[OPEN] Scenario: 'Power Couple' get divorced if one travels to another lot

Product: The Sims 4
Platform:Mac
Which language are you playing the game in? English
How often does the bug occur? Often (50% - 99%)
What is your current game version number? 1.83.24.1230
What expansions, game packs, and stuff packs do you have installed? EP: Get to Work, Get Together, City Living, Cats & Dogs, Seasons, Get Famous, Island Living, Discover University, Eco Lifestyle, Snowy Escape, Cottage Living GP: Spa Day, Dine Out, Vampires, Parenthood, Jungle Adventure, StrangerVille, Realm of Magic, Dream Home Decorator SP: Nifty Knitting, Tiny Living, Moschino, Laundry Day, Toddler, Fitness, Kids Room, Romantic Garden, Movie Hangout, Spooky Kits: Blooming Rooms
Steps: How can we find the bug ourselves? Start the new Scenario - Power Couple. Travel with both to a new lot Return one sim home, the other stays on the new lot. When home lot loads and only one sim is there, it will say "scenario complete" award points because the couple is now "divorced"
What happens when the bug occurs? Bug seems to not understand what divorce is? if one sim is away from home when the home lot loads the scenario is over. I started this scenario, if one person travels off the lot (ex both went to the gym, one went home) and we travel back to home lot but only 1 person is there it says "scenario complete" because they are "divorced" but one is just at the gym. Also occured when they both traveled to the ruins for a party, one went home early so I switched to them. As soon as the home lot loaded with only one sim (the other still at the ruins) it told me scenario over because they are "divorced"
What do you expect to see? I expect to have to literally divorce my two sims for them to count as divorced.
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? No

Tried with and without mods.

The scenario doesn't seem to understand what divorced is.

Edit By Crinrict:  Adjusted Title

  • Same, this have really put me off playing any of the scenarios for now. I was really pumped up to progress the story and then boom, my sims had an embarrassing conversation and I wanted them to have some space so I accepted an invite to go out to the lounge with a friend, as soon as my sim got there it said I completed the scenario and the progression was gone.... I closed the game and went to play something else because it really threw me off. I hope the devs are working on this issue. In the mean time I'm just gonna create my own scenarios.

    I recently attempted this scenario and had the same issue. I would load past files in a valiant effort to complete the scenario, only for the last issue on my list to occur. 

    • couple did not start off as married despite game saying they would be 
    • Automatic divorce if one member of the couple traveled to another lot
    • automatic divorce if I loaded the game while one spouse was home and the other was at work
    • scenario was marked complete after only one spouse made CEO (the other was only president) 
  • I have also had this problem with the power couple scenario on PC no mods. Once I had one travel to a community lot and it ended the scenario saying a sim was missing. Thankfully I was able to quit and pick back up from my last save and continue playing by avoiding having the sims travel without each other to community lots. However, the last time I saved my game one of the sims was at work and when I loaded up the game it immediately gave me the message that the scenario had ended and a required person was missing. Since this happened immediately upon loading the save I wasn't able to just go back which was very disappointing having spent some time on this scenario!
