Re: Sim is missing after completing university

My workaround for University glitch

When returning home to no sim showing and no money and no way to play just click "Edit Town", then click on the house your sim lived in and it will pop up a box showing your sim in that house, money and all. At the bottom of the box is evict, merge with, merge, etc. Click the one that says "Switch to this household". You can now play and they have all their skills they learned while at Uni, all the money earned too. I played 30 minutes (offline mode on Origin, did not disconnect my wifi), saved and quit and restarted computer. Played online for a while and everything was fine.

Hope this helps someone with this glitch. May even work for traveling to China, France, etc also. I don't know because I never traveled there yet.

I have tried this and it still doesn’t work for me, it shows my lot as empty, and when I try to go back to the game it goes into setup mode. Is there any other solution?

@jaydoll99 The only other solution I know of is to revert to a prior save and try the travel transition again; hopefully it won't break this time. If it does, there are ways to try to make it more stable; let me know if you'd be interested in using mods or would rather try the approach that doesn't involve them.
