    Please, guys in order to get the goal for both your teen sims you need to talk to the principal with the other teen sim or the sim will show up like all the other teen sims.  Once you talk to the principal, the principle will welcome you to school, and your first goal that will show up is claim your locker, after that it should be replaced with a go to class dialog box.  You have to sign up and get a locker or the one that is not signed up still goes to the rabbit whole school which is where HSY pools its simulated students from.

    What do you mean? I'm not sure if I understand.

    In the past, as soon as you went to school with more than 1 teen, every single one of them would get the task list (the max number of teens I sent at once where 6, and the all got the tasks), even before talking to the principal.

    Now, only one gets them. You can command the second teen (or all the other teens) to talk to the principal and this will do nothing. They will still stay on school grounds, go to class autonomously etc, but only one of them will get the task list and the school report at the end of the schoolday. And if you attempt to send them to school the next day, the same thing happens, only the one teen who got the task list the day before will get them, and this is happening in other households as well.

    @Valadenthys I remember when it first came out, the teens first day of high school you Got a welcome Message that says Welcome to Copperdale High school please check with your principal to get your class schedule, and don't forget to pick your locker.

    @Sid1701d9Yes, you do get that welcome message (the task list/goals) asking you to ask the Principal about the new school, pick a locker, and then it tells you to ask your teacher about the school program. The issue, like I said above, is that you're supposed to get that task list with every teen sim the moment they spawn in the school, all of them should get it at the same time. You did not needed to do any extra steps before you got the task list/goals, you just got them the moment the loading screen showed you were at school.

    Now, it only shows up with only one of the teens, while the others never get it.

    @Valadenthys I think I found a work around I am not sure, but never tested it completely because it would take two days and I didn't want to take that time. So when it said go to school it asked me which sims I want to follow to school I choose both of them, it would give the tasks to the first sim on the list, and the other sim didn't get it. However, I reset the day and only choose to follow the second sim he got the task list. So I think on the first day like on Monday you follow sim 1 to school, you complete the task for sim 1, the next day you send sim 2 to school and complete the same task for sim 2, and than when you select both sims the next day they should both have tasks, because they both completed the welcome tasks. I hope that helps. Let me know if that work around works I didn't have time to test 3 days. So if you started on Monday sim 1 completes welcome task, Tuesday sim 2 completes welcome tasks, both sims should now get the tasks on wednesday day 3.
  • @Sid1701d9 Just tried what you wrote. Didn't work. I think there's just no workaround. When the game detects there are 2+ sims going to high school, only one gets the tasks.

    @PeppaPigEdadPavoJust what I thought when you go to a lot with more than 1 sim it auto groups them together, its the group thing that is keeping them from getting assignments togather, so its fine if they are followed to school one at a time, but not fine if they are followed to school together. Before when it was working there was no group allowed at the high school lot, so that all sims could get the assignments.

    @Sid1701d9 it wasn't like that before, you could follow multiple teens to school and they all used to get the daily tasks for school, I only know because I had done that multiple times in the past and both teens got the high school daily tasks, but since that update only one teen gets the daily tasks and the other one doesn't anymore

    i don't think it's a group issue.  you can invite friends and travel as a group to City Living events when your friends calls you to do __ at the fair.  even inviting family members, every one in family (as a group) will have Do X Thing.  or Seasons holiday, or Parties, or Dates, game can handle group goals, and switching btwn family members.
