  • Hey, Crincrit, I think I've worked it out.  I saved my current family to my library and started a new game with them. The same issue kept happening. I got frustrated and started an entire new game with new sims and the issue went away. Then I remembered that I had issues in the detective career with another sim from the same world as my doctor. It's a downloaded world. So I tested my glitchy doctor sim in the EA world and the issue went away. I tested my detective as well, and the same; no issues. The new update has bugged out the world I downloaded. I deleted it, and so far all glitches have disappeared. 
    Thank you for the fast replies and suggestions.

    @Lillypilly Could you try exporting the problem Sim to the library and new save and check if it also happens ?

    @Lillypilly So happy you got this worked out.
    You said "It's a downloaded world" which makes me think the person setting up that save may have made alterations that unintentionally causes issues.

    @EuphorialQueen, I'm not sure. It worked well with the doctor career until Island Living. The detective career was really glitchy, so idk... You'd hope the person who made it wouldn't do something deliberately.

    @Lillypilly Custom worlds can be fun but as you discovered do not always play well with original content. I am certain it was not intentional. You might want to try contacting the creator to let them know what happened in your game.

    @EuphorialQueen, I completely read your reply wrong. I saw intentionally, instead of unintentionally, oy... My brain is still foggy. I was up all night trying to fix my buggy game. I think I'll just keep the original game worlds and edit them individually. Less stress all around.
