Re: [FIXED] Phone Calls from Household Members

Product: The Sims 4
Platform:Sony Playstation 4
Which language are you playing the game in? English
How often does the bug occur? Rarely (0% - 9%)
What is your current game version number? SP21: 1.assets.live-sp21.101
What expansions, game packs, and stuff packs do you have installed? All packs except My Wedding Stories and Growing Together
Steps: How can we find the bug ourselves? Not sure, it's only happened once
What happens when the bug occurs? My Sim (who is currently still a Teen) was hanging out with the Wildfangs in Moonwood Mill, and suddenly received a pop-up message from her mother (not a text or call, just a pop-up like the event messages from exploring the tunnels) asking when she was going to visit home, and sort of implying that the Teen had moved out and not been in touch in a while. My Teen still lives in the same household as her mother, and was only gone for about 18 hours as I was attempting to have her quickly join the Wildfangs pack in only a couple of days.
What do you expect to see? not see this message until my sim actually moves out, i guess?
Have you installed any customization with the game, e.g. Custom Content or Mods? On console - never used.
Did this issue appear after a specific patch or change you made to your system? Yes
Please describe the patch or change you made. I assume this has something to do with the new base game update that came with Growing Together's release, as I have never seen this message before in all my years of playing this game, and it occurred only a few days after I installed that update.

Not sure if this is relevant, but this is a relatively new save, I only just started this save two days ago, and this occurred less than one week into the game (in-game-time)

i apologise for the poor quality of the image. I play on a console and as such have to take photos of my screen with a low-quality phone camera. I just hope you can read the text in the image.
