Sims 4 GTW: Detective Career Go on Patrol Bugged

Issue


When I send my sim on Patrol the game randomly selects a residential lot. At the residential lot my sim cannot enter the house. Other sims in the neighborhood may go in but my detective sim cannot enter. There is no "Knock on Door" available. This bug is random and only occurs when the game selects a residential lot for my sim to patrol. The only reasonable work around is to immediately send the sim back to the station because he cannot complete any of the patrol tasks.

  • First, thanks for using the template. Gave you XP for that.

    Second, you don't really need to go into houses when your on patrol. You can just walk around the neighborhood and do the tasks that are asked there (I mean you need to talk to Sims and give them scold them or whatever it was).

    There should always be plenty of Sims on the streets or do you not have any ?

  • I tested this in my game and I don't have the option to go inside the houses.  I don't think this is a bug and it is by design because I am still able to give citations and talk to Sims in the open area.  The tasks are still fulfilled without me going inside the houses.  I have done the job before and I was never able to go inside of residential houses.

    Please answer the questions:

    Were you able to go inside of residential houses before?

    Are there NPC Sims in the angry emotion walking around the open area?

    Are the NPC Sims in the angry emotion constantly going inside of the house where you can't reach them?
