Issue with the Spectrum Mood Lamp

KatzMeowz

The "feeling blue" moodlet doesn't end when my sim leaves the area of the lamp or even the lot. It won't stop until I turn off the lamp.

Also, I have yet to see a lamp be any color except blue. I've only used the lamp several times so I could just be unlucky. However, I'm wondering if anyone else has noticed these things about the lamp.

No one else has noticed the moodlet lasting after the sim leaves the lot the lamp was on?

Same happened to me with the 'Green' moodlet. Just hit ctrl+shift+c and type testingcheatsenabled true

Shift+click on the moodlet to remove it, that's the only way to sort it

I had the same issue, although it even lasted after I had sold the lamp.
Also, during the time my sim had the purple moodlet zombies continued to spawn every day, during all hours independent of the moon phase.
As soon as she was on a lot the zombies started to spawn after a while.
This ended when I purchased a new lamp, selected another colour and then turned the lamp of so that I could loose the "permanent" moodlet.

I had the same thing, used the lamp, then one of my sims went off to work while the other stayed at home, in range of the lamp. When I turned the lamp off, the one at home lost the moodlet, but when the worker came back, they still had the moodlet. Only way I found to get rid of it was to turn the lamp back on when they were in range, then turn it off again, which got rid of it.

One of my sims got the feelin' red moodlet stuck.

To change the colour of the lamp, click on it when it's turned off and select another colour.

My male fairy sim is permanently pink. He doesn't lose the moodlet and his skin is still coloured, even though it has been weeks. Also he had twin girls, and one also got the pink moodlet and it stopped her aging up. I'm also wondering if it stopped the female sim getting pregnant.

I've had the same problems! I tested it with all the colours and it bugs out with all of them. Plus I've noticed that when you turn it off, only the sim that you're currently controlling changes back to normal, noone else in the room.
It got so annoying that I just don't use the lamp anymore, shame really !

It happens to all mood settings in my game and my Sims keep that moodlet even after the lamp is turned off. I always
set testingcheats on and remove the moodlet with
ctrl + left mouse click.
It also turns your Sim's skin color back to normal.

That is normal. It is not a glitch.

Turn the lamp off and click it. You can then change the light color.

I was having the same problem. When I turned off the lamp my fairy sim remained pink. What I ended up doing was turning it back on and off while the sim was in range, and the moodlet was gone. It's a really neat little concept but it does have some glitches..
