Get to work - Doctor career bug

I don't know what to do anymore -  my sim is a doctor, but every time I try to get accurate diagnose I am not able to. I always do every checkup, even multiple times (and successfully), including x-ray etc. The furthest I can get is a choice between two diagnoses + even if I get the diagnose right (after choosing randomly) the game doesn't count it into my goal for getting a promotion.

  • @evokejdou I think it's random. I saved the game when I had two diagnosis so I could go back and choose the other if it was wrong but when I reloaded I had just one diagnosis for something completely different.

    It did complete after the treatement.

  • @crinrict  So I unfortunately don't know how to share the game. However, I just tried to solve the problem and it's still not working. I managed to take some screenshots - this is after all the checkups, x-ray and running machine test. It's in Czech though haha.

    @evokejdou and if you choose one of the two from the second pic and you happen to be correct, it doesn't fulfill ?

    From what I remember, you need to choose a diagnosis and then provide the treatment (pill, shot, surgery) for that diagnosis to complete the performance goal. It's pretty rare to get just one possible diagnosis, so you will usually have to make a choice and hope you got it right. 

    I rely on one of the fansites (Carl's Sims 4 Guide) for extra help in making a good diagnosis when the game makes me choose. I still get it wrong sometimes, even with the extra information. 

    Hope that helps some. Good luck.

  • @crinrict  Yes, somehow I almost always get the wrong diagnosis (which could be just bad luck), but I once or twice got it right and I didn't get the progress in task for a promotion (the task of treating and diagnosing two patients).

  • @Sketch793  That's weird, I swear I could remember always getting only one possible diagnosis after all tests in the past, but maybe I remember it wrong. Though I think I was able to get only one diagnosis on lower levels of the doctor career easily. I will definitely try looking up the fansite. Thanks.
