When hovering over the skills gained on Age Up Trait Selection screen, dialogue is same as toddler dialogue So I decided if there was ever a reason for me to learn to mod this game, it was for this specifically. Hasn't it ever infuriated you that the Toddler Skills evolve to help with Children's Skills, yet when that rambunctious social butterfly ages into a teen, suddenly they can hardly speak, and god forbid they set foot on a treadmill, right? I know it bugged me quite a bit, especially since the only way to build adult skills as a child is to totally max the child skill out and 'Ain't nobody got time for 'dat'.
(Please note, it's not a 1:1 ratio, and more details on the values can be found below. Specifically, the Creativity Skill will turn into the Painting Skill, the Motor Skill will turn into the Fitness Skill, the Mental Skill will turn into the Logic Skill, and the Social Skill will turn into the Charisma Skill. Kids skills will now contribute to an equivalent adult skill when they age up from Child to Teen, the higher the skill level, the further in the adult skill they'll be on age up. No longer will those 7 motor skill levels go to waste on their birthday, instead, they'll be put towards the equivalent adult skill when aging up to a teen. This simple little mod allows children's skills to actually mean something when they age up into a teen.
