Same issue.
- Lease resets to 7 days upon opening game.
- Played an in-game week and on Thursday lease FINALLY said "6 days" remaining. Had to exit and upon reload back to 7 days.
Related - this Sim family was originally a tenant at a pre-made property, and was never given the option to pay rent. I would get the notification that rent was due, then overdue, and then landlord would visit to "repo" but would never actually take anything or complete the repo.
- Product: The Sims 4 - For Rent
Platform: Windows 11 Pro
Which language are you playing the game in? English
How often does the bug occur? Every tenant event in "For Rent"
What is your current game version number? 1.114.46.1030 DX 11
What expansions, game packs, and stuff packs do you have installed? For Rent, Lovestruck, High School Years, Get To Work, Eco Lifestyle, Dream Home Decorator, Cottage Living, City Living, Cats & Dogs, Dine Out, Grunge Revival Kit, Vintage Glamour, Tiny Living, Spooky Stuff, Incheon Arrivals, Romantic Garden, Realm of Magic, Parenthood, Paranormal Stuff, Outdoor Retreat, My First Pet, Modern Menswear, Laundry Day, Kitchen Clutter, Kids Room, Home Chef Hustle, Holiday Celebration, Greenhouse Haven, First Fits, Fashion Street, Desert Luxe, Decor to the Max, Cool Kitchen, Industrial Loft, Book Nook, Blooming Rooms, Crystal Creations, Life of the Party, Up All Night
Steps: How can we find the bug ourselves? Play as landlord sims (Song Family) and check rental properties
What happens when the bug occurs? Lease period never decreases, tenant's never have to pay rent, never enter grace period.
What do you expect to see? Each in game day the lease period remaining goes down by 1, then tenants pay rent, enter grace period where I can evict if I want to, and then lease is renewed.
Have you installed any customization with the game, e.g. Custom Content or Mods? No
Did this issue appear after a specific patch or change you made to your system? No
Other Notes in case they are relevant:
- Sims 4 originally "purchased" through Steam (Steam icon in EA launcher)
- Some packs purchased through Steam some through EA launcher
- Account has been logged into several computers over the years so saves on multiple computers
