[FIXED] [ECO] Sim swiping own household objects (Recycle Trait)
Product: The Sims 4
Platform:PC
Which language are you playing the game in? English
How often does the bug occur? Often (50% - 99%)
What is your current game version number? 1.63.134.1020
What expansions, game packs, and stuff packs do you have installed? All of them besides the spooky stuff pack.
Steps: How can we find the bug ourselves? It happens randomly, as if my sim have the kleptomania trait (which she don't). It's a new save file, and I moved my sim into the new shipping lot from the eco lifestyle expansion pack.
What happens when the bug occurs? Sound from the swipe and a pop-up saying she managed to swipe the item without drawing attention to herself, while the item is gone and not to be found in her personal inventory or the household one.
What do you expect to see? I expect this to not happen as my sim does not have the klepto trait, and even if she did she shouldn't be swiping her own stuff as it's forcing me to buy them again.
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? Yes
Please describe the patch or change you made. I haven't actually played in a while but the most recent update is installing the new expansion pack Eco lifestyle. Whether or not it's a previous patch or this one in particular that's causing it is still uncertain due to me not playing in any of the most recent patch updates.
Basically, I installed the new expansion pack Eco Lifestyle. Created a completely new game with a new sim and moved her into the new shipping container lot, I gave her the recycle, maker and green fiend traits. I started playing as normal and a in-game week or so into the game I suddenly got the pop-up saying she swiped an item successfully. I didn't at the time notice what item she actually took, but a few days later she swiped the trash can (while I had set her to do things, so it wasn't even free will?). She's acting as if she's got the klepto trait, while also stealing her own stuff. It doesn't really make any sense and it's getting annoying having to rebuy the items she's swiping, especially when funds are already low being this early into the game.
Edit By Crinrict: Added Tag to Title
Recycle Disciple Sims without the Kleptomaniac Trait now swipe household objects less often. We get it, we are all trying to do our best for the environment, but going after your Dumpster was a bit too far… we kinda need that.Fixed in Patch 1.68.154/ 1.33
