[NEEDS INPUT] [S] [GF] Same audition over and over after audition on holiday

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? 1.47.51.1020
What expansions, game packs, and stuff packs do you have installed? All expansion packs, Game packs: Dine out, Outdoor Retreat, Spa Day, Vampires. Stuff packs: Cool Kitchen Stuff, Kid's Room Stuff, Luxury Party Stuff, Movie Hangout Stuff, Perfect Patio Stuff, Romantic Garden Stuff, Spooky Stuff,
Steps: How can we find the bug ourselves? Have sim schedule an Audition for a day that a holiday falls on - Doesn't go because of the holiday(Winterfest) and instead stays home, bugging out the audition. Tried to cancel audition and my sim went to it instead, even though it wasn't audition day. After she came back she landed the gig, went to the gig next day like it was all fine. Now whenever sim calls for audition and the game reloads between lots, travel, create a sim, the current audition disappears and instead the old one that bugged out on the holiday is there.
What happens when the bug occurs? Sim cannot schedule and complete a new audition unless there is no reload menu interaction. No plan outfit, no create a sim, no sim travel, no go to work with sim., no pet visit - any of these situations bugs the audition out and rerolls it to the one that bugged out on Winterfest.
What do you expect to see? I except my sim to be able to schedule and keep the audition she scheduled for without it getting wiped on a loading screen to the one that bugged out during the holiday
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 

‌

I'm not sure what else more to say other than what I've filled out there. It seems to be a bug with seasons/holidays. Ever since my sim's Audition was ignored for Winterfest, her auditions always bug out to that same audition whenever there's a reload from a loading screen. What i mean is just that whenever she travels, or any of my other active sims in the household, whenever anyone plans for outfit and brings up cas, or whenever they bring their dog to the vet - her NEW audition disappears and the one that bugged out is there instead. The audition that bugs out is the Urbz one for some reason, as that was the audition she had to go to the day of Winterfest. So no matter what she signs up to - I've had her try for three different auditions since discovering this bug - every time it goes back to the Urbz on wednesday (no matter what day of the week it is) whenever there was a reload.

    Hi @davyjoonslocker 

    Would you be willing to share your save with me ?

    If so, please zip your saves folder and upload it somewhere like dropbox,, googledrive or OneDrive and PM me the link.

    Won't have time until Sunday to look at it though.

    Some reasons may be because of cheating the Sim to a high level of the acting career. Maybe you could cheat demote your Sim from the low level and quit then join the same job again.

    Hi @davyjoonslocker 

    I looked at your save and was able to fix it the following way (although I don't know if it comes back after a while

    1. Click on the phone and get a new gig (the option should be there although you already have one)
    2. Best to choose a different one
    3. Play a while, it will suddenly change from Wed to a Sat Gig (no idea why)
    4. Cancel the gig and get yet another one
    5. That new one should be schedule to Wed and the Sim went fine to the audition and the actual gig.

    I'll test a bit longer to see what happens afterwards.

    Hi, I’m sorry that it took so long for me to reply. I tried your suggestion, and it worked. As always, when I first started to play, it was on the same gig that it was stuck on. I changed it to another gig and played it for a while, but the gig changed back to what it previously was. However, I was able to cancel the gig it was stuck on and now I don’t have anymore gigs scheduled.

    Thank you for helping!

    Sul Sul, everyone!!! 🙂

    We are currently investigating this issue but we struggle a little bit with the reproduction.

    It would indeed help us a lot if we could take a look at some save files or videos showing this issue happening.

    If you awesome people don't mind sharing your saves and videos with our team, here is how you can send those over to us!

    Thanks so much everyone and have an awesome day!

    Happy Simming! 🥳
