Traps
Overview
Traps don't kill your Sims. However, they can injure your Sim. When a trap is activated it will have a particular effect on your Sim, depending on what trap you activate. Your Sim will receive a negative moodlet and will have to wait a given period of time before they want to do something.
Types of Traps
There are many types of traps, these include Fire, Poison Darts, Steam, and Electric traps.
Disarming Traps
It is possible to avoid the effects of a trap. For example, to pass over a fire trap safely, you can jump in water (a dive well) to get the "soaked" moodlet first.
It is also possible to disarm traps using certain objects within the game. Pushing a statue on top of a trap sometimes disarms it. Inspecting holes in the wall or floors of the tomb sometimes trigger a hidden switch which will disarm a trap. Passing over an inactive fire or electric trap while soaked will leave a puddle that disables the trap.
There are some traps that a sim can manually, but once that sim experiences the 'Fear' moodlet, the sim will be unable to disable traps that were previously capable of being manually dissabled.
