[FIXED] Cowplant Milk Misnamed

After my cowplant devours a sim and I milk it, the "mysterious liquid" added to my inventory is named "____'s essence of happiness" or whatever emotion the sim had when he was eaten. The sim's name is missing though.

I already checked whether this bug was caused by any of my mods but even when I remove all mods and run the game, the bug persists.

Has anybody else seen this and been able to fix it?

    Essence milked from Cowplants will now display the name of the Sim whose essence it is.
    • …because it’s important to know.
      • “Was that Bob you just drank? Because you know I was saving Bob. And now, Bob is gone… did you really need Bob? I mean Susan and George are still in the fridge, they’re right there next to the lasagna. But no, you had to take Bob!”

    Does the tombstone/urn still exist when it says that ? If so, does that have a proper name ?

    Thanks!

    The sim is still alive. She did not have the drained moodlet, so the cowplant just spat her out.

    I just tested your theory: I let my sim grab the cake a second time, while she still had the "drained" moodlet. The cowplant spat out her tombstone and it had her name, correctly. When I got another sim to milk the cowplant, he received a drink called "ESSENCE OF ASHLEY'S LIFE".

    It seems that it is only the emotions drinks that are affected by this bug.

    Still an issue as of the July 2016 patch.

    Running no mods / cc.
