Also, every time you make a change to your mods folder, if you add or remove any mods or CC, even if it's just one piece, make sure you delete the localthumbcache file in your Sims 4 folder. This file can cause glitches and lingering issues if not updated every time you alter your mods folder. The game will generate a brand new localthumbcache file when you next start up your game.

I load the game vanilla to do a test run. Then I check the creators for mod updates and add back in what I can to the game, delete the cache files again, and try it out with my mods and CC. It's a lot of maintenance but I think it's worth it to prevent issues.

Can mods like hair and clothes etc cause the problem, or is it something like MC command center? :) Thanks for your reply!
@nennaotus Sometimes CC can break, and in my personal experience, I've had it cause some glitches, so broken content does need to be removed. Usually if you try removing the clothing and hair and then try your game and the game works, you'll know it's something in your CC. If you have a lot of custom content, you'll have to find out which piece is causing it. The best method is to test it in batches. You can try splitting your content into two batches and putting the first half of your CC in the game, then trying it out to see if the problem is still there. If it is, you'll know it's something in that batch. If it isn't, try the second batch. When you know which batch has the problem, split it in half again and do the same thing. Keep doing this until you can narrow it down to the piece that's causing the problem. And remember to delete the localthumbcache file every time you change your mods folder.
Good luck!
