The Science Career is all messed up - thanks a lot Get Famous.

Is there anything consistent about the particular sim you're using (traits, clothing) or is it all random?

Also, does the workday event otherwise function as expected (objectives to complete, workday ends at a particular time, etc.)? Or is it all broken?

I tried 2 different sims - brand new - the only traits they have in common is genius and knowledge.

No many of the work day tasks cannot be completed - as they either can't be done seeing they require co-workers or visiting aliens or to do with plants that after the first production seems not to produce more plants. Like one task is to water them - but they never need water after the first time. Another task that fails is cloning the plant and even though the machine does clone the plant the task does not get accepted as being done. There is a task to change the grass and when you click on the grass as you would do before this problem the game no longer sees it as grass and won't click it. There are tons of tasks that cannot or will not fullfill.

Oddly people who bought GF - even if they uninstall it to test their game - does not encounter this issue from what I am seeing.

Also I do not use mods, CC, or even game cheats in my game and I run a high end gaming desktop (8 core, 16 gigs gaming ram - 2 years old and built for me).

This is my favorite career - I play it a lot and it has worked fine for almost 4 years - suddenly it no longer works after GF.

That sucks. :(

Any chance you're getting a lastexception error showing up in your sims 4 folder? (I think it'd typically be documents > electronic arts > the sims 4

You could also try dropping the sims log enabler tool in your mods folder and then try another workday with the no-show coworkers (making sure to start before work, so that the logs catch the part where you go to work and the workers are supposed to be generated). Then minimize the game, zip up the folder with the logs, and share it. I can maybe take a look and see if there's anything noteworthy showing up in the logs that could provide insight as to what's broken. My thought would be that maybe something amiss will show up in the zone or situation logs.

That's all I can think of atm. That and just looking at the specifics as much as possible for process of elimination and seeing if there's a specific way to repeat the bug.

As I think a few simmers have now noted, it sounds like this is an issue that's best reported to Answers HQ (and also maybe also being talked about already over there!). Considering this, I am locking the thread and advise bringing the issue up there as AHQ is better suited for this kind of conversation. :smile:
