I tested this yesterday with 4 Sim while working while my active Sim was in Granite Falls. I can't really test bladder as most of my Sims have SteelBladder. Hunger was not an issue though
Maybe Granite Falls vacation is different ? I had no issue, they all took care of their needs, not right away but no one got really miserable.
I'll test again on a community lot.
I know this is an old issue, but I've actually started experiencing it since the most recent patch - both for Sims at work and school. They won't take care of bladder or hunger needs at all until they come home. I keep using the fill needs cheat to get around it, but it's really annoying. I'm not using any mods or custom content - just the vanilla game with all expansions & stuff packs.
I am having the same issue but it only started recently. I can send my active Sim to other community lots and even Granite Falls, but when they go to work and I follow them (the Doctor's career requires you to play the "I'm a doctor for the day" mini game in order to advance their career) the Sims left at home who have work later in the day don't care for themselves when at work.
For me it's only happening when I go with my Sims to a community lot, then go home with the one that goes to work earlier and leave the one that goes later at a community lot.
There's definitively something going on but it looks like it's a bit different for everyone.
Thanks for your reports
