This is a lot trait for Spellcasters to go wild using their magic. Lots with the Magically Focused lot trait do not generate spellcaster charge! They don't generate experience points, either. Likewise, you cannot do Practice Magic interactions, nor can you experiment in the cauldron. This is to prevent you from learning spells without having to actually do any real gameplay.

You can still learn spells from duels or asking magic sages (if you apply this trait to the Realm of Magic HQ), or by simply going to a lot without this trait applied.

The whole point is just to be able to fire off all your spells whenever you want, in one or two special lots dedicated to it. I am personally using this on my home lot so that I'm forced to head somewhere else to learn magic, but not necessarily to use it.

There are three flavors. ONLY USE ONE. They are not compatible with each other because I am too lazy to make it so right this second. Yes, that's really why. I might make them distinct later.

Magically Focused
This version blocks both EXP gain and Charge gain, as well as practice interactions.

Magically Focused Charged Edition

This version blocks EXP gain, but not charge gain. Useful for if you want to force your sim to leave home to learn stuff, while still having to balance their spellcasting at home. Blocks practice interactions.

Magically Focused Tricky Edition

This version knocks EXP gain to 65%, and charge gain to 30%. Good for the magic realm HQ, to make it an appealing place to practice magic! This version does NOT block the Practice interactions.

ONLY USE ONE!

Magical Focus: No EXP, No Charge
Charged: No EXP, Yes Charge
Tricky: 65% EXP, 30% Charge

Thanks ChippedSim for helping me figure out what I needed to do to make my first lot trait work!!!

I love how you just make the game that much harder, thus so much more fun!!

Game balance is very important to me in basically every game. The Sims team said something or other not too long ago that led me to believe they don't really do a lot of balance testing for the game, so there's definitely a lot to fix there.
