In the Zone

A Sim is in the zone

"Be in the Zone" is an autonomous interaction gained when a Sim reaches the final level of any hobby. Being "in the zone" causes the Sim to glow with a white light whenever performing an action pertaining to the hobby they have reached the maximum level in. However, it appears that Sims cannot be "in the zone" while in areas where enthusiasm cannot be built.

Effects of being in the zone

A Sim is sewing in the zone
  • Sim glows with a white light
  • When using the piano or violin, Sim changes into Formal outfit, glows with white light, and an invisible audience claps
  • When using ballet barre, the Sim will hear music and an audience clapping.
  • When reading books from the book shelf, a tune relating to that certain genre plays (e.g. a bouncy, happy, childish song that would suit a kid's show plays whenever the Sim reads a children's book).
  • When playing basketball, an invisible audience begins cheering.
  • When operating the model train set, the sound of real train can be heard.
  • Sim gains skill points faster
  • Sim completes random action/build/make faster when using an object that puts them in the zone i.e.: using the Robot Crafting Station with maxed Tinkering Hobby [confirmation needed]
  • Sim gets paid more when playing for tips [confirmation needed]
  • Needs decrease slower when in the zone

Glitches and errors

  • There is a glitch in the game when Bigfoot reaches maximum enthusiasm in any hobby. Sometimes, the game will say that an error is happening with Bigfoot. If the player chooses to ignore it, the Bigfoot will still be "in the zone" and glow with a white light, but will not receive any effects of being in the zone.
