DO NOT put Lisa on her trick or treat task!

Wait to see if you have the glitch, then contact customer support if you do.
I've sent Lisa on her trick or treat task twice now, and she hasn't disappeared yet. It's not guaranteed to happen... But it may happen.

I'll take the chance :D

Happened to me this morning with Nelson after 16 hours he disappeared. Also I found Lou on land beyond what I own and what can be purchased. He was on a job but only way to get him back was to store the SWAT van.

There are characters I think have disappeared but when their task is done the hand shows up usually in between buildings. Since the update I've noticed my Springfieldians have some different walking patterns.

I have noticed that also
I have noticed that they will take shortcuts overland that I don't own but it was just along the edge. This was to get from 1 road to another with a building in between

The kids are roaming everywhere. :roll: I use the button to block out the buildings and decorations. Then I got to keep looking around. Eventually I find them. No way I'm not having them trick or treat. I want the goo! Also, I got Marge and Burns earning candy too. I swear if I don't task Burns right away, I have a heck of time trying to locate him to task him. But the button has actually made that much easier. Bart's been the hardest to find. Usually I don't find him until he gets the thumbs up.

This has happened to me with Lisa, no way to get her back:(

How long has she been missing? Was she tasked when you lost her?

She was on the trick or treat task, if I click on the next job for her in the task book the game zooms to where she should be, but you only see her for a split second with the thumb above her head, then she vanishes.

It looks as though she is trapped in the new land which has been released on the right of the map, she is unclickable even though she appears for a second. It's been a couple of days since She has been trapped.

Are you able to buy that piece of land? (Not sure how much land/money you have.) Otherwise, I would definitely open a ticket with ea or at least email them about it. Maybe they will push an update through. But I'd buy the land first if I could. Makes me wonder if the people who are experiencing this do not have all the land. Maybe when they opened up the extra strip of land, it got glitched. (I bought that extra strip so maybe that's why I don't have an issue is my thinking.)

Hmm, I had all the land before Lisa got stuck. I contacted EA on Thursday to report the problem, so here's hoping for a fix!

In the meantime i'd advise against sending characters on the trick or treat tasks as others are experiencing the same issue with Bart & Nelson.
