Re: [OPEN] [SE] Workaholic Sim keeps trying to leave lot to 'Go To Work'
Product: The Sims 4
Platform:PC
Which language are you playing the game in? English
How often does the bug occur? Every time (100%)
What is your current game version number? 1.71.86.1020
What expansions, game packs, and stuff packs do you have installed? Every single expansion pack. Every game pack except star wars. And the stuff packs including romantic garden, spooky, kids room, toddler, laundry day, my first pet, mochino, and nifty knitting.
Steps: How can we find the bug ourselves? My sim is level 7 of the charity organizer career. Recently she got the workaholic lifestyle. Bug occurs when she is tense from not being at work. She then goes to work on off hours. I have no mods.
What happens when the bug occurs? My sim won't stop going to work on off hours. I'll try to cancel her being at work on off hours but it just immediately makes her go back. I can't make her do anything else. I can play with other sims in the household but the second I try to interfere with her the game quits out. Her actual hours for work started but I can't make her go because she is stuck on the off hours action. I've tried to repair the game, make sure it's updated, and restarting/shutting off my computer. I've also tried restarting the sim but it just makes my game crash as any other attempt to break her from this does. Don't know what to do. Hope this doesn't make it impossible to play game.
What do you expect to see? I expect to be able to have my sim go to work and not constantly be wanting to go to work when she is not there. Anytime I leave her without anything in her queue she goes to work. I think it shouldn't be so in control of her life. I also obviously expect my game to not shut down every time I try to break her from the workaholic spell. I imagine the workaholic lifestyle is what is bugged here. This makes it impossible to play. Don't know if I need to use a cheat to remove the lifestyle or just remove her from the household. Neither are great options. I won't play the game for a while until this is fixed.
Have you installed any customization with the game, e.g. Custom Content or Mods? Never used.
Did this issue appear after a specific patch or change you made to your system? Neutral/Not Sure
I can't add the screen recording I took because it is too big a file i guess. It just showed my sim gone at work on off hours and every time I click the action to cancel it gets replaced over and over until suddenly the game crashes.
