[BDK] Can't Show Off Clean House to Guests

My Sim is in the second level of the Perfectly Pristine aspiration, one of the tasks of which is Show Off Clean House to Guests. Maybe it's because my sim is living in an apartment in San Myshuno, but whether I invite other sims over or have a party in the apartment, there is no interaction on the guests, on the floor, or on my sim to show off the clean... well, apartment, to the guests.

    Issue Description:
    When a Sim living in a Tiny Home (Tiny Living lot type) has the Sparkling Clean Surroundings moodlet active and a guest is present, the "Show Off Clean House" milestone for the Bust the Dust Perfectly Pristine aspiration does not complete. The interaction should trigger automatically when the guest arrives while the moodlet is active, but it fails to do so on Tiny Home lots. The issue does not occur on standard residential lots.

    Expected Behavior:
    According to the Bust the Dust mechanics, once a Sim has the Sparkling Clean Surroundings moodlet, inviting a guest over should automatically satisfy the "Show Off Your Clean House to a Guest" milestone. The requirement is met the moment the guest arrives at the door while the moodlet is active. This should work regardless of lot type, including Tiny Homes.

    Steps to Reproduce:

    1. Clean the entire Tiny Home until the Sim receives the +1 Fine Sparkling Clean Surroundings moodlet.
    2. While the moodlet is active, invite a guest over (via phone > Social > Invite to Current Lot).
    3. Observe the guest's arrival and check if the aspiration milestone completes.

    Actual Result:

    • The guest arrives at the Tiny Home lot.
    • The Sparkling Clean Surroundings moodlet remains active.
    • The "Show Off Your Clean House to a Guest" milestone does not complete.
    • The interaction does not trigger automatically as it should.

    Additional Notes:

    • The "Show Off Clean House" is designed to trigger automatically when a guest arrives while the Sparkling Clean Surroundings moodlet is active.
    • This issue appears specific to the Tiny Home lot type. The same process works correctly on standard residential lots.
    • Other factors can prevent the milestone from completing in general gameplay, including:
      • Dirty appliances or counters
      • Spoiled food in the fridge or on counters
      • Dirty laundry in hampers
      • Dirty hamster cages or full trash cans
      • The crockpot having a known bug that prevents the milestone
    • However, this bug occurs even when the Tiny Home is fully clean and all other conditions are met, suggesting a specific Tiny Home lot type compatibility issue.

    Impact:
    Moderate. Players using Tiny Homes cannot complete the Perfectly Pristine aspiration through normal gameplay. The Tiny Home lot type is popular for its skill-gain benefits, and this bug forces players to temporarily move to a standard residential lot just to complete this aspiration milestone. This undermines cross-pack compatibility between Bust the Dust and Tiny Living.
