Re: [ARCHIVED] Discovery Quests won't go away/Constant Messages popping up
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? 1.110.311.1020
What expansions, game packs, and stuff packs do you have installed? For Rent, Vintage Glamour, Toddler Stuff, Tiny Living, Spa Day, Seasons, Romantic Garden Stuff, Realm of Magic, Poolside Splash Kit, Perfect Patio, Parenthood, My First Pet, Modern Luxe, Luxury Party Stuff, Laundry Day, Island Living, Home Chef Hustle Stuff, Holiday Celebration, Growing Together, Get Together, Get to Work, Get Famous, Fitness Stuff, Eco Lifestyle, Dream Home Decorator, Discover University, Dine Out, Decor to the Max, Country Kitchen, Cottage Living, Cool Kitchen, City Living, Cats & Dogs, Bust the Dust, Industrial Loft, Blooming Rooms, Bathroom Clutter, Life of the Party, Up all Night, Gnome on the Go
Steps: How can we find the bug ourselves? Start a household, then move that household to a different map. Upon arriving at the new map, it will start popping up Discovery Quests.
What happens when the bug occurs? No matter what you do or what settings are turned off, the Discovery Quest prompts keep appearing. They appear in the top-left of the screen and also in the notifications. I currently have 3 that keep appearing. If you trash them with the icon on the top-left, they disappear, then immediately re-appear with in 5 seconds. Even after turning off ALL SETTINGS in Tips & Tutorials in the save file, they keep coming back. If you turn off "Enable Discovery Quests" they still come back. If I switch between household members it also restores itself onto my screen in the top-left. Within 1 min of trying to close this I had about 30 notifications on the wall as well.
What do you expect to see? I expect that when I "trash" or "disable" something in the game that it does NOT come back onto my screen. If I disable something in the game settings, I expect it to actually remove that from my game and not keep cluttering the screen. The game is unplayable until this is fixed. I have been playing for nearly 2,000 hours and have never experienced this until today, and I have moved households from map to map before and this never showed. This only appeared after the Reaper Rewards went away, which was similarly annoying and unable to be removed.
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? No
