    @Qlivia22 Looks like the Sim used to be Patchy. He has the scarecrow trait which probably accounts for the behavior.

    Can you try playing him and enter the following cheat in the cheat bar (unsure if you need testingcheats or not)

    traits.remove_trait scarecrow

    This should fix him

Product: The Sims 4
Platform:Microsoft XBOX One
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? 1.32.85.2300
What expansions, game packs, and stuff packs do you have installed? Island Living, Discover University, Get to Work, City Living, Vampires
Steps: How can we find the bug ourselves? 1. Meet someone new from Discover University Lot 2. Invite the "townie" from Discover University to a date on a Sulani lot
What happens when the bug occurs? I invited someone I met from a public area on one of the Discover University lots to a date on a Sulani lot. It ends within 30 seconds or so and says date unsuccessful, no rewards received. It also doesn't check off the goals of the date as I complete them. If I invite a Sulani resident to a date on the same lot, it works just fine.
What do you expect to see? I expect the dates to work on Sulani lots with NON Sulani residents.
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? No

Is this a bug, or are we really not able to invite sims from other worlds to dates on our Sulani lots??? I've never used any mods or any cheats and I am on Xbox One.

Come to find out, it's that specific townie that I cannot complete any dates with at all. Anywhere. Arjuna Perez from Discover University. A little blonde in a skirt and a purple sweater that looks like Paris Hilton lol. Any ideas what is going on? Any fixes? I hope someone still reads these forums.

    @ninjameow312 There are certain Sims that you can't invited cause of their traits. Don't know if that's a premade ? One of the professors maybe ?

    @crinrict I can invite them though, it just doesn't let me do anything once I get there. What do you mean by a pre-made sim? And no, it sure seemed like a student. She was out working on the rockets with other students. I don't appreciate this being marked as "solved" when it definitely is not solved.

    @ninjameow312 I merged your post with another thread on the same issue that was marked solved by the OP.

    That's exactly what happens though. the Sim probably has a trait that prevents them from being on a date so while you can invite them, they just leave.

    If you upload the Sim to the gallery, I can take a look what hidden traits they have

    @crinrict How would I check their hidden traits? I don't know how to upload an unplayed Sim to the gallery, so if we can skip all that I can look and see. Thanks for the help.

    @ninjameow312 Unfortunately you need a mod to do it, hence not possible on XB1.

    To Upload:

    1. Load the household manager from Map View (icon in the upper right corner called household manager)
    2. Find the family the Sim is in (hopefully it's not a hidden Sim ... if so, see below)
    3. Load the family in CAS from the household manager and upload
    4. If the Sim is in a hidden household, you basically need to be fast. Invite the Sim over and as soon has he remotely appears, pause the game. Then enter testingcheats true in the cheat console (make sure to do this on a backup of your save so you don't loose achievements on the save). Then shift-click on the Sim and choose modify in CAS. Upload from there.
