[ARCHIVED] [PH] Young adults gain Parenthood character values

Product: The Sims 4
Platform:PC
Which language are you playing the game in? Suomi
How often does the bug occur? Occasionally (10% - 49%)
What is your current game version number? 1.67.45.1020
What expansions, game packs, and stuff packs do you have installed? Get to Work, Get Together, City Living, Seasons, Get Famous, Discover University, Vampires, Parenthood, StrangerVille, Realm of Magic, Star WArs: Journey to Batuu, Laundry Day Stuff.
Steps: How can we find the bug ourselves? Have the Sim talk with another Sim using Interactions that could have an effect on Emotional Control. (I am sorry I cannot narrow down any myself).
What happens when the bug occurs? Occasionally when interacting with other Sims, the Sim will gain Parenthood character values (Emotional Control mainly) even though they are Young Adult and not a Teen or a Child anymore.
What do you expect to see? I expect Young Adults and older not to be affected by Parenthood character values anymore.
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? Neutral/Not Sure 

My current Sim who I raised from a baby all the way to a Young Adult is occasionally gaining Emotional Control which is a Parenthood game pack character value while they are doing their studies in University. I do not think this is the intended behavior. So far I have been unable to narrow it down to any particular interactions.

    Hi, does this still need saves? I encountered this issue while playing recently after a long break when my Sim used the training command on a punching bag. The specific value gained was Responsibility. This only occurred once and afterwards I tried to stop the activity and see if redoing the activity would trigger the floating value gain but it did not repeat. I'll send a PM to TheSimsDirect as instructed in the "Solution for Visibility" post with a save just in case it helps. 🙂

    Hey all,

    Just checking in to see if anyone is still seeing this on a modless game as we've been unable to reproduce it on our end.

    If so please share your save file with us (instructions: http://x.ea.com/74420) so we can take a look.

    Thanks!

  • @EA_Solaire I tried to send a save without mods but never got a response. If the link didn't work, I can try to send it again. 🙂

    Hi again, would it be possible to perhaps hear back on this when the team has time to look at the save if it was helpful in reproducing the issue or not? As the bug has been open for quite a long time. I understand that they have a lot of bugs to tackle but any follow-up could be helpful so we can try to keep an eye on more cases and more saves. 🙂
