Object Auras
These are items found, bought, or earned in the game that can emit an playful aura in the area around the object. Players can choose to enable or disable the aura at any time. Once enabled, a Sim can interact with the object, through viewing or using it, and they will earn a +# playful moodlet. Whether their mood changes to playful or not depends on the other moodlets affecting the Sim at that time.
