Egyptian Culture Hidden Trait
« on: July 05, 2011, 03:14:46 PM »
I've read on Wiki that the Egyptian Culture Hidden Trait has the following options for a sim who has it, or a sim who has inherated it from one of their parents:

■Sings Middle Eastern songs autonomously.
■Egyptian-themed idle animations

What is a idle animation? I have a child who's father is from Egypt, but I don't know what idle is.

"Idle" means inactive or not working. In the U.S., we say a car idles when it's sitting at a stoplight with the engine running. An idle animation is something the Sim does when not working or skilling -- like a Sim with the handy trait tossing the wrench around.

There was a discussion about the three culture traits sometime ago, and Pam noted that the Egyptian-themed idle animation is probably drinking from the canteen. There are a few others as far as I know, but not much to have a significant effect on the Sim. The Egyptian hidden culture trait has actually the least benefits of all three.
