[FIXED] [DU] 'Go To Class early' missing/cancelling --> Sim misses class
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? 1.58.63.1010 What expansions, game packs, and stuff packs do you have installed? All except Moschino and First pet stuff packs. Steps: How can we find the bug ourselves? Have a sim go to university and wait for a class to start What happens when the bug occurs? There's no button to go to class "early" when it's 1 hour before start. What do you expect to see? A button to go to class when it's one hour left til the class start Have you installed any customization with the game, e.g. Custom Content or Mods? Not now. I've removed them. Did this issue appear after a specific patch or change you made to your system? Neutral/Not Sure
This is probably by design but I rather it wasn't. There's no "Go to class" button until the class starts. And the classes are very short so unless I manually tell my sim to stand outside the class until it starts they will most likely miss it. My sims miss 80% of their classes cause I am currently playing with 4 sims in a dorm and keeping up with all their different schedules is almost impossible. And not to mention how long it takes to get on and off the bike. When it gives you the notification that the class will start in 1h I would love it if you could click on a "Go to class" button, I don't mind if the sim stands outside and waits until the class starts before entering.
I am not using any mods, and I am not using any CC. I have all of the expansions, etc, except for Cottage Living.
I began playing the University expansion for the first time, and, for the first time, I am now experiencing a huge number of issues! I'm so disappointed, because I have absolutely loved the 4th version of the game, otherwise. Everything just went south with University, and after I slog my way through this degree, I will likely never touch University, again.
I have lived in a dorm, in the group house and at home.
Issues: At both locations: 1. I have never seen a "go to class early" option, or notification. I did not know it even existed until reading this thread. 2. My sim can go to class on-time, do all of their homework, attend study sessions, and "take notes", but will still receive a low grade. 3. While playing a sim which is attending university, I have experienced a very large increase in general pathing issues, Sim AI issues, and Sims which will pop to the front of my lot, or out of bed. It may seem coincidental but it only started happening after I started going to university, and wasn't happening for the 3 other families I was playing, this week. It's like the extra interactions are causing internal errors. I also had a non-controlled sim somehow steal a textbook out of my Sim's inventory. 4. The notifications for Spirit Day spam my *empty* notification box until it's full.
While living on campus: 1. My sim constantly bugs out while pathing. They will go to class, take the entire class-time to get there, or will arrive 30 minutes late, and then proceed to loop a walk/stop animation or "fly as bat" in the same spot, over and over, again, either while going, or just after exiting, the rabbit-hole. I nearly burned to death three times, as a vampire. I had to force-exit the game, and use cheats to fill needs. If I live at home, I can go to class without seeing this bug. It can happen after attending other uni events, too, so I just stopped doing any of the University events.
There are no accommodations for vampires. I have to cheat a coffin into the space just to play. The entire experience behaves as if vampires don't exist in the world, at all. I realize vampires aren't "realistic" but they are part of The Sims, so this seems like a serious oversight, and I can't edit the lot, or choose to go home in the middle of a term. I don't want to *have* to cheat, or use mods, to fix game incongruency. It's worse when the game punishes me for ending a term (losing my scholarships).
I wish that University had been built a bit more like other jobs; choose a job, go "off lot" to attend class(not run to a building), attend field-trip ( 4-8 hour thing that works like scientist), or stay home and complete a set of tasks. When I was an undergrad, in real life, I had a class 2x every week that was 4 hours long, and we rotated between a lab and a university greenhouse. That would be a perfect minigame experience for University in the Sims. The task sets for staying home could have been fun, too, like "go to an event, study at X place, watch video on computer, go to keg party" so you could get the "college experience." Right now, I feel like all of the "game," aspect was stripped, and there's just bugs, and fast-forwarding through homework.
Sims go to University classes early when directed to if they are at their campus.
Fixed in Patch 1.90.358/1.61
