Only with sims from my library.
To be precise, I created an 8-sim household for the game by creating one sim, and then copying them over 7 times for a total of 8 by saving such a sim to the library and then using the library to select the saved sim and then merging the sim together with the exact identical sim from the library, creating a set of 8 identical octuplets. With the 8th set, however, I changed the sim to some extent by changing the gender and some facial features to reflect this.
If you are interested, here is the gallery item that I based my creation off on (note that this is my own creation and hence that is why I am saying it's from the library): https://www.ea.com/games/the-sims/the-sims-4/pc/gallery/D27D99C4E4B611EB80DAA46954E8DEB9?category=all&searchtype=ea_origin_id&sortby=downloads&time=all&searchquery=humbelha137&max=50&maxis=false
Note that I have just tried a Repair of the game and I will see how this goes, I'll let you know if I have fixed the problems.
Thanks for your suggestions
@crinrict I have just repaired the game and it still shows as $20000 in funds, based on what I have done in my Method 1 and in my reply as seen.
I have tested this for 2 sims, and I get the expected $22000.
I still need to test this for 3 to 7 sims.
For some reason, a 4 sim household is also broken when created in such a fashion where I saved a sim to the library and then used the library to make copies of the sim as "super identical twins" by merging the saved and identical sim from the gallery into the sims that exist in CAS (that are the exact same sim that has been saved to and then loaded from the gallery). Perhaps this is the cause of such a money bug?
@humbelha137 Does it work if you don't 'clone' the same Sim several times ? Like if you have 8 completely different Sims, does it happen too ?
