[OPEN] [CoL] Routing failure if Sims try to use cross-stich basket from table

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? 1.97.62.1020
What expansions, game packs, and stuff packs do you have installed? Cottage Living, Seasons, Growing Together, High School Years, City Living, Get Together, Snowy Escape, Get to work, Discover University, Spa Day, Vampires, Realm of Magic, Parenthood, Outdoor Retreat, Dine Out, Movie Hangout Stuff, Holiday Celebration Pack, Bowling Night Stuff
Steps: How can we find the bug ourselves? Get a cross-stitch kit and not be able to use it
What happens when the bug occurs? My sims will raise their arm and the footsteps bubble (the animation sims make when they can't do something) will appear.
What do you expect to see? My sims being able to use the cross-stitch kit again.
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. I don't know if the bug is because of the most recent patch or the installation of the growing together pack.

I've been playing my current Cottage Living save for 2-3 years (on generation 2) and my sims used to be able to use the cross-stitching kit until now. I'm not sure if it's because of the most recent patch or because of the growing together expansion pack. 

Edit By Crinrict: Added Tag to Title, adjusted title

  • My sims can cross stitch if I put the kit on the floor. There is no option to cross stitch from the inventory. Is there any way to do it from the table?

    @Pinkvelvet98 I'm guessing that table is simply blocked somehow. If you put a table in front of your Sim and place it there, does that work ?
  • It doesn’t work either. I’ve tried moving them out and back to the house, repairing the game, resetsim, selling and buying back the cross stitch kit and the table, and reloading an older save but nothing works.

    @Pinkvelvet98 Gave this a short test and I can't use them on the table either. Are you sure it worked on the table before ?
  • Yes it used to work on the table. I’ve been playing this save for 2-3 years.

  • can definitely confirm it used to work when placed on tables, now sims suddenly act like they can't reach it unless it's on the floor. moving it to counters also doesn't fix it :/ 

  • @crinrict also confirming it worked before. seems like it wont work on end tables, coffee tables, but will work on some accent tables.

    This is still happening, and I noticed I can't "Put in Inventory" when it's on a table either. I also had the problem when I placed it on a dresser.

    I’m having the same problem. My Sim was able to cross stitch with it sitting on a table. I went to play this family again and now I can’t use the Crosstitch with it sitting on the table anymore for some reason
