[UNSURE] Multi-select inventory method can't transfer between storage locations.

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? 1.63.133.1020
What expansions, game packs, and stuff packs do you have installed? All
Steps: How can we find the bug ourselves? Have items in sim's inventory such as harvested plants or books. Go to refrigerator or bookshelf and "Open". Multi-select items.
What happens when the bug occurs? Multi-selected items cannot be transferred to a refrigerator or bookshelf store. Only get options to Favorite or Sell. Not to transfer to another storage. Drag and drop doesn't work either.
What do you expect to see? Ability to transfer items from sim's storage to another container.
Have you installed any customization with the game, e.g. Custom Content or Mods? Not now. I've removed them.
Did this issue appear after a specific patch or change you made to your system? Yes
Please describe the patch or change you made. 1.63.133.1020

Fails with refrigerator and bookshelves. Only get option to favorite and sell. Not to transfer to another storage.

Drag and drop works when NOT multi-selected, which kinda defeats the purpose of the new multi-select inventory method.

  • @Psychotps I've been having this issue too, I thought it was just me. Same exact issue/results. I feel like that's a huge missing element if it's not a bug.
  • I was excited to see the multi-select feature because I thought I would finally be able to drag groups of items to the sims (or storage) that use them, but it only seems to allow me to sell them. :/

    @mrgoatwaffle1 Yea, the multi-select is useful for selling things in bulk, but for only that? There are lots more places it'd be a lot more useful. So, I'm considering it a bug.

    Steps: How can we find the bug ourselves? Multiselect items in a sims inventory, try to move them to another sim or the fridge.
    What happens when the bug occurs? Items cant be moved.
    What do you expect to see? The items should be moved like we can with individual stacks.

    Multiselect is nice when selling multiple items. But why does it not work to move items? Why can I move single stacks but not multiple? Bug or oversight I dont know.

  • I am assuming it is an oversight which is extremely frustrating. Moving stacks one at a time is so tedious. I have yet to really hear much from others on this so I think they may have made the multi-select for just selling but IMO missed adding the more important option of using multi-select to move inventories around, etc. LittleMsSam does have a mod called Transfer inventory that adds an option when clicking on the fridge, bookshelves, chests, or flower arranging tables to transfer all of those items that apply (ingredients, collectibles, flowers) at once but that is the closest thing I have found so far to help in any way.
