A Plumbot can gain [[Lifetime happiness|Lifetime Happiness]] points from high Mood if the Simulated Emotions or Sentience trait chips are installed.<ref>[http://www.carls-sims-3-guide.com/intothefuture/traitchips.php The Sims 3 Into the Future: Trait Chips] at Carl's Sims 3 Guide.</ref> They may also have wishes, even without specific trait chips, which can be promised and fulfilled for happiness as normal.
 
In the Q&A on July 30, 2013, it was mentioned that Plumbots do not age, but can have accidents. It was implied that Plumbots that are kept maintained will last indefinitely,<ref name="730LiveChat" />, which is true, as a Plumbot can only die by being crushed by a meteor or falling from the sky.
 
===Robot Quality===
Line 75:
 
====Maintenance====
Unlike Servos and [[SimBot]]s, Plumbots will require maintenance. The quality of a Plumbot affects how fast this decays (the higher the quality the slower it decays). If a Plumbot's maintenance bar is empty, it will begin to malfunction. Plumbots are able to maintain themselves.<ref name="730LiveChat" />. When a Sim or Plumbot with a medium or high Bot Building skill tunes a Plumbot, its quality may rise. The Plumbot's quality can only increase if it was lower than the tuner's Bot Building skill. A Plumbot that accrues 15,000 Lifetime Happiness Points can purchase the ''Maintenance Master'' reward, which freezes the Maintenance motive.

===Basics===
The very first of the five tabs is Basics. This is where the player chooses the Plumbot's name and gender. <ref name="730LiveChat">[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=K3H-Y9zYafQ The Sims 3 Live Broadcast - July 30, 2013] on "The Sims" YouTube Channel</ref>
