Sim won't leave lot

After installing the update on 7/23/24, I have found that my Sims won't leave the lot automatically eg. going to work, volunteering, adopting etc. 

I previously had the updated MC Command Center mod installed, but disabled it to see if it solved the issue, as well as 'repairing' the game in the EA app.

I have also restarted the app multiple times, tried different lots and different saves but still no luck.

The Sim will appear to leave, and grey out as if they would have left. Their face icon at the bottom will even change to add the work icon etc. 

The only way I was able to get the Sim to leave was via the 'Travel' function in the phone. 

The Sim however did leave automatically when there was one of those phone pop ups of someone inviting them to go to the circus.

    @MamosGreen98  Please test with no mods or custom content, as in, move the Mods folder to the desktop.

    If that doesn't or didn't help, please try a new save, with a sim living in one of the default EA-made lots.

    @MamosGreen98  Please test in a clean user folder.  Move the entire Sims 4 folder out of Documents > Electronic Arts and onto your desktop, and when you launch the game, a clean folder will spawn with no content.  (Your saves and other content will be intact in the folder you moved but temporarily not read by the game.)  Don't add anything to the new folder yet; just start a new save and test again.

    If that doesn't help, go ahead and make a bug report, saying you tested with new sims in a clean folder with no mods or cc.  I can merge these posts with that thread if you like, or lock this one.
