Batuu sims as suspects in detective career
As the title says.
When a detective travels to make an arrest, the game spawns one guilty suspect and one or more decoys. (Sometimes it doesn't spawn decoys, that is a normal glitch I've come to ignore.) The suspect will always be a newly generated sim, the decoys are almost always already existing sims.
As of today, the decoys are only ever Batuu sims anymore. They show their Batuu conversation topics and my sim cannot arrest them. In one case the decoys were Kylo Ren and Lt. Agnon. Fortunately the real suspect also shows up, so it's nothing gamebreaking, but for sure immersion breaking.
(This happened in a save where I didn't temper with my Batuu sims, just saying. I only went there once and played as intended, no mod shenanigans.)
Is it only me or is that a common problem?
EDIT:
- New saves seem to be unaffected. I created a new save, new sim, sent him to Batuu and then to work and he managed two arrests without Batuu sims showing up.
- Then loaded the affected save, but this time without mods (and localthumbcache deleted), and it still sent Batuu sims to the arrest scene.
