I've got all expansions and accessoires, except Diesel installed.
I send a couple of to university without any problems (living in their own place, no roommates). My problems started after the end of the semester.
After receiving their ratings, I got a message that one of my sims would be graduating tomorrow (probably a translation error) and that they should invite friends and family. I did invite quite a lot family and friends, didn't know what would happen next. A few moments later graduation started.
There were a lot of sims before the entrance of the stadion, all waiting to go inside. My sim had to wait for 7 hours, before he could get changed and go inside. He got back immediately. Got no pop-up for a new attribute. Two hours later my sims went home without problems.
I didn't see any of the invited sims for graduation.
The other sim didn't have enough points to graduate. I send her straight back for another semester. This time I let her live in a big student home close to college. Again, no problems until graduation. I didn't know yet that tomorrow was a translation error, so I threw a party. I left the party quite soon and went to graduation. This time there were less students waiting in front of the stadion and I got in really fast. After the graduation, I wasn't able to click other sims, use the smartphone or click on the sim self. She did get a new attribute after graduation, but wasn't send home when the message arrived. She stayed on campus. Clicking on the 'go home' button next to her portrait, send her to a place she never called home (restaurant) and afterwards I couldn't let her use anything in the world.
I closed the game without saving and went back to the point just before they both finished their first semester. This time he went early to the stadion and got in on time.
He got a new attribute. He did have the same issue that I couldn't click on any other sim, or on his smartphone. I was able to communicate with him when I selected the other sim.
At the moment they went home everything went ok. They both went back to Aurora Skies. Back home I was able to click on other sims when selected the sim that just graduate.
In short
- A lot of sims before the stadion caused my sim not to go to the ceremony at all.
- My sim therefore didn't get a new attribute, nor the moodlet associated with graduation (10 days duration)
- After graduation my sims are not able to use smartphone or communicate with other sims.
- My sim living in a dorm never went home.
