Re: Sims (teens/younger) randomly being moved out of their households

Replying to my own thread after a round of second tests

It seems if I move sims in unrelated households, not the ones that were randomly split apart/moved, it does not cause the game load error afterwards so it does seem to be related specifically to that bug/issue.

secondly, the sims that were moved out have no option to be asked to join household or ask to join household from their original household. I tested this with mortimer and cassandra and neither could "ask to join household" with the other sim. the option simply didn't exist even with high/max friendship. not sure if this is because cassandra is a teen ? (never tried asking to join household with a teen or child sim before) or if it is part of the bug.

thirdly, the split from household and move menu seems to be so broken, both in terms of almost all households being missing from the list to join and the menu itself freezing after trying to move (tested this with cassandra, unclear if this is an issue for All sims or just the ones impacted by this bug)

    @ALittleBitAlexa Please remove MCCC and test if they also move out without it. As you said, the splitting & merging is bugged and already has a thread but the main issue of this (random Sims moving out of household) is not a functionality the game offers even with NS. NS only move in/out entire households.

    All bugs reported must be tested on a vanilla game which means empty mods folder except for resource.cfg file.

    @crinrict I'm not really sure how to test it efficiently after taking out mccc because it happens so randomly and in both cases it happened after a long time in the save. Unless I play through an entirely new save for like weeks just to see if it happens there doesn't seem to be a consistent way to check if it would happen again/without mccc... open to any suggestions though (although that might be my only option). I suppose I can take this to the mccc discord as well to see if it's happening to anyone else
    thanks
