Re: [OPEN] Cant have more than 7 Sims in household

Product: The Sims 4
Platform:PlayStation 5
Which language are you playing the game in? Deutsch
How often does the bug occur? Every time (100%)
What is your current game version number? GP12: 1.assets.live-gp12.58
What expansions, game packs, and stuff packs do you have installed? Expansions: all game packs: all, except the Star Wars thing stuff: all, except fitness, gardening and the luxury party
Steps: How can we find the bug ourselves? Try to add a sim or a pet or a „science baby“ or make a baby with seven sims in your household. I checked doubletime nobody is already pregnant.
What happens when the bug occurs? You can‘t add anyone to your household.
What do you expect to see? You get the „Your household is already to big“-textbox and you can’t click the possibilities.
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? Neutral/Not Sure 

I can no longer have eight Sims in my household. No Sim is pregnant, no pets either. I can't move anyone in, adopt a child, add a pet, add a science baby, etc. Even with seven household members, the game claims the household is too big.

Maybe it appeared the for the first time after I bought the bowling pack a few days ago but I am not sure.

  • Hello, i see that you have the same issue as I had. I tried moving 1 sim out. And move a random sim in. Then try adopting one if that won’t work I tried again but with a different sim. Eventually I found that a townie I married, was the issue. I still don’t know why but I moved her out and then I could adopt and try for a baby so maybe that will work for you too.

    Thank you for your tip! 🙂 Maybe this will work because my sim is married to a towny. I will try it.
