[GF] CAS/travel setting neutral reputations to almost "Bad"

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? 1.84.197.1030
What expansions, game packs, and stuff packs do you have installed? All but the paranormal one.
Steps: How can we find the bug ourselves? Create a sim and enter Live Mode. Have them travel to another lot or go into CAS and then return to live mode.
What happens when the bug occurs? Sim reputation (when starting at a "neutral" setting) resets to *almost* bad i.e. almost a full step toward bad reputation; shows devilish picture but says "neutral" reputation. Sim has never done anything that would warrant the development of a bad reputation.
What do you expect to see? Sim reputation staying stable and not changing from traveling/entering CAS.
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? Neutral/Not Sure 

Note: I had CC installed, but no mods whatsoever.  I removed them and retested prior to submitting this report.

Used in-game "shift-click" cheats menu to change sim reputation to "Good" and problem seemed to stop (unless it's resetting to the minimum value accepted for that reputation level).  When I "cheated" her level back to neutral, I started seeing the above issue again.

Edit By Crinrict: Added Tag to Title. Please add pack tags yourself because of a current bug that breaks the template when editing a post.

  • So I've tried a few more things - opening up pre-existing households, starting new households - and I found that all of the sims have that same reputation level upon loading, before even opening CAS or doing a travel interaction.  It's not something I noticed before because I usually don't pay too much attention to reputation and it's so far down in the Simology panel that I wouldn't have thought to check if I hadn't gotten a call from a sim acquaintance about how my reputation had an unsavory acquaintance wanting my number.  o.o

  • Yes, the same (almost) bad reputation.  It still says "Neutral", but the bar shows red up to the "Bad" line.  I used the in-game "shift-click" cheat to set reputation to true neutral, then after coming out of CAS or traveling, the reputation was back to that (almost) bad setting.  There is no reason for these sims to have that reputation level.

    If I use those same in-game cheats to set their reputation to "Good", it does not drop back to red after travel or CAS.

    Still having this issue; just a heads up.  Not sure how to fix it without cheating all my sim reputations to "good".

    @Sharkette126 I don't have a solution for you. I double checked mine and it's working fine so no idea what's going on in your game.

    Anyways as this is the bug forum, that is often the case anyways and you'll just need to wait for EA to fix it or someone to find a cause/solution.
