Influence hit limit?

(1/1)

hooptytrib:
I had this happen once and did not think much of it.  Tonight I noticed it in someone's story.



Both sims fulfilled a large fear while having the "boundless influence" perk.  In my case, a fortune sim was either demoted or fired.  The sim in this pic feared a relative would meet aliens, or so it is claimed.  Both incidents happened with all major EPs installed.

The point it brings up:  might they have meant to only multiply gains x 5?

J. M. Pescado:
THe 5x influence perk is susceptible to overflow due to TS2's use of int16 for data storage. If you fulfill a want that grants more than 6K influence with the 5x perk, you will instead overflow and lose influence.

hooptytrib:
Now that you mention it, in my case the sim may have been topping a ltw;  it's the only reason a sim so far into that perk tree should be working.  As for this pic, who knows?

Thanks.  I thought something seemed familiar (and annoying) about that number.
