Life Hacks/Mods Guide/Adjust Rewards/Player Goals
Player goals in the game "Life" generally correspond to milestones (both good and bad) in a person's simulated life. Most of these award points each time they are achieved. The very first time the goal is achieved it is worth ten times the standard value. These are normally only available to player characters. Since Xander has only recently achieved this status (kind of), any previous goals that he has accomplished have not provided him points.
