Object Auras
These are items found, bought, or earned in the game that can emit a sadness 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 +# sadness moodlet. Whether their mood changes to sad or not depends on the other moodlets affecting the Sim at that time.
