Game only spawns Young Adult Librarian NPC Sims
Product: The Sims 4
Platform:Mac
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? 1.80.69.1230
What expansions, game packs, and stuff packs do you have installed? All EP's except Cottage Living, all GP's except Dream Home Decorator and Journey to Batuu, All SP's except Toddler, Kids Room, and My First Pet Stuff, none of the Kits
Steps: How can we find the bug ourselves? go to any library, then open cheat console, type in *testing cheats true* and *cas.fulleditmode*, then Shift left click the Librarian NPC and select *Modify in CAS*, change their age from Young Adult to Adult or Elder and return to the game afterwards, leave the lot and return to it the next day around the same time when you first visited it and search for the Librarian NPC that's currently in the library; you can also edit that specific Sim from the Manage Households tab, just make sure the *cas.fulleditmode* cheat is enabled to do so because you have to change their age
What happens when the bug occurs? instead of using the Adult Librarian Sim I edited in CAS the game will spawn a new one that is a Young Adult, even after deleting that new Sim the game continues to spawn Librarians that are Young Adults
What do you expect to see? the NPC Librarian that I've changed from a Young Adult to an Adult
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? No
While working on a Save File I've noticed that the game only spawns Young Adult Librarian Sims. I've changed a couple of them in CAS (appearance and age). When I returned to the game they still kept their NPC role but once I've left the lot and returned to it the next day around the same time there was a completely different Sim. I've moved the Sim I've modified in CAS to a lot while keeping them in the Other Household category (indicated by a greyed out Plumbob). When I visited them on the lot and asked them about their career they told me they're working as a Librarian at the place I've recently visited. I've repeated the same thing (moving Sims to a lot, and then asking them about their career) a few times and all of them gave me the same answer: Librarian at the lot I've just came from. While I don't mind seeing Young Adults in certain careers it'd still be nice to have more age options. I want to see Elder Librarians or Adult ones especially when I want to tell a storyline involving them. For now I can work around this by making them look much older in CAS than they actually are but it's a little weird seeing that those Sims are supposed to be Young Adults while looking like Elders.
Edit: The game in general spawns only Young Adult Librarians. Even after deleting the new Sims only YA NPC's would appear on that lot instead of the Sim I edited despite the game telling me that they work at that library. Once I set their age back to YA they would spawn again.
