[OPEN] [RGSP] Wishing Well Ghost child turned back to human/No more children

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? 1.110.265.1030 DX11
What expansions, game packs, and stuff packs do you have installed? Werewolves, Vampires, Pets, Spooky Stuff, Romantic Garden, Realm of Magic, Parenthood, Knitting, First Pet, Island Living, Horse Ranch, Growing together, Get Famous, Cottage Living, Backyard stuff, Crystal Creations
Steps: How can we find the bug ourselves? Play a child ghost given from the wishing well in Romantic Garden pack. (Most negative moodlet for Wishing Well then ask for a child, will be given a ghost child)
What happens when the bug occurs? My ghost child is a ghost in CAS, on Main Menu Load Game photo, and Manage Worlds photo. When I actually play her in-game child is alive. She can't possess anything and has her color. This happened right after my game uploaded the new ghost update. Didn't have any problems prior. My guess is the new ghost update didn't account for prior made Wishing-Well-granted ghost children.
What do you expect to see? My ghost sim acting as a ghost, transparent, floating, and possessing.
Have you installed any customization with the game, e.g. Custom Content or Mods? Not now. I've removed them.
Did this issue appear after a specific patch or change you made to your system? Yes
Please describe the patch or change you made. The New Sims 4 update for Ghosts.

    I had this issue. They were death by Laughter from the well in my game. For now everyone who has this issue a work around with cheats. Give them either drowning or fire with "cas.fulleditmode" after using "testingcheats on" since those are the only ghost traits they can have. This wishing well hasn't been updated with the redone ghosts. It's bugged at the moment. Console players I understand you don't want to turn on cheats. Right now this is the only work around I have found.

    I think the salutation would be for ea to not restrict the death type trait by age

    I had this same problem, I wished for a child when the well was unhappy and my sim got the moodlet that they’re raising a ghost child but the child is alive. I was able to make them a ghost by using cas.fulleditmode but it’s still really ridiculous that the new ghost update broke the game this way.

    I'm having a similar problem with a ghost toddler I had in the world. I'm aware ghost toddlers aren't possible through vanilla gameplay, but they've always been possible and supported through cheats and it's really disappointing to suddenly lose a Sim I've had for years. Changing the death type to drowning or fire through CAS does nothing, she becomes alive when entering Live Mode. Killing her with console commands deletes her entirely instead of making her a ghost. Is there any way this could be fixed?
