Steps: How can we find the bug ourselves? I am trying to load a household with 1 woman. The bug occurs since she made a baby with an elder man. This was the procedure: - Right after the "Trying for baby" action the elder fell to the floor and died. - The woman took a pregnancy test at the same time and got the "Eating for Two" message a few seconds after the death animation of the elder began. - Death stepped in, she did the "Plead for ..." action, the man died anyways. - Then she had some social interaction with the Grim Reaper. - After he left she used the action "Strengthen presence... " on the urn. - Then I put the urn into her inventory and traveled to another household, placed the urn as grave there and left. - Then I switched to the household with the grave and one of the members did "Leave sugar skull offering" successfully. - After that I tried to load the other household with the now pregnant woman again, but got the error message as shown in the attached screenshot. - I am not able to load the household anymore in any way. I even tried to move it to another place, but the same error occurred. - I suppose, this has something to do with the pregnancy and the link from child to (dead) father. Maybe the pregnancy start (Pregnancy Test Result) and the death animation somehow overlapped in a bad way the game couldn't handle. Maybe a ghost is not a valid link for a fresh fathership. I don't know. I would really appreciate your help.
What happens when the bug occurs? The bug occurs every time I try to load this specific household. All the other households work fine, but just this one fails. The game is loading and I hear the music that usually comes after the household has loaded successfully, but then the error (see attached screenshot) pops up and I find myself in the worlds/cities overview.
What do you expect to see? I want to load my household again and I want the woman to be still pregnant.
