Additional Notes
This is one of the objects that children cannot use on their own. They must be accompanied by an adult in the teach interaction. Adults using the biotech Station should ensure that they have a few logic skill points first and they are in a good mood. If a sim's current logic skill is low or they have low hygiene, low mood or are of a grouchy personality, it's likely that the medicine will fail and be unusable. In a worst case scenario they could even produce a dangerous virus and mishandle it, making themselves ill in the process.
Successful vials of medicine are coloured blue. The higher the logic skill and the mood of the sim, the darker the blue will be and the higher the sale price will be for the medicine. Unsuccessful vials containing a virus will be colored green. Unsuccessful medicines or virii should be disposed of.
If any member of the household becomes ill, you have the option to give them medicine instead of selling it. This becomes more important for children as they are unable to get the medicine for themselves. Older members of the household will have the get interaction if a successful vial of medicine has been left in the machine. You may have to take more than one vial of medicine to cure any illness. It will depend on the strength of the medicine. It therefore pays to make sure the sim with the highest logic skill and best mood, is responsible for the making of medicines. If no one in your household is ill, then the get or give medicine interactions will not be available.
The Biotech Station fills your sims fun at level four and can fill it up to a max of 70 fun points
