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? 1.61.15.1020
What expansions, game packs, and stuff packs do you have installed? Get to Work and the free Holiday Celebration Pack
Steps: How can we find the bug ourselves? Have a Sim start a Sad book or a Romantic book when in a sad/flirty mood, but "finish" (i.e. fill the wheel) when they are no longer in that mood. Try to go back and Resume writing it. I have had this happen with books that aren't particular to a mood (definitely a biography), but it happens most consistently with mood books.
What happens when the bug occurs? The progress wheel will fill, but the book won't be completed. There will be no notification of completion, the book will not appear in the Sim's inventory, and it will still be an option to Resume. When I try to Resume the book that should be completed, the action will appear and then immediately disappear from the queue. I'm not 100% sure it always happens when it's supposed to have finished because I'm not always paying attention, but there have been times when I did feel like it shouldn't have been finished.
What do you expect to see? Either for the Sim to finish the book and be able to publish it, or to be able to resume writing the book until it can be published.
