[[File:TS4 Servo.png|left|40px]]'''Servo''' is a robot
In a sense, ''[[The Sims 2 (PSP)]]'' has Servos in the game, though the Sim-built AIs may just be referred to as "robots" built by one of the NPC Sims in the storyline. While playing through the game with the main character, the player may encounter one. As the game is mission based,
Servo does not return in ''[[The Sims 3]]'' base game. ''[[The Sims 3: Ambitions]]'' introduces the [[SimBot]] in its place; since the original worlds of ''The Sims 3'' were placed before either ''The Sims'' or ''The Sims 2'' (in the [[Timeline of events in The Sims series|in-game timeline]]), the SimBot could be considered the predecessor to Servo. ''[[The Sims 3: Into the Future]]'' includes a customizable robot called a [[Plumbot]]. Since [[Oasis Landing]] is placed in the future relative to ''The Sims 2''—and most worlds in ''The Sims 3'', it is conceivable that the Plumbot could be considered the distant successor to Servo.

}}Servos are bought from the Electronics->Other section of [[Buy mode]], and cost a whopping [[Simoleons|§]]15,000, but will walk around the house cleaning up messes and repairing broken items, replacing the [[gardener]], [[maid]], and [[repairman]] services for a one-time cost. While Servos will clean messes and repair broken objects whenever they are activated, they only appear to do the gardening on the gardener's every-three-days schedule. Normally, Servos do not interact with Sims, but a Servo that has nothing else to do may attempt to converse with or entertain visitors. A Servo may also attempt to give backrubs to Sims in the active household when their [[comfort]] motive is low.▼

A Servo will change hats depending on whether it's "cooking", cleaning, repairing, or gardening. When "cooking", a Servo will wear a chef's hat; when cleaning, it will wear a maid's hat; when repairing, it will wear a repairman's cap; and when gardening, it will wear a straw sun-hat. (This may be a play on the idea that someone who does many different jobs "wears many hats".)

After a Servo is finally built, the Servo will be in dormant mode, and can be either sold or activated. As in [[Servo#The Sims 2|''The Sims 2: Open for Business'']], a Servo can be activated as male or female, but has no [[gender]] until it is activated. Male and female Servo look the same, the difference between male and female Servo is mainly in their body language and how they are referred to in the game with gendered words ("he" or "she", "actor" or "actress", and so on). A newly-activated Servo has random [[Trait (The Sims 4)|traits]] and a random [[Aspiration (The Sims 4)|aspiration]], but this can be changed by reprogramming them.
It should also be noted that Servos do not have access to every trait that a human Sim does, due to not being organic. Servos cannot be given the [[child of the islands]], [[child of the ocean]], [[foodie]], [[Glutton (The Sims 4)|glutton]], [[squeamish]], or [[Vegetarian (The Sims 4)|vegetarian]] traits.
A deactivated Servo can be purchased using the <code>bb.showhiddenobjects</code> [[buydebug]] cheat.
===Features===
[[File:TS4 Servo Hovering.png|250px|thumb]]
Servos can clean, garden, repair broken objects,
Servos have special chat interactions with electronic devices and kitchen appliances as well as the ability to flirt with them. Servos only have four needs and do not age. Getting electric shocks or being struck by the lightning (''[[The Sims 4: Seasons]]'') will only energize them for 2 hours and fill their charge need, though the Zipzap spell from the ''[[The_Sims_4:_Realm_of_Magic|Realm of Magic]]'' game pack does not.▼
If ''[[The Sims 4: Get to Work|Get to Work]]'' is installed, male Servos can get pregnant from an [[alien abduction]].
▲Servos have special chat interactions with electronic devices and kitchen appliances as well as the ability to flirt with them. Servos only have four needs and do not age. Getting electric shocks will only energize them and fill their charge need.
▲Servos also have the ability to engage hover mode as an alternative way of running.
====Enhancements====
Servos have a hidden sequence of enhancements, which has 10 levels. With each level, the Servo will gain boosts and bonus abilities.
Line 216 ⟶ 220:
* '''Level 8''' - Charge decays 25% slower and a new Behavior Module
* '''Level 9''' - Gain skills 50% faster
* '''Level 10''' - Recharging is faster by 50% and a new Behavior Module, and they will be able to get married faster.{{Confirm}}
====Behavior Modules====
Line 223 ⟶ 227:
List of Modules:
* '''Eco-Friendly Tech:''' This behavior module makes Servos autonomously tend to [[Gardening (The Sims 4)|gardening]]. If ''[[The Sims 4: Seasons]]'' is installed, be cautious, as this behavior makes them go outside even if it's raining.
* '''Fix-O-Matic:''' This behavior module makes Servos autonomously repair broken objects as well as fix broken Utili-
* '''Parameterize and Sanitize:''' This behavior module makes Servos autonomously clean around the lot by cleaning dirty objects, removing trash, and mopping up puddles.
* '''Party Machine:''' This behavior module makes Servos autonomously act like the Party-Bot by playing music, serving food, and hyping guests.
