[OPEN] [GT] Sims Can't Join Club Gathering During Work Hours

If a Sim takes a vacation day and wants to start a gathering during the usual work hours, it starts but they are unable to join it.  They can't get perks for their actions.  They are able to join once their work hours have passed.  They are also unable to end the club gathering.

My Sim's work status showing she is on vacation and her work hours:

When she starts a club during her work hours, she cannot join the club.  Note the hour she started the club gathering also.  This is what the club's UI looks like:

  • I think it's pretty normal (they are working after all), the weird thing is - some sims join despite of their working hours, and others don't come despite of being unemployed!

  • I've not have an issue with that.

    I am seeing some not coming but if my Sim takes the day off, I have no issues joining.

    I've seen similar reports at the official forum so there might be other factors to it.

    Did you leave another club and join that one ? Was it one you've created or a premade one ?

  • It was a club I created.  I didn't leave another club and join that one.  If you are asking if my Sim has ever left a club entirely, then yes, my Sim was left a club before.

  • I also have this but it was during working hours for that sim when she took a new job, so didn't go to work the first day with the lag between taking a job and starting the job, the gathering was at her house and as soon as the work hours where over she joined automatically.

  • The circumstances of my "me too" on this are that my Sim had not yet left for work but I cancelled her leaving for work and asked her to join the club gathering, and she was unable to.

  • Still having this glitch as of the February patch.  Deleted cache files and started a new game to verify.  The glitch also affects students during their school hours.

    I have this problem too. A sim can start a club gathering while on vacation during their normal work hours, but they can not join the club once they start the club. Though they still will do the club activities so it appears they are part of the club. One annoying thing I find since they can not join the club they cannot stop the club meeting.

    I have this problem too with my Doctor sim not being able to join the club meeting she started if she is on vacation during work hours.  I noticed that canelacaliente's sim is a Secret Agent.  I'm wondering since crinrict doesn't have this issue if maybe it has something to do with careers particular to Get to Work.  I haven't tested for this bug on other careers.
