    @Kwarcdymny1 Same as the other

    As Bryony is currently taking a break, this will not be added to the list but QA is aware of it.

    @Kwarcdymny1 

    I have also had issues sometimes where things are being deleted by placing other things (or deleting other things, moving walls, placing a lot, etc.). Partly probably because I use enlarge and Moo a lot in builds. This makes my placement and usage testing a real pain sometimes for me. If your chairs/table are being deleted, I would guess it's one of the following: glitch/bug or error in your game, the effect of something like moo, enlarging, the way something was placed, or that the mods/cc you removed have remnant effects that need to be cleaned up after (remove the mod folder and clear cache and repair the game).
     
    My test in similar table areas in a couple of my builds:

    I would recommend first doing the following to make sure that there is not any remnant effect from the mods/cc, just in case:
    • Exit your game then exit Origin. Copy the Mods folder from your 'The Sims 4' folder onto your desktop (for future reference) then delete the mods folder and the localthumbnailcache.package file in your 'The Sims 4' folder and restart the game and so that the game will re-create the folder.
    • Then run a game repair [ Open Origin, click 'Game Library' then right-click Sims 4 > Repair Game ]. Make sure to let it run until it has completed all repairs (it will do the basegame first, then run through each of your expansions/packs). After that, please see if the issue has stopped.

    If It fixes the situation I would recommend that you check with the Mod and CC creators to see if there are any known issues with their Mod/CC clashing with the update and if so do they have an updated Mod/CC that will address the changes in the game's code from the update. You can then re-add your updated Mods/CC one at a time to see if one was conflicting with the function/causing the glitch - but do not re-add the old config file from the old mods folder, as it is possible for it to have become corrupted also.

    @SheriGR I specifically tested this bug on a game that has never dealt with cc and mods, so this bug applies to all players. It occurs only when I put a floor tile next to the table with chairs on the ground not on the foundation (I flattened the ground, so it is not the incline).
