Yo so is this what should be happening??

Hey, thank you so much for responding so quickly. Yeah i have a lot of mods, and i did recently install the UI cheats mod after life and death released. I do have a quick question, though. I use a mod manager (dont remember the specific name, i'll need to look at it tomorrow), so if you could maybe help me create a throwaway user folder, that would be awesome! Again, thanks for replying. I usually dont get answer or help that fast anywhere else 😂. Will definitely start cleaning out my sims mods as soon as possible, though!

Great!  Glad you found the problem and got it fixed.  

As to creating a new user folder ("The Sims 4" folder), it's pretty easy.  All you have to do is rename your current one to something else or move it out of the Electronic Arts folder to elsewhere on your computer, then start the game.  A new one will be automatically created during the process of game startup.  After going through the process of making and placing the mandatory sim, you just save and quit, and it's done.  Then you have something to work in for testing and other things.  For instance, since I play the game with mods, I have several user folders that I switch in and out for various things, like a no mods folder for testing new lots and downloaded sims and for replicating problems and troubleshooting lots for posts reported here for other users.  I also have a separate folder where I do all my major lot building in a vanilla save and then my main play folder where I use mods.  

And as an FYI since you're a mod user, every time there is a game update, @luthienrising publishes a broken mod list which you can find here at AHQ.  The current one is Broken and Updated Sims 4 Mods and CC: 1.111, Dec. 3, 2024 Game Update - Answer HQ.  It's a good resource when you're troubleshooting your game when you run into a problem, particularly after a game update or a new pack is released.

Have fun with your game!
