Political traits are assigned via the in-game trait picker. To assign a trait: Click on your active Sim. Select the Political Trait Picker interaction. Choose a political trait for your Sim NPC Political Trait Assignment NPC Sims are auto-assigned a political trait at random, based on criteria such as the world they live in, their personality traits, and their career. This feature ensures a diverse political landscape in your game. Political Self-Discovery System (**NEW) This optional module allows Sims to gradually discover their political identity over time, rather than having it manually assigned in CAS or through the trait picker. Your Sim’s political behavior is tracked and nudges them toward a compatible political trait. For example, a Sim who frequently protests, donates to charity, and discusses wealth redistribution may start leaning toward a more progressive or socialist identity. Once a strong enough pattern emerges, the Sim will experience a “Self Discovery” moment, receiving a political trait and related buffs. This feature can be enabled or disabled in the EA settings OR by removing the self discovery module depending on your preferred gameplay style. Political Attraction Preferences Sims now have romantic compatibility based on political preferences. Watch as opposites attract or repel! Political preferences can only be assigned in Create-a-Sim (CAS) Political Compatibility Sims now have hidden political compatibility scores with others, based on their ideological traits. This influences how smoothly conversations go, how quickly friendships form, and how often conflicts arise. Ideological Soulmates – These Sims see eye-to-eye on nearly everything. Strong relationships form quickly.Shared Political Ground – A solid baseline of agreement, with room for friendly debate.Politically Neutral – No strong alignment or conflict. Relationships progress normally.Politically Incompatible – Differing views create friction and reduce the effectiveness of social interactions.Politically Polar Opposites – These Sims clash at a core level. Expect frequent tension, awkwardness, or even rivalry. 🔧 Customizable Settings: Political Compatibility settings are now saved in a .cfg file that is automatically generated in your Saves > KemZima_PoliticalWorld folder. This file ensures your preference persists across saves and game restarts. ⚠️ Don’t delete the .cfg file unless you want to reset compatibility settings to default. 🛠️ Toggle Compatibility On/Off In-Game: Want to disable this feature entirely for a particular save? You can now do so via the Political World > Settings Menu in-game. This allows for flexible storytelling, whether you want a politically charged social landscape or a more neutral one. New Interactions Your Sims can: Debate various politics topics Deliver specific Political speeches to the masses to win support. The mod introduces over 200 new buffs, adding depth and variety to gameplay. These buffs are tied to political traits, interactions, and events, offering unique emotional responses and gameplay dynamics. Political Intensity System (**NEW) Not all Sims engage with politics the same way. With the new Political Intensity System, your Sims are assigned a level of political engagement that evolves over time and shapes how they interact with the world around them. There are three intensity levels: 🔎 Special Note on Apolitical Sims: Apolitical Sims are the only trait type limited to being Politically Disengaged. This reflects their unique stance: they hold opinions but actively reject political identity or intense involvement. It wouldn't make sense for a Sim to be both Apolitical and Politically Passionate (that would be like passionately yelling about how much they don’t care). For this reason, their intensity is capped at the low tier. You can manually set a Sim’s intensity level via cheats, or let the game adjust it automatically based on behaviour. Intensity affects interactions outcomes and buff appearance and how often political topics arise. Political Skill The Political World Mod introduces the Political Influence Skill, enabling Sims to navigate the political landscape. As Sims progress through the ten levels of this skill, they unlock new interactions and abilities that increase their influence: Level 1: Sims can research politics on the computer. Level 2: Self-reflection helps Sims gain influence and strengthen their stance. Level 3: Share political memes to influence others humorously. Level 4: Post political rants on social media to attract attention. Level 5: Conduct a Political Census to discover political traits in the world.

Level 9: Spread misinformation to strategically influence views. Level 10: Use advanced influence to cancel other Sims and shape social dynamics. Political Census When a Sim conducts a Political Census, they can view the number of Sims with each political trait in the world. This feature provides valuable insights into the political landscape, helping players strategize and understand the dominant ideologies in their game. Political Gurus Meet the Political Gurus! Each political trait is associated with a pre-made Sim guru who serves as a mentor and ideological figurehead. These gurus randomly appear at specific venues and can help your Sim build political influence, gain buffs, and form alliances.
