Magic (The Sims: Makin' Magic): Difference between revisions

'''Magic''' is introduced in ''[[The Sims: Makin' Magic]]'', consisting of spells and [[magic charms|charms]] that can be obtained by combining [[Magic ingredient|ingredients]]. All magic and its required ingredients can be viewed in '''The Start Here Spellbook''', though [[adult]]s and [[child]]ren have separate spells and charms. Adult Spells are crafted with the '''Spellbound Wand Charger''' while adult charms are forged with the '''EverAfter Crafter'''. Children can craft both spells and charms with the '''MagiCo NeoMagical Newt'''. Most children's magic consists of charms, but kids have their own versions of the Get Happy, Smiley Face, and Enchant spells. The child versions of Get Happy and Smiley Face can also be used on adults.

When ''Makin' Magic'' is installed, all residential lots will be visited by the [[Mystery Man]], who will deliver the MagiCo Magical Starter Kit. The package contains a wand, 35 [[MagiCoins]], spellbook, wand charger, charm crafter{{confirm}}, [[A Hole in the Ground]], butter, toadstools and toad sweat. The ingredients allow for a single charge of the Toadification spell. The wand charger must be placed on a surface, so the package also contains a Truly Charming End Table, which the wand charger will be sitting on.

Spells are created with the Spellbound Wand Charger and charms with the EverAfter Crafter. Child Sims can create both spells and charms with the MagiCo NeoMagical Newt. Ingredients must be added in the correct order, which is listed in the family spellbook. To add ingredients, simply select the object and select "Add...". The pie menu will list all ingredients in the Sim's [[inventory]] that can be added to the combiner. Selecting "Read Label" will list the ingredients in the combiner, while "Empty Out" will remove the ingredients and place them back indiscard the Sim's inventoryingredients.

Once three ingredients have been added, the "Charge Wand" (for the Spellbound Wand Charger), "Make Magic" (for the MagiCo NeoMagical Newt), or "Make Charm" (for the EverAfter Crafter) interaction will become available. If the correct ingredients are used in the correct order, a spell or charm will be created. If the wrong ingredients or wrong order isare used, then nothing will be produced and the ingredients will be lost. The number of spell charges an adult will receive is based on the type of spell and the Sim's [[Cooking]] [[skill]]. The number of charges an adult charm receives depends on the type of charm and the maker's [[Mechanical]] skill. A higher skill level will result in more charges. Child spells only ever result in a single charge, while child charms always receive six charges.

|The clone will spontaneously combust if the caster is hungry when using the charm, or if the caster is unemployed or in the [[Fame]] career.

|The clone will eventually disappear. Also,While a Sim can marry a clone by using "The Big Question" spell on it, but the clone will still disappear after a while. The clone may not return from work if the lot is exited and re-entered while it is at work.

Each crystal takes two-to-three days to grow to full size, but can be used at any point. [[Child]]ren can only gain the 'Hot Foot', 'Magic Trick' and 'Teleport' abilities, and they will keep those abilities after using the Age of Instant charm. Using the Teleport and Extinguish abilities is considered casting, and may result in a visit from the Spellchecker, though it also counts toward the number needed for a new growth.

|Sim can magically summon a rainstorm to extinguish fires[[fire]]s on the lot.

The beanstalk begins as a short plant, with each segment counting as a separate growth. If the beanstalk has 17 segments, it can be climbed to access a [[Secret lot#The Sims: Makin' Magic|secret lot]] in the clouds. However, beanstalks have a pre-determined growth limit, meaning that some beanstalks will never grow to maximum height. Beanstalks on Magic  Town Community lots are not climbable. Beanstalks which grown on Sim-Owned Residential lots in Magic Town are climbable.

These flowers do not require water, and therefore never wilt and die. Strangely, they can also be used as an end table. Sims will not autonomously place objects on the flowers, but will use any object placed on them. Solar Powered GEraniums can only be placed outside.
