Steps: How can we find the bug ourselves? I have no idea. This is the first time it's happened and there were no obvious triggers. It was autonomous.
What happens when the bug occurs? I'm playing the Parenting Predicaments scenario with the Martinez family and have been for at least two days. They're living on Parkside Place in San Sequoia. The kids just got home from school and immediately autonomously aged up into teen. It wasn't their birthday (I'd estimate 6 days away, but I'd be guessing). The parents were at home when this happened, both actively engaged in actions I'd queued (acting as expected!). The mother, Jennifer, finished first and then, like the kids, autonomously aged up - from Young Adult to Adult. It was at this point I paused the game and checked the father, Pablo. He was still engaged in actions I'd queued (acting as expected!) but I could also see the Age Up action that had spontaneously appeared in his queue. The parents were the same age at the start of the scenario, so I could see for a fact that they had 19 days left until they were supposed to have their birthday/Age Up. I was unable to cancel the unexpected and undesired (not queued by me) Age Up action on Pablo. I had to quit and re-start the game to get back to this point - at which point I was able to cancel the Age Up for Pablo. But it had already happened for the kids and Jennifer. I do have autonomy on in the Game Options, but I've never seen autonomous Age Up on a non-birthday day!
What do you expect to see? I expect to see Sims do autonomous actions and actions I've queued up but not autonomous Age-Up when they're 1-3 weeks from their birthdays!
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? No
I have attached two screenshots from when I paused the game. At this point, the autonomous Age Up has happened to the kids (Child > Teen) and the mother (Young Adult > Adult) and was still showing as queued for the father.
