Go to class problem

I’ve had the exact same problem, I so far have not figured out a way to fix it, by the time my sim gets to class she’s missed more than half of it, and then when says she’s suppose to be I’m until 12:55 she doesn’t come out until after the queue bubble has been filled otherwise it counts as skipping class.

I had a similar problem where on my way to class, some random sim tried to engage mine in conversation and I cancelled it but I still had to wait for him to walk all the way over to my sim (which took FOREVER) before it truly cancelled. So my sim got to class like 10 minutes before it ended. Not a great start. However, he was able to turn it around and get an A+. I pay attention and start sending them to class like 2 hours before it starts now (the walk he had in Foxbury seemed longer than the walk in Britechester, though.)

I think his bike slowed him down, as well. So I click “walk here” now.

Oh, one more thing. The “Go to Class” drops out of queue for no reason sometimes. Then you don’t get the button on the class schedule until it is starting. So know your buildings!

I’m also having extreme frustration at how long it takes to get around and even with the biking, since they can’t bike up all the stairs and levels, it doesn’t even help. I have my sim on the soccer team and I feel like I have to make my sim start going to each place hours early in order to make it on time.

If your sim gets stuck in a conversation interaction and they're going to be late for class, I would suggest resetting them so they have a decent chance to make it. :)

This was a typical problem in Sims 3. What you needed to do was to get to the class building early and try to be first in line. We need a mod to fix this.

I was having the same problem until I removed my mods Wicked Whims and Extreme Violence. I am already noticing Sims aren't getting stuck in their interactions and missing class. HOWEVER, my sims are not using their bikes as default like I want them too! Anyone else having that issue. I wish you could pick "bike everywhere".

Finding its much easier to live off campus and not in dorms to get my sims to class, I have one sim in a dorm in Foxbury and he is missing classes because its taking so long to get from the dorm to the class building, where as the Pleasant twins who live in a house in Britechester come and go to class with ease (its like going to work). From the dorms the go to class prompt drops a lot, for me its showing up well after class starts, sims stopping you on the way seems to be a feature, they don't just go, its like an obstacle course! Its fine if they are waiting right outside the building before class starts, but thats not always practical in terms of game play. If this is how its going to be, I'm just going to stay away from dorm living.

My problem is that the "go to class" button only shows up 25% of the time and well after the class start time. I wish we could click on the buildings or on our sims to go to class. Mine has missed both of her finals now because she doesnt have the option to go to class! I hope they fix this bug in a patch!

Update: one of my exams (not sure which one) apparently starts in an hour (3am). -_-

Last update sorry: the 3am saturday exam I previously mentioned was for my 8am Friday class, so I think the timing is way off which is why the "go to class" button isn't showing up during class time. I also noticed when I try to get food from the cafeteria it will tell me I have to wait until 5pm, but then it doesn't unlock until about 2 or more hours later. I don't know if this is due to my very old "sims computer" trying to keep up or is everyone else experiencing this extreme of a time lag??
