[PH] Adopt as Caregiver

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? V1.80.69.1030
What expansions, game packs, and stuff packs do you have installed? All currently available to buy
Steps: How can we find the bug ourselves? Just have a toddler Sim, and a teen Sim. Play as the toddler, select the teen and choose "Adopt as Caregiver"
What happens when the bug occurs? Nothing happens, the teen Sim will just never be a caregiver to the Toddler Sim
What do you expect to see? I expect to see the "Remove as Caregiver" option after I select "Adopt as Caregiver" initially.
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? Yes
Please describe the patch or change you made. The most recent patch from 1.79 to 1.80

I have 2 teens, and 2 toddlers. Selecting either teen as either toddler and selecting "Adopt as Caregiver" doesn't seem to work. I first found the issue while using Mods/CC but I managed to get this problem without Mods or CC. I repaired the game, and one half of my issue solved itself (Which was that Adopt as Care Dependant wouldn't work) Though the Adopt as Caregiver still doesn't work. I have tried with 3 other households, all of them pre-made. 2 of them I had to modify to add teen/toddler. The one that wasn't modified was a Sulani household that already had a teen and a toddler. With all of these households, the problem still persisted.

I select to play as the toddler, and selecting any teen to adopt as caregiver. That doesn't work.

Thanks.

  • @DeadRevolution1 Could you please edit your post and fill out the bug form ? Seems you weren't prompted for it. Editing should help with that.
  • @crinrict It did work for teens before. I don't really understand your second question. Who else is it available for? As far as I know, teens cannot be a caregiver if you've got a toddler selected, click on a teen and choose "Adopt as Caregiver" Though it works if you've got a teen selected and click on a toddler to choose "Adopt as Care Dependant"

  • @crinrict Yeah, I just tested it with a brand new family that I just made that contains all life stages. When the toddler is selected as the playable Sim, "Adopt as Caregiver" doesn't work. The other way; "Adopt as Care Dependant" does work

    I've also just tested on a new save file on a different computer, and I got the same issue
