[NEEDS INPUT] [S] Talk Like a Pirate Day: Interaction Rename Inconsistency

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 except the following: - Get Famous - My First Pet Stuff - Toddler Stuff - Laundry Day
Steps: How can we find the bug ourselves? Create a Stereogram Tile Shower item (Jungle Adventures) and a Post Modern Shower Stall (Base Game) on a lot that is currently celebrating "Talk Like a Pirate Day" then attempt to interact with both of them.
What happens when the bug occurs? The unique interaction options of the holiday when using the Stereogram Tile Shower do not appear. They appear regularly on most other showers. (Example: Wee Dip = Brisk Shower, Dream of the Sea = Steamy Shower, Contemplate the Waves = Thoughtful Shower)
What do you expect to see? I expect to see consistency on the interactions across all objects.
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

This is a low-priority display issue, where the unique-display interactions for Talk Like a Pirate Day on certain intractable objects is inconsistent across every object.

(Note: I am still in the process of documenting objects that are inconsistently displaying for this specific holiday; any additional input regarding it would be appreciated.)

  • Sounds like an overlook to me. All showers should have the same interactions.

    So far it's only showers ?

    So far; I've tested a few toilets and refrigerators as well, but those have been working.

    I will do some more extensive testing on my main lot when I get some time. (Thanksgiving kind of has me a little busy.)

    Steps: How can we find the bug ourselves? Trying to click on Almost InvisiShower 2.0 shower during talk like a pirate day, and try to select the Pirate options of “speedy”, “thoughtful” or “brisk” shower. Also trying to click on the EZPZ shower stall- By Umpa Loofa and try to select ANY pirate day options.
    What happens when the bug occurs? The only option that changes to a pirate type for InvisiShower 2.0 is “dream of the sea” which is the flirty option. And there are NO pirate options for the ESPZ shower stall-By Umpa Loofa.
    What do you expect to see? For all the pirate day options on these showers to be available like the rest of them during pirate day!
    Have you installed any customization with the game, e.g. Custom Content or Mods? Never used.
    Did this issue appear after a specific patch or change you made to your system? Yes
    Please describe the patch or change you made. After latest installation of university. I’ve never had an issue before because these items are only available in University.

    I know that there is an issue atm with the tub/shower combos not being able to shower in them properly (being stuck with hygiene depleting and needs depleting) so I was like “I can use my stand alone shower”! Then sadly my sim wasn’t able to participate in the shower aspect of this unless I did the flirty option in the Almost Invisishower 2.0. So seeing that as my only option was kinda sad cuz I really like that stand alone shower and I don’t want her to be flirty but inspired! So I tried to switch it out for the other one that came with university and NO options came up for pirate day! So now she can’t unless I change the shower to a none University stand alone shower lol I hope I’m not the only one who noticed this bug and that it gets fixed soon cuz I really like that shower but I’ll deal with a none university one for now. 

    Long story short: These two showers have the normal options for Taking an Inspired, Energized, Flirty (only available in the InvisaShower), and Normal Shower. I would like to see ALL the Pirate Day options available during pirate day on these two University stand alone showers.
