[BY DESIGN] Age groups start with random days added from CAS/Gallery
Product: The Sims 4 Platform:PC Which language are you playing the game in? English How often does the bug occur? Every time (100%) What is your current game version number? 1.47.51.1020 What...
@crinrictI have. And there is a differance in adding random days and giving sims almost full lifebar every time. And I had a YA and an A sim in the same household that had the same birthday bc they both had almost full lifebar, causing them to have same amount days left. I didn't care about the adult becoming elder as he was only their for a background story.
And the random age by design was to make it so they dont have same birthday.
@Nekoboy69@Aoife516 What you guys are describing sounds like a bug, but I'm just not able to reproduce, I'm not seeing any close-to-full age bars.
I started a New Game, created 4 Teens and 4 Adults in CAS, went into the Options to change the Sim Lifespan to Normal, then placed the household down onto the Sandtrap Flat in Oasis Springs. When I got into Live Mode every Sim's age bar was pretty low. The most full I saw was a teenager with 12 days remaining til age up. I've repeated this process a few times now and I always see the same.
I've also tried adding a new Sim to an existing household and leaving that household as unplayed. So like, I added an Adult to the Pancakes household, then went back to the household I was playing and had a Sim visit the Pancakes, and I'm not seeing the Adult immediately age up.
I've also downloaded a random Teen from the Gallery, placed them on a random lot, and had one of my Sims go visit the Teen, and yeah he's not aging up.
Could the issue you're seeing possibly be related to Mods? If you move your entire Mods folder to your Desktop and restart your game, do you still see it occurring? Or how about if you move your entire TS4 folder? If that doesn't do the trick, could you possibly share a video or save file? Thanks for the help! https://answers.ea.com/t5/Bug-Reports/INFORMATION-How-to-Send-User-Files-to-The-Sims-4-Team/m-p/6065302
Edited to add: If you're able to reproduce this issue without mods, could you possibly file a new AHQ Report? Maybe something called "Sims age up immediately when coming out of CAS" or something like that. Thanks so much!
@SimGuruNickI tried it out. Both with and without mods. It seems that the Adult and YA sims always start with 22 - 24 days left on normal age post-patch. And the reason it seems to be almost full bar when playing with mods, is that the "random age" don't seem to registrate the age settings in MCCC. I don't know if this is something DP needs to fix in MCCC or if its something EA needs to fix. Or is it something I can fix within the settings of the game?
With mods the bars look like this. This is in the same household. Darnell and Neil are supposed to be halfbrothers but the random age made them twinbrothers.
@SimGuruNick I tried your suggestions and seem to be having the same age issue as @Nekoboy69 when I try playing a new save and no mods.
I can only reproduce the "sims age up immediately from CAS" with 1 household right now. Can a single household be bugged like that? Even when switching their ages, the age bar stays at max. I did have it with with a few other sims but they are currently showing 12 days left or 2 days left until age up.
@Aoife516 As asked above by Nick, could you create a new thread for this ?
