Re: Butler doesn't do anything but read
@107531kop Yes... normally toddlers are fine (I just did a home with 3 toddlers about a month ago). I just finished one a couple of days before they fixed the needs decay bug, and that toddler was in a huge household, and it was insane trying to monitor it properly. (I assume you're aware that there was a bug with toddler needs decaying at double speed that began with the Nov. 12 patch and was fixed in the Nov. 25 patch: https://www.ea.com/games/the-sims/the-sims-4/update-notes).
Back to butler stuff... I was playing the household with the new butler that I mentioned last night and there was what seemed like a long time where he and the maid were just standing together in the kitchen, then the maid finally went home. If I notice any new patterns rather than improvements on this butler I can let you know. 🙂 Have fun with your tots!
