  • I ended up buying my teen a regular trashcan just so she could take out the trash a bunch of times for this badge, as she's a teen living alone.

    Please fix this problem.  I had throw out 6 full plates of edible food and take out trash each time to fill this requirement for my teen.

    Yeah, I have the nano trashcan (I got addicted to those when there was the bug where outside trashcans overflowed and the suggested workaround was to sell your full trash can and buy a new one) and usually temporarily replace the trash cans, then make my teen repetitively get chips and then cancel, throw them away, and empty the trash.  In one save I have a retail lot that I send the kids to for this, lol.

    I just tried having a teen in scouts for the first time and noticed this bug.  Hopefully it gets fixed eventually.

  • Same problem with me.  Maids never clean dust.  It was my understanding that maids were supposed to autonomously vacuum with their own vacuum regardless of whether the household owns one or not. 

  • I had the same problem, one way to really work around it is to make sure you don't have a dishwasher and a garbage can in the house first. Make a party sized meal ( I had my sim make dumplings for 8) have them pick up a serving, then in their inventory click on the plate and select clean up, the sim will throw the food away, wash the plate, then once their done, click on the garbage and select empty trash, repeat 8 times and your sims will earn their Civic Responsibility and their Good Deeds badges!

  • Still occurring Sept 2023. I ended up needing to find a random toddler and had to entertain them.

    2024 Still an issue. I ended up putting a dumpster on the property (teen living alone) and then meal diving and throwing out the spoiled food into a regular trash bin and emptying the trash bin.

    On a side note I got a crystal while diving for meals.
