can all be styled to create a unique Bot of your very own. You can of course Save your Plumbots to the Bin or Share them with others!

When you are happy with the appearance of your Plumbot, the Accept button will take you back to Live Mode. Don't stop there though. Your Bot needs a personality to go with their shiny new chassis. Use the Bot Workshop to create Trait Chips, and install them to give your Plumbot a mind of their own!
