Re: [FIXED] [PC/MAC] Save Error 0 (Patch 1.86.166)

Product: The Sims 4
Platform:Mac
Which language are you playing the game in? English
How often does the bug occur? Every time (100%)
What is your current game version number? 1.108.335.1220
What expansions, game packs, and stuff packs do you have installed? All
Steps: How can we find the bug ourselves? When hitting save, error code 0 appears.
What happens when the bug occurs? A box pops up stating: The game failed to save. Error code: 0.
What do you expect to see? I’d like it to save instead of using the save as option.
Have you installed any customization with the game, e.g. Custom Content or Mods? Not now. I've removed them.
Did this issue appear after a specific patch or change you made to your system? Neutral/Not Sure 

I cleared my cache. I deleted extra saved files and cleared out My Library downloads. I repaired the game, packs etc. I removed mods. I disabled join a career, friendship changes and romance changes in neighborhood stories. Nothing has worked except for Save As.

    I first got the error after going to high school with 2 teens and getting a indexed_manager error, possibly because this is my first time going to active high school in this save with a sim in a career (chess team and live streamer teen career).

    Here is part of the BetterExceptions report: 

    Possible Cause
    (Confidence: 10%)
    indexed_manager
    Reason[tingyul] Exception raised while trying to restore career event. (TypeError: IndexedManager keys must be integers.)

    I tried repairing my game, clearing the cache, and only having one save in the saves but I still get the error. I tried going back to a previous version and not going to active high school but still got error code 0

    @crinrict Are you able and willing to change the subject title to reflect the current Patch from 1.86.166 to 1.108.335?

    My sim quit the scientist career, I sold all the crystals/metals in her inventory, and now I can overwrite saves again.

    @LegacySims2017 It's always the patch where it re-occured first. Now it's just a lot more prominent but it was occurring before this patch.

    I tried playing a different household but the same error happens whenever I try to save. I tried saving from the map but that didn't work.
