Sims 4 Cottage Living Village Errands Social Tasks Error

I just bought and installed cottage living, but I can't complete any village errand that requires me to complete a social task. For instance:

. The village mayor wants me to talk about dreams with the grocery deliverer, but when I do that the task is never recognized as being done. 

. Same for when the grocery deliverer wants me to talk to him about the mayor. 

I've created a new game 3 times, restarted my game, traveled in between worlds and nothing seems to solve this problem. 

Is there any way I can at least force the game as recognizing a task as being completed (like a cheat of some sort) until you fix the bug. 

Thanks

    I was reading online about people with similar issues on freelance careers and decided to reinstall the game. If that works I'll post it here.

    I didn't know the repair option existed. If the problem persists after the reinstallation, I'll try that. 

    Thanks again

  • I can't even find the interaction. Closest I can find is Share Personal Life Goals. I practically became best friends with the grocer in one go trying to find the interaction. If it is the Life Goals one then yeah it's not counting for me either. If that's not it, is the interaction actually called Ask About Dreams?

    I play in Chinese so I didn't know what is it in English, but you need to scroll down the "Friendly" interaction tab, usually in the end, a specific interaction to talk about dream.

    I had been trying to complete this one too.  The only option I ever got was "talk about dreams" (you have to be inspired to get that option).  My mistake was that I invited the grocer over to the lot I was on, and even though his profile still said he was a grocer, the title after his name (when you mouse-over) was gone.  I went to town and waited around until another grocer showed up, in the delivery uniform.  It had the job title in red along with his name and I got the option to ask about his dreams as soon as I introduced my sim to him.  It had the same little waving-guy icon that you get for other tasks.

  • I had the same question until I realized I was talking to the Grocery shop owner and NOT the grocery delivery guy. LOL check to make sure you’re talking to the correct person first 🙂
