Sims Won't Go To Work
I wanted to set up a historical sims town that takes place in colonial times and gradually moves through history into the present day. So, I deleted all of the lots on in Sunset Valley and started my...

@tlobliviate As an experiment, have the sims quit their jobs (which they can do over the phone), bulldoze the two rabbitholes, use NRaas MasterController to remove their career outfits if necessary, then save, quit, and delete the five cache files in the Sims 3 user folder. For reference, they are:
- CASPartCache.package
- compositorCache.package
- scriptCache.package
- simCompositorCache.package
- socialCache.package
Reload your save, place one of the rabbitholes, and give a different sim a job there. (You don't have to save your progress; this is just for testing.) Let me know whether the sim is willing to go to work. If not, did you make any mod-related changes to this world to keep it in historical times? It's possible one of those changes is interfering.
@puzzlezaddict Thank you so much for your response, but unfortunately, my sims still won't go to work. I didn't change anything with my mods, so I really don't understand why it isn't working.
@tlobliviate Please try without any mods, just to make sure those aren't the issue now. Even if you didn't change anything, it's still possible for some mod setting to be interfering. You can use "save as" to rename the save, so the original remains intact as a backup, then experiment on the new copy.
Be sure to delete the cache files after removing mods, or adding them back for that matter.
- @puzzlezaddict Hi. I tried again without mods, and I'm having the same problem. My other game files seem to be mostly working. But, the education career at the school is not working. Everything else seems ok. So, I'm not sure what to do.
Do you think if I saved all of my sims and remade the town in another save file, that that could solve the problem?@tlobliviate I think that should work yes. In your position, I'd periodically test the save to make sure sims can go to work—place the rabbitholes early if you have to, then quit without saving when you're done. And make a backup copy of the save each time you test, so if you see the issue again, you can revert to that save rather than starting from scratch. That way, you won't find yourself having done all this work only to run into the same problem.
Your NRaas mods should be fine to use, and in fact should help prevent this error and others.
