[OPEN] [W] Celene Lopez not working at grimtooth bar

Product: The Sims 4
Platform:PC
Which language are you playing the game in? Italiano
How often does the bug occur? Every time (100%)
What is your current game version number? latest june patch (werewolves)
What expansions, game packs, and stuff packs do you have installed? all of them
Steps: How can we find the bug ourselves? move the grimtooth bar to another lot to use that nice mostly empty 50x40 lot and visit it with a sim
What happens when the bug occurs? Celene Lopez does not appear if you move the lot or make another bar in Moonwood Mill. Visiting the lot as it is spawns at least one townie bartender who just hangs around sniffing their pits and howling. Moving the bar lot or modyfing it causes Celene Lopez to not work there anymore, cease to offer lycantropy cure drinks and doesn't offer her flavor texts when asked about moonwood mill, resulting in immersion and gameplay loss of a special NPC. Supernaturals still spawn correctly however
What do you expect to see? I expect to always find Celene Lopez working in bars in Moonwood Mill to offer her unique interactions
Have you installed any customization with the game, e.g. Custom Content or Mods? Yes
Did this issue appear after a specific patch or change you made to your system? Neutral/Not Sure 

Only mod content I've started using are CC related to CAS items and removing them has no effect, no script mods or anything game altering or related to this pack in any way that I know of.
Honestly I find extremely odd to use one of the best/biggest lots of the werewolves game pack to house a very small bar and underground werewolf bunker, they could have easily fit it all in the 30x30 lot (which I did with minimal decor loss) and let us live our lumberjack/farming best life provided the unique characteristics of the grimtooth bar could be moved elsewhere. Moonwood mill is simply wonderful but having to decide between living in a cramped lot or lose gameplay and immersion elements is not a choice I'd want to make

    I was trying to do the same thing & have her date Lou but once it took her out of the Grimtooth Bar I was ready to make a whole new saved file now im trying to figure out how to get her back without doing that.

    @PipMenace That is the real issue that the other bartenders can't help with werebies. If they could this wouldn't be much of an issue to me

    @Jeremy_GoneWild I didnt know there was a cheat to place NPC back to their original occupations. Im tempted to do it but I dont use cheats for my main saved file 😩
  • @EsperAngel So I moved Celene in a house to have her Lou to date & it removed her from bartending Grimtooth Bar. It upset me soo much that im ready to make a brand new saved file because of it. Does anybody know how to to add her back in to the bar before I jump off the deep end? 🤔

    Future reference: If you want to have Celene date other sims, dont move her in!

    @PipMenace I tested this out & it was the same 2 bartenders there weren't her so the only option I got left is to make a brand new saved file
  • For me the problem is related to the nighborhood storys they implemented. I had the same problem with the magic mentors, now her and almost with Rory and Lou as well. Even the night stalker from the curse was put into an empty lot and constantly replaced. My whole list of fhouseholds is full of night stalkers that I keep deleting and no - I didnt break the curse!!

    Storys seem to  use homeless townies and put them into empty lots and making them unplayed households or even mixing the households, this seems to delete their special/hiddentrait. My Volkovs where all split through random households. I never ever touched Celene or the magic mentors but found them in lots that where empty before. I even turned storys off but this "feature" still trashes every of my gameplays with important NPCs just missing from what they are supposed to do or getting replaced without the things that makes the NPC special. 

    Storys was the biggest trash they could do if they couldnt even prevent important NPCs to be affected. Making a new save doesnt help because storys, even when turned off, messes with my households and townies.  I have no mods acitve that could affect stuff like this.

    I think these would probaby be hidden traits, rather than buffs (emotes), and it sounds like @LyssSimpatico used the MCCC mod to find Celene's hidden traits and then add them to Celene in another save. I hope that helps. I don't use MCCC, or any other mods, so I don't actually know how to go about doing it myself.
