Combining traits and personality points

I was thinking about not having enough trait slots in the game, and it occurred to me that there's a way to combine points and traits.

If every sim had say 15 personality points to use on traits, and you could use max 5 points on one single traits, but you could use as little as 1 point on a single trait aswell, for as many traits as one would want - or maybe a maximum of traits that the player could set themselves. It could be maximum 15 traits, or 10 or 5.

What do you think about this idea and would you want to have a set maximum of traits or decide for yourself? I think probably 5-7 traits maximum would be good for 15 points.

Points would lets us create more complex sims that has a dab of some personality - or sims that are just extreme in some areas.

One could have a rule that you have to choose a trait with 5 points, one with 3 points and so on to make sure the sims trait 'works' best in the game.

What do you guys think?

@SimGuruDrake I'd like to discuss this a bit in general please, before it's added to ideas section or whatever, it's not a complete idea yet. Thanks. :)
Allons-y!

    I feel like it would be okay if we did like pick a trait then have a scale between 1 and 10 points then 1 is (say your a goofball) your a goofball at times and 10 is your always and forever a goofball.

    Hello. This seems like a really good idea :smile: I think it would be fun to create sims with extreme personality traits and others who are less extreme. A sim could be an extreme kleptomaniac or just a little kleptomaniac every now and then lol.

    Yes, exactly! And you could create sims that are more complex and with more traits.

    Thanks, if they can't add it for Sims 4, maybe they can do it for Sims 5.
