Creepy Bug with generic lot

This was the creepiest thing i've encountered in any game ever that was unintentional.
Today, my party animal sim planned a party. I chose a generic lot with no name as the location... Dumb choice.

After that, it went to manage worlds/travel and promted me to choose a world. I chose oasis springs, where my sims live.

I played as my sim... It went back to manage worlds.

I played as the other sim that stayed at home and the game crashed.

This is scary!

    Yeah that's a bug with generic lots. I'd say avoid them at all costs.

    Haven't heard of this bug. So are you saying sending your sim to generic lots will crash the game? If this is the case does SimGuruNIck know about it? This needs to be fixed if that's the case cause I send my sims to generic lots.

    Yep, I had the same thing happen. When I planned a wedding, I saw the same white house with no name. Also chose that which lead me back to the Manage Worlds. After picking a household, the game crashed.

    There is a similar discussion. I'll search for it for you. It'll take some time.

    No, just the one without a name.

    Yeah, this was the one I was referring to. Apparently it's a weird glitch cuz the house isn't actually in the game.

    But last time, making any lots generic can also make it hard for you to change the lot type after that. I don't know if they've already fixed that but because of that bug, I stopped using generic lots altogether.
