Issue with Active Careers and High School

Hey!

I have both the Get to Work and High School Years expansion packs, and I’m currently playing with a household that includes a teen and a doctor. Every morning, the game prompts me to join one of them at work or school. However, when I click “Yes,” it takes me to a loading screen and then drops me into the world map instead of the active lot.

If I close out of the map, my Sim ends up in a rabbit hole with an exclamation mark over their icon. I can’t click on them or control them at all. The only way to get them back home is by calling and inviting them over. Even letting the workday finish doesn’t bring them back to the household.

Is this a known bug or is there a fix? It’s making active careers and school basically unplayable.

Thanks in advance!

    Could you please provide the following information

    • Are you using mods/cc in your game ? Please remove them and test without them if you do.
    • Do you have this issue both on a mac and PC ?
    • Do you get any error code when booted back to the map ?

    • Do you have any LastException files in Documents\Electronic Arts\The Sims 4 ?

      - Delete the ones you have
      - Trigger the error again
      - Check if new ones are created
      - If that is the case, please copy/paste the content here. You can open the file with any text editor.


      Deleting the file won't fix your issue. Posting the info is meant for troubleshooting. 

    • Does the issue affect both lots ? Like if you send the teen alone, do you have the issue with the scientist and if you send the scientist alone, does the teen have the issue ?
