[OPEN] Inconsistent time while travelling
In all my Sims 4 games there are here and there time problems while travelling. When a sim returns from a public lot he jumps back several hours in time. If he has made skill progresses on the public...

@crinrict Rosemow saw my post over in the Sims forums and pointed me here. I have experienced this issue 2x recently (that I've noticed), and it's always when I am leaving a restaurant to go home. They'll be at the restaurant for about 6 hours, then when they get home, it's almost exactly the same time as when they left for the restaurant before. Their needs are consistent (i.e. if they were exhausted when they left the restaurant, they are still exhausted when they get home even if it's 7 PM not 1 AM). I don't know about skill gain because my sims didn't gain any skills while out to eat.
No mods or CC. I have all DLC and am on the most recent patch. 1 time was at a Maxis restaurant, the other time was one from the gallery. Neither restaurant is owned by my sims. This was in 2 different saves. I repaired my game and reset my folders in between the 2 incidents for another more serious issue. While that issue was solved by the reset, this one was not.

Could you upload your save and any lastexception files you might have ?
I will look when I get home tonight. I've been playing a different save this week (for a challenge), but I know I still have the most recent save where this occurred.
@crinrict you can find my save here: https://www.dropbox.com/s/3jfa172ooa04prk/Dine%20Out%20Time%20Warp.zip?dl=0
I haven't touched it since last week (it was created about 2 weeks ago for Boost Week), but I resaved it today so I could find the right file to upload. I also included last exception files that occurred around that date. The restaurant I went to this time was from the gallery - it's the Ice Cream Shop in Newcrest. Let me know if you need anything else!
@alanmichael1 thank you for your help. It is a pretty new save, and I had recently repaired my game before starting the save, so I don't think that's what it was. However, I am not sure whether I accepted an invitation from another sim or not. If it happens again, I will definitely pay more attention and post my findings.
Thanks.
Save forwarded
- Hello Minniemouse,
this has happened a few times in my games, too. It may relate to the following patterns:
1) Your Sim gets an invitation to spend the evening at a community lot - but the invitation comes in the morning. Don't accept it.
2) You have just installed a new patch. Try repair game.
3) The save is very old.
4) I also have a i5-processor and a Nvidia card.
Best regards!
