@Xemisa2World That sounds really annoying! It seems like the Reaper event caused a number of problems for people. Do you happen to remember which NPC it was that interacted with the computer? I don't know if it would make a difference but I'm curious, especially if it was perhaps a sim with a special role.
Here are a few things to try if you haven't already.
- Check for a game update. There was a small patch on 31 October, so now the current version is 2.02. For some reason, my PS4 did not auto update for this one and I had to manually check for the update.
- Travel with your household (I think it's best to send the entire household) to another lot in a different world. Have them wander around and/or do some things there. Then have the household travel back home and check to see if one of the sims can order seeds.
- Click on the computer and lock it for one of your sims and have that sim try to order. Then unlock it and try ordering again with any sim.
- Sell that computer and buy a new one.
- Power cycle your system
- Shut down the system through the menus.
- Wait for the light to stop flashing
- Unplug the system from the power source
- Reconnect the power
- Power up the system
- Launch the game for testing
Please come back and update if anything worked or not.
- Xemisa2World2 years agoRising Adventurer@JonaO703 Good news. I discovered a possible workaround, but I have not confirmed whether it works consistently. This is what happened: I went back to Build/Buy Mode once more, deleted the computer and saved house to Library. Then, I bought an upgraded computer, purchased it then deleted it, then bought again in a different color. Next, I went to CAS Mode, stayed there for about 5 minutes, adjusting my Sims, and when I returned, at least one Sim in the household was able to order Seeds. That Sim was already sitting at the computer when Live Mode resumed, so I directed the Sim to buy seeds from the PC. So, *maybe* CAS Mode through a mirror is a workaround that resets the glitch. That was not the case in September with a similar issue that I reported (which was actually a bit worse because I couldn't order books, medicine, or pizza, etc.). I had to delete that save completely, there was no workaround. Hopefully I can save the game now and finish the Rewards Event. Thank you so much for your prompt response!
