[NEEDS INPUT] [V] Cannot Assign Beds to Vampires

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? 1.58.69.1010
What expansions, game packs, and stuff packs do you have installed? Discover University, Island Living, Seasons, Cats & Dogs, City Living, Get Together, Get to Work, Realm of Magic, Strangerville, Parenthood, Vampires, Dine Out, Spa Day, Outdoor Retreat, Moschino Stuff, Laundry Day Stuff, Toddler Stuff, Bowling Night Stuff, Kids Room Stuff, Romantic Garden Stuff, Movie Hangout Stuff, Spooky Stuff
Steps: How can we find the bug ourselves? Play with a vampire, either on their own or in a household with another non-vampire sim
What happens when the bug occurs? If playing in a household with only a vampire/vampires, when clicking on a bed, the Assign Bed option never comes up. The Assign Left/Right Side of Bed option also does not come up when clicking on double beds. If playing in a household with a vampire and also at least one non-vampire sim, those options will come up, but the vampire sim will not show as an option in the menu that comes up. The only sim/sims that show up in the menu to assign a bed to are non-vampires in the household.
What do you expect to see? To be able to assign beds to vampires
Have you installed any customization with the game, e.g. Custom Content or Mods? Yes
Did this issue appear after a specific patch or change you made to your system? Neutral/Not Sure 

‌

I thought I remembered being able to do this with a vampire household when it first became an option, but when I now go back to that very same household, the option no longer appears for them.

    @Kote-nox Could you make a separate thread for that bed ? That doesn't have anything to do with the vampires.

    @crinrict Maybe, I will test all the beds an all different types of sims (Ages, Ocult, etc) And make a list.

    This issue persists, but is more acute in Tiny Living. There is a work around, but it's a bit silly. If you cheat your way to Master Vampire, and give them level 3 "Perfect Sun Resistance" you can then assign them a bed. Don't ask me why it works, but it does. Just FYI.

    @MickCasanova : That's because, as it turns out, the time of day is a factor in bed assignment for vampires who don't have Perfect Sun Immunity!

    I accidentally discovered recently while playing the Vatores in my latest test save, that, in the middle of the night, Lilith suddenly appeared in the bed assignment window where she never did before! @simvasion suggested it was like similar issues where vampires can only do certain things at night, so I did some testing.

    In the Vatores' household, Caleb can always be assigned a bed, because he starts with Perfect Sun Immunity. Lilith can be assigned a bed in Forgotten Hollow between 6:00 PM and 6:00 AM, and between 8:00 PM and 5:00-6:00 AM(?) in Newcrest.

    Testing the official Virtuous Vampires household from the Gallery, Demitrius, Brandy, and Samantha didn't have the bed assignment option AT ALL until after 6:00 PM in Forgotten Hollow (I didn't test them in a different World, but I assume it's the same as Lilith above?). Interestingly, they passively claimed the sides of the beds I had them sleep in as part of the test...but that's something else entirely and probably By Design. 😉

    Anyway, simvasion said that this could be officially fixed by switching filters (namely, to the "allowVampires" one). Hope this helps this issue get addressed! 🙂
