Re: [FIXED] Sims age up/go back in age/days added/reduced

This issue has returned for me as of June 2023.
I had it previously but it was fixed with an update.
It returned and many sims who were not at the end of their long lifespan are aging up when entering their household to play. Elderly sims die instantly.

Has this problem returned?
I have all mods and cc out and have had for a while due to issues with infant care so this popped up again with no mods/cc on.

    As of July 2023, I've been having the same problem. I was into manage worlds for the first time in my new save (hadn't played for a long time before this so I can't tell whether it's a new problem or not) and when I went back to live mode and checked the calendar it was suddenly my sim's birthday. I was so confused because I check the calendar daily and I didn't remember noticing there was going to be a birthday any time soon. Then I unpaused and the next thing my sim did was aging up (at about 8 in the morning). I am certain my sim still had about 30ish days left in their young adult life when this happened. Now their life bar looks full and glowing. I exited without saving but I don't know what to do now. I do play on long life span and just really can't enjoy the game in normal life span so this has been fairly upsetting as all the solutions seem to be to set it to normal or/and turn aging off (but that would also remove a lot of important gameplay from the game especially in regards to neighbours). All the posts I can find on this issue seem to be from last year so I don't know if this came back with a recent update. I do not use mods and have never used them. Would like to know is anybody has found a viable solution.

    @Simmina33 I had to turn off aging... anytime it's on they all start auto aging and elders immediately die off. I got no response or any feedback when I reported it started up again. I wish EA would do a better job with these kind of more problematic bugs.
