Solved

'Harvest all' and 'water all' only work on one plant

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? 1.77.146.1030
What expansions, game packs, and stuff packs do you have installed? Get To Work Pack.EP01 Expansion Pack Get Together Pack.EP02 Expansion Pack City Living Pack.EP03 Expansion Pack Seasons Pack.EP05 Expansion Pack Island Living Pack.EP07 Expansion Pack Discover University Pack.EP08 Expansion Pack Eco Lifestyle Pack.EP09 Expansion Pack Holiday Pack Pack.FP01 Free Stuff Vampires Pack.GP04 Game Pack Parenthood Pack.GP05 Game Pack Jungle Adventure Pack.GP06 Game Pack Realm of Magic Pack.GP08 Game Pack Tiny Living Stuff Pack
Steps: How can we find the bug ourselves? Attempt to harvest all / water all - any interaction which involves more than one plant - this used to be a Vampire bug, but it was fixedin 2018, but now, after CL it's back, except now it's affecting every type of sim (I haven't tested with mermaids, but all other varieties) Also I've tried to make this report 4 times now but your page wasn't letting me get past its preview post page???
What happens when the bug occurs? After harvesting one plant, you get the "that's all, folks"' notif off of a harvest all command - water all fails after one watering. No difference between plants in the ground and in planters.
What do you expect to see? All plants tended/harvested
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. CL patch broke it - was a new save then

This is super annoying

Even Patchy does 0 to take care of plants (he's still a fairly alright maid, though he seems to prefer blicbloc....)

I did delete LTC (I always delete the local thum & avatar cache when I mess with mods/cc), but will try to repair game.

@Jeanieraiy It's been working fine for me so question: Did you try a game repair/delete localthumbcache file after removing mods ?

This is also happening in my game and repairing the game allowed one Sim to work properly when selecting "Harvest All"/"Water All"/"Weed All" again, but did not fic the issue for any other sims in the family.

I have the exact same problem in October 2023, happened after the latest patch update (before Home Chef Hustle). My sim completely stops, doesn't move or do anything else after harvesting the first plant, and I have to reset her to get her to move again.

Hi @jennamarbleslove. Do you have mods or CC in your Mods folder? If so, test without. Exit Sims 4 then drag your Mods folder to your desktop. Then delete the file called localthumbcache from Document > Electronic Arts > The Sims 4. If you think you might accidentally forget to exit without saving after testing, copy your Saves folder to your desktop too, to back it up. Now open Sims 4 and see if you still have the problem. If you don't, you can start the process of figuring out what from your Mods folder was causing it.
