[SD] Sauna ghost can no longer absorb water

Hello all,

i just discovered a new bug, at least for me. My ghost (dead in sauna) don't have the option to absorb the puddles of water from the floor anymore. No cc or mod installed.

Product: The Sims 4
Platform: PC
Which language are you playing the game in? Italian
How often does the bug occur? always
What is your current game version number? last update PC: 1.109.207.1020
What expansions, game packs, and stuff packs do you have installed? all expansions but horse ranch, all game packs but  werewolf, all stuff packs 
Steps: How can we find the bug ourselves? play as ghost died in sauna
What happens when the bug occurs? the ghost don't have anymore the menu absorb on the puddle of water on the floor 
What do you expect to see? the option the ghost had in past: absorb the water on the floor
Have you installed any customization with the game, e.g. Custom Content or Mods? I removed all
Did this issue appear after a specific patch or change you made to your system? I discovered this bug in January 2017

I have a couple of ghosts. He died in the pool so when he walks he leaves puddles of water. She died in the sauna so she always needs water. They were perfect: he left water on the floor, she absorbed it instead of cleaning it.

I hope the bug gets fixed. I am very fond of my ghosts and would like to move them to Ravenwood with Life & Death Expansion Pack

Anyone have the same problem?

What i tried:

- I tried to move my ghost in another lot and come back to home;

- i reload the game;

- i repaired the game;

- i deleted the sims 4 folder under document, started the game, exit  and replaced the save game;

- i used the cheat reset sims

- i removed the ghost trait and enabled it again (traits.remove_trait steam -- traits.equip_trait steam)

- i saved the sims and started a new game, i putted it in a new map and new home.

I don't remember when i played with this family last time so i can't tell you when this problem started.

Edit By Crinrict: Removed tag to fit the current system.

    I've never heard of this so is this just in the sauna or with every puddle ?

    Was there an actual option you got when you clicked on the puddle ?

    Hello @crinrict probably i was not clear.

    When a sim die in sauna and he come back as ghost can absorb the puddles of water from the floor,

    Like when a toilet broken and there is some water on the floor,  this type of ghost have 2 options when you click on the the water: "clear" or "absorb".

    I had those options on my ghost in the past, now i have only the option "clear".

    Hi @Costa

    Willing to share your save game ?

    If so, please zip up this folder: documents\electronicarts\thesims4\saves and drop the file to this Mediafire-Link to upload.

    Please make sure to name the zip file with your user name.

    I have a lot of ground to cover currently and it would be great if I don't have to go through the process of getting a sauna ghost on my own :D

    Hello @crinrict ,

    here the link http://www.mediafire.com/file/v27f1c60r6r5x4i/costa.zip

    The ghost family live in Newcrest, Casper is the name.

    The male ghost dead by drowning and female ghost dead by sauna. So the male leave the puddles of water all around the house and the female should be have the absorb option on those puddles. But now she have only the option to clean.

    Let me know if you need further information and if the uploaded file is ok.

    Thanks

    @crinrict

    the most important issue is with restaurants. The food is poor or normal most of time also if the chefs are maximized. The restaurant is Hell's Kitchen in Oasis Springs map.
