Plants no longer change their quality or evolve on their own after Sims traveling.
Fixed in Patch 1.68.154/ 1.33
If you're still experiencing this issue, please create a new thread.
Is the neighborhood footprint green? It seems like plants improve in quality under a green footprint, which may be by design.
@Bra1nBlast3dNeutral / Green both have the same impact on the lot for me. Please keep in mind as well that I can SAVE the game and come back to an upgraded plant.
I have this issue also. It is happening in different lots with different sims. Also, I had a number of Perfect plants that have downgraded themselves to Magnificent. There are a few that were ready to evolve prior to encountering the bug, those seem to not be evolving on their own. In addition, sheltered plants are resetting to just a dirt pile when a season changes and have to grow again.
I am currently playing on Long... so when my Season changes I'll see if this occurs for me as well... Regardless I'll add it up top.
Also @Ysenne , could you possibly tell me what Traits/Locations you have replicated the bug at...?
I did some investigation.
Lots where this is happening:
1. Port Promise, Canal Corner. Traits: Reduce and Recycle, Geothermal, Natural well. Soybeans planted in vertical planters evolve by themselves. Avocado and begonias harvested from Perfect plants de-evolve by themselves.
2. Willow Creek, what used to be Willow Creek Park (I replaced the lot). Still a park. Lot traits: Sunny aspect, child's play, great soil. Perfect plants negatively evolving (they have gone from Magnificent to Nice). Existing fruit is Perfect quality; new fruit is Nice quality. Normal plants look like they are evolving normally (I forgot to actually try and evolve them).
Both these lots have a beehive.
Lots where this is NOT happening:
1. Sulani, Key Point. Traits: Oceanic paradise, Off the grid, party place. I pulled this one up just to try it, tried saving, advancing time past 6 AM. Then planting something, advancing past 6 AM again. Was able to manually evolve a coconut tree (like normal).
2. San Myshuno, 930 Medina studios. Traits: Gnomes, penny pixies. I thought I was having the de-evolving issue here, but when I went back and checked, this doesn't appear to be the case.
Neither of these lots has a beehive.
@Avenagaliene does your lot have a beehive?
