Most people’s homes have a little bit of dust here and there, so a dusty home is not necessarily a bad thing in the game. Dustyĭespite what you might think, dusty is not actually a negative cleanliness state. Sims will gain positive moodlets on clean lots, making it easier for them to craft, cook, and work from home. The home will be absolutely spotless and the floor will occasionally shimmer, letting you know that the place is spic and span. This is the highest state of cleanliness. When you first load onto a brand new lot, your home will be in the clean state. Large families will have to clean more often to keep the dust at bay. The dust piles up more quickly in homes with large families living in them, especially if you have pets in the household. Letting the house get too dirty can turn into an all-day cleaning spree. The dirtier a home is, the longer it takes to clean, so it’s best to tidy up a little bit every day to stay on top of things. You can see the dust level of the home by clicking on the floor and selecting Check Dust Levels. Each level of cleanliness comes with either benefits or drawbacks to living there.
