Build-mode button shortcuts are bugged, and drifting cursor.
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? 1.67.26.2310
What expansions, game packs, and stuff packs do you have installed? Seasons, Island Living, Cats and Dogs, City Living, Cottage Living, Werewolves, Vampires, Spa Day, Outdoor Retreat,
Steps: How can we find the bug ourselves? Open last manually saved game. Select Residential World. Select lot and choose Build.
What happens when the bug occurs? Mouse Pointer keeps drifting horizontally to the left. Left Joystick has to be held gently to the opposite direction in order to keep the Cursor still. Backing from any selected building option like: building walls, placing objects, don't work.. Basically all the button shortcuts in Building mode are bugged if you try to back from placing an item. However, when looking through items in the Buy menu and choosing a colour swatch, backing from this works just fine.
What do you expect to see? Cursor should stay still when not using it after the first time interacting with it, after loading into the game. Button shortcuts should work as intended, without having to use Close/exit from all Menus.
Have you installed any customization with the game, e.g. Custom Content or Mods? On console - never used.

Notice!
My controller is fairly new, bought in July and I have played the game using it since without any problems. I kept a break from playing Sims 4 after August 23. My old controller had a Vertical drift problem but it wasn't anything like this one I have now, and even then the cursor stopped moving on it's own after 1-2 seconds. No other games have a problem with the Joystick drift or the B button.
I know this sounds very peculiar for a bug or a glitch, but it's hindering any kind of building immensely. I've never had this before.
