I created a mall in the sims 4, just a mini one with a restaurant. And none of the cashiers, or employees showed up and no patrons. I made it at retail lot and then changed it to just a general commu...

I'm coming back here to report that even though it was not mentioned in the patch, in my game too suddenly the retails can sell items again!! 🎉🎉🎉 I'm soooo happy!!! Thank you so much for fixing it in the background, I think this would have been worth officially calling out, as many players were waiting for this 🙏
Clarifying:
It this is the new bug for UNOWNED retails (which started with the first businesses and hobbies patch) that is fixed now. 🎉
My OWNED retails still don't spawn workers and don't let me buy anything there, which is the bug we had for a while already, that one is not fixed.
I can confirm I play tested a lot last night with all the things we discussed to see how I could help you all figure this out especially after seeing folks posting that it had corrected it self.
All my retails are working properly as they should.. including..
- You can purchase things as a visiting sim
- Employees show up
- It doesn't matter if they are owned or 'NPC owned' ... they all work
To keep things separate I'll post details in the other thread but the "business panel glitch" seems to be gone when adding a new retail. I play tested it over and over to see if I could recreate it. My one household didn't loose it's data on owning the business but their other business still shows as unowned in the panel, but in map view still shows as it's their business.
additionally my Sims who owned Residential Rentals and it didn't show in panel before, do show up. Just not previous retails. Restaurants still acting weird if they are owned. I'll give further updates in the other thread... since this actual issue with retail clinics seems resolved....
Oh interesting, my OWNED retails do not work yet, they are owned by my Sim (not the active Sim in the moment of visiting) and they don't spawn workers and don't let me buy the items. I tried it without mods too, and can't buy anything in there that is for sale (except the mannequins).
Update:
I re-tested without mods again, and in my game the OWNED retails and vets still don't spawn workers, and the retails don't make that open-for-retail sound. Even when I check-in my dog in the vet, noone appears. Tapping on items for sale in retails shows the selling sign but doesn't allow a buy action.
