Re: [FIXED] [HSY] Video Game Streamer: Not getting paid when working from home

@DestinysEcho Do other work from home jobs work for you ?

I'm a bit confused about this part

The notification pops up saying his job starts in an hour. It asks if I want to send him to work or work from home. The game then pays him $10 and says it is his salary from his previous shift.

So you do get paid ? For work from home tasks you are not paid right but have to wait till the next day.

    I haven't tried other work at home jobs yet. I am recovering from Covid and no energy. I was going to try them tonight.

    Sorry if I am confusing. Haven't been able to sleep in 5 days. 

    When the notification for work pops up, the game says the sim earned $10 as payment from the previous shift. The $10 never gets added to their household funds though.  Plus the sim is maxed level in the video game streaming career. ( she got promoted several times from going into work ).  She should be earning $61 an hour. So she should be getting $122 total. 

    So the game does realize that she did work from home. It shows all her tasks are completed. But when the time comes to get paid, a pop  up says it is only $10 instead of the $61 an hour. Plus that $10 is never added to her household funds.

    Hope that makes better sense!

    If she goes to work, everything is correct. She gets the full salary and it is added to her household funds.

    When I tested with the second save, the same thing occurred.  Working from home, The sim gets paid only $10 and it is never added to the household funds. Going to work for the 2 hours, he gets paid and it gets added to the funds.
