[FIXED] Off Grid Living: Lights not working although candles/oil lamps
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? 1.52.100.1020
What expansions, game packs, and stuff packs do you have installed? All of them.
Steps: How can we find the bug ourselves? Place the lights on a lot with the Off the Grid trait.
What happens when the bug occurs? The "Rustic Candle Chandelier" and "Weathered Lantern" lights from Jungle Adventure don't function when a lot has the Off the Grid trait.
What do you expect to see? Similar candles and lanterns from other packs work, so I'd expect these to work too.
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? Yes
Please describe the patch or change you made. I installed the latest patch; the one that introduced the Off the Grid trait.
I'm not sure where to submit this, since this is more of an oversight than a bug, but I hope this gets seen so it can eventually be fixed.
