I moved your post over to a different thread for this. This is for the toggle resetting when travelling.

The other was occurring before the E-Patch and I don't think it's the same issue.

If you clicked me too on the other thread, make sure to click me too here too.

@LadyDarkSorrow  I merged your post with the bug report

I played for a while last night, and the Wants/Fears reappear (despite the setting being toggled off) every single time a household loads.

It even happened at one point when I was playing two sims from a household who were on vacation in Granite Falls and when I had the remaining household members join the vacation everyone suddenly had Wants/Fears again. That doesn't even generate a loading screen - just loaded the additional sims.

It's a pretty annoying nuisance to have to keep going in and fixing it over and over again. I hope they can address this sooner than later.

All of the toggles in the settings are broken. I have 'bust the dust' switched on in pack settings; but I've not seen a single dust bunny appear even once all the way through spring. This is making the asperation 'perfectly pristine' impossible to achieve.

I strongly suspect this is related to the issue that more and more players have where the game will reset back to an earlier time. For some reason, TS4 can no longer retain information properly, to the point where no error messages are generated since the game has just completely lost the plot and has no idea anything problematic has even happened.

this is happening to me too, along with all of the "pack settings" for example animal aging, neighbourhood stories and NPC relationship autonomy. Turn it off, then it turns back on if my sim travels or I quit the game. 

3 weeks and they haven't even acknowledged that this is an issue they're actively trying to resolve. I still play my game even with this very inconvenient bug, as annoying as it is to have to re-disable it every time I return from CAS or start my game. But I'm going to say right now that there's no way I'm going to invest in Sims 5 if customers' bug reports are going to be ignored and simple bugs go unfixed. There was nothing wrong with Whims, and I wish they'd never changed the system. It's honestly pretty weak. Wants & Fears is a worse system than Whims was.

Same here.  Driving me crazy - I don't want - wants and fears active.  I disable it everytime but it just comes back on again - travelling - going into CAS - relogging.  Everytime I have to go into gameplay click the wants and fears box - apply - then click the wants and fears box off again - then hit apply.  They disappear until I do one of the above.  It's really annoying and spoils my gameplay having to keep interupting it to click these off!

Please fix!!!!! What are you waiting for, EA? 

I empathize fully. The ‘Fears’ glitch has made gameplay very unpleasant. 

Mine toggles on everytime I reload as well. But another part of the glitch I'm struggling with the most is when it is off my sims still gets scared of the dark (even when the wants and fears are toggled off), but now my sim gets "scared of the dark" during the day, outside all the time. So he's essentially scared all the time and can't do anything cause he's to scared. 

EA plays whack-a-mole with game-breaking bugs and expects us to just "hope the next update fixes it!" ever since this game came out. This is never going to change. EA will continue stringing us along until The Sims 5 comes out and then they will abandon this game as a broken buggy mess just like they did with The Sims 3. You are all better off uninstalling this game and never thinking about it again; that's what I'll be doing. Please do yourselves a favor and do not play the games-as-a-service Sims 5, it will be a giant scam and will probably be an even buggier mess than this broken game. Somebody else needs to pick up the gauntlet of dollhouse life simulator because this series has been a non-stop trainwreck and dumpster fire for well over a decade. I think even Paradox could do it better than EA.

Agreed. I’m just waiting for Paralives to come out at this point. As soon as it does I’ll be jumping ship because sims has become more stress than de-stress now.

I completely agree with you, and while I could very easily go into a rant on what I think of EA and their games I know most simply don't care so I won't bother. Too many people just tolerate this broken nonsense anyway, so they won't even see my point.
