In ambitions, the Fuss no Muss Styling Station has the Look-Good Mirrors upgrade, and the Digital Tattoo Applicator has the Inkinization 2.0 upgrade. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Omegasdx (talk • contribs) 19:26, Jun 9, 2010 (UTC)
Also in Ambitions, the Washing Machines have the Clean Polymer Injection System upgrade. It gives you the very fresh clothing moodlet +25 —Preceding unsigned comment added by Omegasdx (talk • contribs) 19:33, Jun 9, 2010 (UTC)

I added the upgrades mentioned above to the main page now. Duskey 03:53, June 11, 2010 (UTC)

There's another one. "Upgrade Extinguisher", for Firefighter Simbots. UBFunkaneer 21:40, June 17, 2010 (UTC)

Ah yes, I forgot about that one. It's not exclusive to Simbots though. You can also upgrade the fire engine. Unfortunately my firefighter died some time ago, so I cannot add them. Duskey(talk)(blog) 21:47, June 17, 2010 (UTC)

Description on upgrades

There seems to be confusion on what to add under Note in the upgrades table. I suggest we make two colums: Description & Player Notes. Description will say what you can read ingame by hovering your mouse over the upgrade in the handiness skill window and player notes will clarify since some of them can be abit ambiguous.

Official Downloadable Content Upgrades

Any descriptions on the official store downloadables and upgrades? I know that I can upgrade solar panels and wind turbines from the store (though what it actually does is a bit unclear)...

I think it would be a good idea to add these when we have the info as long as there is a note that says they don't contribute to the % of available upgrades. For instance, currently my Sim has 100% of available upgrades, yet I have never upgraded the solar panels or wind turbines.Trimalynn 17:53, July 9, 2010 (UTC)

Challenges

Why does Handiness has the easiest challenges? Just because things don't break so often or just because Handiness takes a bit of time to master (unless you buy Fast Learner lifetime reward and also get handiness skill books from the bookstore)?

Unique Upgrades

I've upgraded everything on the list, even the windmill and solar panels which don't affect percentages, but my unique upgrades complete is still 86%. ? Anyone else having this issue? ? I don't know what else there is to upgrade, I have all the expansions and stuff packs (expect Master Suite stuff).? Trimalynn ^(talk) 19:02, November 24, 2012 (UTC)
