Instruments are missing interactions for specific Sims

@DT4750 Guess this was a separate issue then ? Someone else reported this but it was unclear i it was related to the other issues.
Did you not have it before the patch yesterday ?

EDIT: I found the post: https://answers.ea.com/t5/Bug-Reports/FIXED-Sims-reset-drop-action-missing-pie-menu-when-playing-an/m-p/13523794#M271842 but the user confirmed it was fixed or them as well. Could you maybe try a game repair ? Will test this later on my own game.

EDIT: Cheated my Sim to level 3 and I get the option fine. Could you test another Sim ?

I'm not sure about the February 27 patch.

I did some test today in the same household from yesterday (8 sims) and i created a room with 8 pianos. One of my sims (piano skill 5) didn't have the option to practice piano in the menu. After clicking on another piano, the option appears. Then the 8 sims could practice (including the one with skill level 3).

So it seems that the option to practice disappear at random.

@crinrict today it did, yesterday the sim with level 3 couldn't practice in 2 different pianos (the cheap and the expensive one from base game)

Tested this with the City Living keyboard and all family members had the practice option, including one with level 6 piano and a 3 star celebrity.

Platform:Mac
Which language are you playing the game in? English

Did this issue appear after a specific patch or change you made to your system? No

After removing all of the Sim's sheet music (which I did as I had several unfinished songs, not knowing I was starting a new one every time I clicked on "Write Song"), the options available at the piano become exclusively Practice, Play Concerto and Play Song, regardless of mood. The option to write a song is entirely missing. In addition, the option to license songs is entirely missing from the mailbox's action menu.

This situation makes progressing in the Musical Genius aspiration completely impossible.

To affirm this was a problem with the Sim itself and not my copy of the game, I used the cheat stats.set_skill_level Major_Piano 8 on a separate Sim and confirmed all the missing options were available to them. I have attempted to set the bugged Sim's piano skill back to 8 and it made no difference.

The bugged Sim's characteristics are: Musical Genius aspiration, Music Lover, Creative, Muser.

Attatched are screenshots of A: the bugged Sim's action menu when interacting with the piano and B: the other Sim with the cheated in piano at level 8's action menu when interacting with the piano.

Edit By Crinrict: Removed status tag. Please only add pack tags yourself. Thank you.

All shows up for me: 

Also tried other pianos.

Does it work for you if you place her in a new save ?
