    Fixed an issue in which Hygiene was not being resolved when Taking a Shower on any Bathtub and Shower Combo.

    Fixed in Patch 1.60.54

I tell my sim to take a shower and she does, but she doesn't stop when she's finished. Why? Because she never gets finished. The timer around the action doesn't appear which causes her to shower forever and her hygiene bar doesn't go up. It continues to decay. Also, new interactions appeared on the shower tub combo that shouldn't be there such as take a mud bath or bathe with soaks. I uninstalled my mods and checked it again and she was still doing it.

It's not game-breaking, but it's annoying. My game just updated today with a released patch, too.

    @LaJefa_05 Those options are supposed to be there now with the latest patch, but I think that's what broke the hygiene motive. I'm having the exact same problem.

    @LaJefa_05 It’s only on the tub and shower hybrids, single showers are working fine. It’s really weird.

    @LaJefa_05 The bath with soaks and mud bath are from Spa Day I think.

    @LaJefa_05 I have the same thing. My sim won't get clean, only thing is that I'm not using mods.

      Same problem for me!
       
      I ask my sim to perform any of the upright shower functions (brisk, thoughtful, sing, etc) in a combo shower/bathtub. Everything animates as expected but no timer forms around the action icon so the sim showers indefinitely, yet the hygiene bar does not improve- in fact it continues to decay. Inevitably I give up and manually cancel the action and my sim leaves the shower dirtier than when she started showering. Ironically, if she was supposed to get any “boost” from the shower type selected (for instance, inspired for singing in the shower) she gets the matching moodlet as if the shower had worked perfectly!
       
      As an additional observation, the combo shower/bathtubs are now showing options not usually available to them: mid bath, bath with salts. I tried using these and they function perfectly. In fact, all the “bathing” options perform perfectly, with timers, increased hygiene, and appropriate moodlets and boosts. Only the upright options are misbehaving.
       
      Not sure when the issue actually began, since the December patch came out about the same time I added university and because most of the lots I play don’t have combo shower/tubs, so I didn’t notice this until moving into a gallery downloaded lot for student housing which happens to have combo shower/tubs. So I can’t isolate when the issue actually started or what caused it. My current work around is daily citrus baths to keep my student sims focused up!
