Re: Macbook pro 2019 will not charge while playing the sims 4 and ONLY the sims 4

@dreamiejun

Yep, my 2017 15" MBP does the same. I believe it is a problem with the power management of the machine though as I often have to reset the SMC to get it to charge at all after having had the game running. I have discovered that if you already have the Mac plugged in and charging and then load the game it is normally fine, whereas plugging it in while the game is already loaded does nothing.

    Should add, this never happens to my Apple Silicon Mac, only the Intel machine.
