sims can't get in their side of the bed

hello! happy new year:)

i've had this issue since the last patch update on december 3rd (it randomly happened like 2-5 days after i can't remember) where my sims can't get in their side of the double bed... :') i've updated all my mods and removed every mod that may had conflicts with the bed, like all the mods that added interactions with the bed. i've also tried the 50/50 method. i then thought the issue was me using cc bed so i switched to ea beds and used the business and hobbies double bed, still had the same issue... i've honestly tried everything and i don't really understand what causes this bug to happen! 

so the thing is, my sims are married and they have no issue sleeping together. the bed is placed in the middle of the room and i tried removing the stuff from the right side to see if anything was blocking the way, none of this was the problem. i've also tried putting the bed in an empty room, in the middle and still had the same issue :') so yeah, i've been putting my sims to sleep this way since then : the one sleeping on the ride side has to go to bed first so they have to climb in and move their way to the right side so the one whos sleeping on the left side can go to bed after ! 😭

iff anyone can help me find a solution i would be really happy and relieved !! thank you so much in advance x

    hae6an​  Have you tried the following: Move your Mods folder from your 'The Sims 4' folder [Documents > Electronic Arts > The Sims 4] to your desktop (save it for reference) and delete the localthumbcache.package file in your “The Sims 4” folder. Then check in a new game save to see if this issue is still occurring. You can test without saving.

    hae6an​  When you send them to bed, do they always try to use the same side of the bed regardless of which sim or their assignment?  

    One thing you can try is resetting who has which side of the bed?  I've noticed in my game that sometimes, my sims seem to forget which side is theirs after a game update or new pack install and I have to reassign who has which side of a double bed and who has been assigned to which single bed.

    From your description, you might have an invisible object attached to one side of the bed that is giving you a route block.  One thing you can do to test for that is to move the household out of the lot and keep the furniture.  Then move them back in and place the bed and test to see if the sims still can get into the correct side of the bed.  If it works and clears the problem, you'll end up having to refurnish/redecorate the house.  You'll have to decide if it's worth the time and trouble to do that or not.

    Hope this helps.
