Checked today. It's fixed for me. ♥
A modder (LittleMsSam) has already fixed this issue several weeks ago... Pretty much a few days after the HSY patch came out and ruined everyone's game. But yet we have Sim Gurus claiming on Twitter that they can't fix major issues like this one that easily due to us "not providing enough information" on Answers HQ... Or "not enough save files" for them to address major issues. These issues are supposedly "not reproducable" for them. Which is nothing but a whole load of nonsense. Modders, regular Sims 4 players fix issues it takes a team of supposed professionals years to fix, if they even bother at all. And they wonder why simmers lash out at them and call them liars. Not everybody can use mods. Console players are unfortunately stuck with this issue until God knows when. All they can be bothered to fix are apparently useless stupid scenario bugs nobody cares about. Instead of focussing on actual game breaking issues.
@Amalathea Did I say it was fixed for EVERYBODY? No. I specifically said in my post that this issue hasn't been fixed for console players who will unfortunately be stuck with it untill The Sims team can be bothered to fix it themselves, if ever. It's not really "fixed" for anyone until it is officially fixed by the creators of the game. I'm just as frustrated about the bugs as you, so don't take it out on me.
We shouldn't have to rely on modders or on using mods to fix the game. Not everybody likes using them. But for those that don't mind, at least a modder fixing it before EA can be bothered to, is one way for them to be able to get back to enjoying their game, bug free. So yeah, I'm glad that they try to help the community in their own ways.
