Plasma Bat Attack in Strangerville

Product: The Sims 4
Platform:PC
Which language are you playing the game in? English
How often does the bug occur? Occasionally (10% - 49%)
What is your current game version number? 1.66.139.1020
What expansions, game packs, and stuff packs do you have installed? All but Star Wars one.
Steps: How can we find the bug ourselves? Not entirely sure as it's only happened once but I was living in Strangerville (empty lot, rags to riches play) when I got attacked by a swarm of plasma bats on my home lot. I've never been to the jungle or anywhere outside of Strangerville for that matter.
What happens when the bug occurs? Sim gets attacked by plasma bats as if they were in the jungle.
What do you expect to see? No plasma bats outside of the jungle.
Have you installed any customization with the game, e.g. Custom Content or Mods? Never used.
Did this issue appear after a specific patch or change you made to your system? Neutral/Not Sure 

This is the weirdest thing any help figuring it out is much appreciated.

  • Have you added the “creepy crawlies” lot trait to the lot?

    Ohh, I did actually! I didn't realize that was linked to plasma bats but it does make sense now. I've never used that lot trait before, I don't know what I was expecting maybe bugs like in the needs TLC apartment 🤷. Thanks for the help.

    @PhireLPN Well, it does sound a bit like there will be small insects, like cockroaches or something, but the Creepy Crawlies trait includes spiders, bees and bats. I’m glad I could help you with the problem. 🙂
