Re: [FIXED] Weeding animation loops and weeds aren't removed

Same, it's happening to me since this latest patch. It's a brand new installation of TS4 on a new laptop (about two weeks maybe?). The weeds can't be cleared by my Sim and it's affecting plants both in and out of planters. Putting them in household inventory and taking them out doesn't work.

No CC, no mods, no nothing.

Really frustrating as my Sim has the botanist aspiration...

    OK seriously TS4- I saw a reply here that said you could remove the weeds using testingcheats, so I figured I'd put my comment up to say I'm having this issue too, and then go back and do that.

    The weeds grow back within SECONDS of me removing them! There's nothing I can do! It literally just sets the plant straight back to having weeds. My game is basically broken at this point, given this is my botanist Sim.

    Well done, EA. Guess I'm uninstalling to make room for something else.

    Someone said earlier that they had tested the weeding issue and found that plants that are undercover and in season seem to weed fine but those that are undercover and not in season seem to have the issue - I have tested this today as all of my plants are in planters and undercover and this seems to be the case. The plants that should not be in season if you shift click, then go to gardening preferences, then weeds, then mulched or weed free it helps for a while. Does not stop it fully as they do eventually come back.

    No, cheats don't work, it comes back immediately for me. As soon as I take the game off pause the weeds are back ☹️
