Nooo, neither the washing machine nor the hamper have the option to choose wash clothes, when i click on the washing machine or the hamper, it only allows me to upgrade it and doesnt have any other options…
I can confirm this bug, in any save, with or without mods, it happens in certain random conditions when the washing machine has clothes and there's a lot change, or household rotation, and the washing machine loses the clothes inside. Then it wrongly assumes there are clothes and allows the interaction to start washing, and if a butler, maid or a Sim autonomously starts the washing machine, it'll finish the cycle and get stuck with only the Upgrade option. Sometimes the Upgrade option will be greyed out telling there are clothes inside and not even moving the washing machine to the household inventory will fix this: just selling and buying another one will be the solution. As the washing machine assumes it has clothes inside, it'll not have options to add clothes from any clothing pile or hamper. If you move clothes inside the washing machine before you start washing, because it's actually empty, it'll work correctly and the bug won't show up.
If the bug has already happened, and you didn't move the clothes inside, and the upgrade option is showing up, your washing machine can't be used anymore, the only solution is to sell it and buy another one.
hi! 🙂 I created a save file with this bug present: https://drive.google.com/drive/folders/1D8fxxAXl-wGyJLn-Tst8q3OgKkGUq3FV?usp=sharing
it's the Slot_00000006.save, the one named Washing machine only upgrade
all my washing machines in the lot are without clothes but they show only the Upgrade option.
