Goaled events not working
I'm losing my mind over this. I can't check or uncheck the activity events; they no longer work. I've tried everything: deleting mods, clearing the cache, repairing the game, repairing the EA app, un...
This is the most recent post I could find on issues with Goaled Events.
I've read this is not a bug. Although, I don't fully understand how it isn't one. I hadn't the option to tick on goaled event.
I'd planned birthday parties for various child sims in my played household which had gone quite well UNTIL.. I'd started joining my teen(s) to high school. Evidently, high school attendance is considered a goaled event if you go along with them??
So after which, I couldn't plan birthday parties for each of my household's remaining child sims as these fell on weekdays because, 'you cannot have more than one goaled event in a sim day'. I don't recall the exact message but that's essentially what it'd read when hovering over the unavailable option to mark it as one. So I had no option to tick on a goaled birthday party event following the game's apparent 'join to high school' event. I hadn't realised.
To clarify..if you want to throw a bash for your child's (or toddler's) birthday, you can't do this if you choose to follow a household teen to high school? Is this similarly so if you choose to follow an employed adult in one of the GTW careers? Is this accurate? This is what I'd experienced in game... but this isn't a bug? Is EA/The Sims 4 team sure about that?
@SovereignSims Is this events issue happening for you with no mods/CC?
I apologise for the delay. Thanks for your response.
I have five children in total on this particular save (haha! don't ask). I did have mods installed as usual during the first three children's parties. As stated, the first two had gone marvellously with mods installed. However, only the first child had begun attending high school. The second child's party had taken place on a weekend, so there was no school attendance.
The third child's party showed no goals. That's where the problem had begun. So of course, yes, I'd returned to a previous save to retest it without mods installed. I should've been clear. I always try this if my game presents with any issue (also sure to bin cache).
I'd also tried the fourth child's party without mods installed. The same problem had occurred. That's when I'd exited without saving and tried to replan the event. I'd noticed the game did not allow two events in the same day. These were taking place on weekdays when teens had been attending high school, so I can only presume the game considers high school a goaled event.
@SovereignSims Thanks! I've moved you over to Game Issues for more follow-up there.
Thanks so much!
