[DU] University Terms End Too Early

Product: The Sims 4
Platform:Microsoft XBOX One
Which language are you playing the game in? English
How often does the bug occur? Every time (100%)
What is your current game version number? SDX: 12.0 SDX Packages: 12.0.1 12.0.2 12.0.3
What expansions, game packs, and stuff packs do you have installed? Get to work Dine out Disc uni Spa day City liv Jungl adv Cool kit Vint glam Pets
Steps: How can we find the bug ourselves? Play a term of classes to the end. Have four classes. More than likely you will have to submit a term paper, do a presentation, and take a final exam by the end of the term. Also, pay attention to the term days when they start.
What happens when the bug occurs? My sim had 4 classes. The first bug occurred after attending classes for a couple of days and then looking at the panel, which said that I still had 5 days left to the term. I thought term days were 5 sim days but I could be mistaken on that part. Count down to the last 2 days. We are on the first day if “2 days left”. I have an excellent presentation board in my inventory that I completed before the second to last class and a final term paper in my inventory that i am sure needs editing that I also completed for a different class, prior to the second to last class. I intentionally completed these for n earlier class just because this is my first time playing DU and I didn’t know if they needed to be completed in an earlier class since it states “before the end of the term.” However, in the classes before I could get to the last class, these weren’t marked as a “completed” task so my assumption is that they are to be turned in on the final day. Well, my term timed out a day before the final day of those classes (T/Th) so I wasn’t able to turn in anything and as a result my grade dropped. My term ended on a Monday so those two classes were fine and I was able to take the final exams. Does anyone else have any input on this? I did search and found a similar thread but it was under technical issues and not bug report so I decided to create a new one.
What do you expect to see? I expect to be able to submit all of my assignments before the term ends.
Have you installed any customization with the game, e.g. Custom Content or Mods? On console - never used.
Did this issue appear after a specific patch or change you made to your system? Neutral/Not Sure

  • @crinrict Hey there! I figured out that I just didn’t quite know what I was doing since that was my first time completing a term. 

    Classes are 5 business days out if 7 term days total. (My first error). 

    Presentation and Submission of papers have to be done outside of class but before the last day if class. (My second error). 

    So in summary, there is no bug and all is well!

  • Im playing on console and I just got my term results back before being able to go to class to submit a term paper for one, and for another before being able to make a presentation. I was only able to take two final exams for the classes that fell on the day the term ended. 

    Also, I thought terms were 5 sim days long? On my fourth day into a term it stated in the panel that I still had 5 more days to go. So the term day and the actual day count don’t seem to be aligned as well. I was definitely supposed to get higher grades!!!

    @MzMelonz Moving this over to game issues then. Glad you found out how it's working.

    I had a total lost in translation moment yesterday and was going to revisit this today :D
