Re: [CURRENT ISSUE 64-bit] All open water options missing

Just to throw a small spanner in the works, my sim can fish.  

I am playing in a custom world but she had no problems when I directed her to fish at a pond.  I didn't try any of the other water activities though.

    @Dorabella123  Could you please test in open water as well?  Ponds are a different category than oceans/lakes/rivers, for example sims can't swim in one or do any of the IP activities.

    I was originally merely a "Me Too" on this category, but today for some reason and now with all EPs I could testingcheats teleport my sim into the ocean whereas before when I had the base game only installed I could not.

    He was really under the water though and couldn't do much as I couldn't direct him anywhere other than a Go Here onto dry land.  After a few sim minutes he probably missed the usual supply of oxygen that would be available and decided to start swimming around and enjoying himself out there autonomously, but things just didn't look right -- as he was swimming it looked like the game was jerking him back and forth, trying to fight against something. Although this last bit could be my imagination if other players aren't seeing this.

    Ponds I don't have a problem with (fishing), just the ocean thus far.

    Mine can fish in a pond but there are no interactions available in oceans, lakes, or rivers.
