Re: Stuck in "Split From Household"

For anyone with this problem stil before you click anything else click your sim one time and it should turn green then click ok checkmark and it should send you to the dorm.

I clicked on my sim one time, but all check marks are greyed out. Can't do anything! All I can do is transfer money back and forth, but that does nothing at all.

Eta: and just like the others, I lost my sim. The household and funds are still there in the world, but my sim is gone, which sucks.

    TL;DR If you apply for University through the mailbox, make sure you also enroll in University through the mailbox (and vice versa)

    SO after reloading my save literally 30 times trying every possible combination, I discovered what I posted above. If you, like in my case, apply for university through the mailbox then enroll through a computer, you will encounter this game breaking bug.

    I have no solution for those who lost their saves other than save often in different slots and when the game acts funny, always exit without saving to avoid corruption.

    EA/Maxis really need to get on this one.

    Should add that I have no Mods/CC and this was a single sim household.

    @SimmonsTheMad33 Thank you! I encountered this bug one time and went to my last save but instead of enrolling through my laptop i enrolled through the mail. Even though I applied through my laptop this works!

    i have it to ( the symptoms is the same as everyone else)

    1) Single Sims

    2) mail enroll ---> laptop enroll

    , etc

    -------------------stuck on moving household ( the game is still responsive )

    but i solve it by myself my workaround is by using FORCE ENROLL using

    "testingCheats true" ---> University Debug ---? ENROLL

    its smooth sailing form there

    ---------------by guess it maybe, maybe because my sims had to many testing Cheats ( maybe not to sure about this )
