[AA] Several issues with scheduling getaway at my own Residential lot

Hi there, 

I just started a new save file and I found an issue where I downloaded my backup Custom Venue lot from my Gallery. I placed as Custom Venue first as I wanted to save my customised schedule first so once I saved it to my preset, I changed lot type to Residential, so I can move in (as I intended to play like Addam Commune household where the owners host getaway on their own Residential lot).

Now I moved in to that lot. The place changed to Custom Venue in background and spawn sims with roles as I saved my schedule which is unexpected. Normally, a sim can't move in to a Custom Venue lot as it's not Residential lot (I tried with pre-made Custom venue like Camp Gibbi Gibbi, it shows warning that it's not Residential lot).

The lot type in BB can't be changed. It's grey out. As a result, my sim owns Custom Venue through this bug hole. 

This is not the first time that I found  issues when I made my sims host getaway at their own Residential lot. In my other save (I might have already deleted since it was before I reinstalled the game), I made my sim hosted a recurring getaway at their Residential lot. It was not full day recurring since I played pretend as my sim own an office / a co-working space / an artist studio. I set start time at 9am and end at 9pm so there's no other sim sleep over. I set it recurring Mon-Fri (sometimes Fri-Sun, depends, but not the whole week). I can only create the getaway only if I choose 1 night. If I choose more than 1 night, the save (tick) button will grey out.

On the calendar, there will be only one scheduled getaway on the first day (for example, I set it on Monday night, so there will be an event schedule on Tuesday only even I choose Mon-Fri). And if the getaway is ended, my sim will not sleep (if I command to sleep, they will wake up immediately regardless), it's like there has been stuck on schedule so I had to rotate to play another household. (which I found another issue but let me finish with getaway at residential lot issue first)

(I noticed that there won't be loading screen when getaway starts at the same lot, but there will be loading screen everytime when getaway has ended by the end of the day.)

Most of the time, if the getaway on the first day (let's say Tuesday 9am-9pm) has ended, the getaway on the next day will automatically start with pop-up if I clicked ok. Sometimes there's no pop-up at all. it's just like the system forgot to recurring my getaway.

Sometimes there's pop-up, I clicked ok, but there's no Getaway panel on the left hand side at all. But there were other sims spawn. Weirdly, I made my custom role as a Studio Owner but other sim took over so I did have any role at all.

I later found out that another household that I play (it was a fairy [EBN] has their own Small Business [BH] in their Residential lot) lost their business. So it was blank in the business panel like my sim has not business before and has to register again. I went to manage world, I found out that the lot still has business tied with. It was very weird. Once I tried to figure on the Manage World, there's only 1 option is to Sell the lot (I can't remember the name of command but the icon is the signage like a For Sale sign). So I clicked it, and the the world (Nordhaven) is not clickable anymore. I switched to the other worlds, they were still clickable but when I went back to Nordhaven, is was not clickable at all. I had to relaunch the game. And maybe, all the pre-made households that have operating business (like Koopman, Sarpong, Loden) all lost their business. I just found out few days later so I guess it was from that moment. I have no idea what caused this. Is it possible that I enabled "Limit Fairy in Innisgreen only"? But I can still play fairy sim as fairy form outside Innisgreen. It should not effect to the Active Household right?
