[GT] Clubs: Can't have multiple admission rule for same category

The Get Together Club system allowed for multiple admission rule slots to be similar categories, IE Traits: Foodie in one slot, and Traits: Evil in another slot, so that Sims would need both traits (not either-or) to be eligible for the club.

Now the game only allows one admission rule slot per category. If you try to select another admission rule slot to be the same category, it is greyed out with the text "This category is already active." This applies to all categories and not just traits. IE: you would not be able to create a club that requires Sims to have both gardening and flower arranging skills, only that they have either gardening or flower arranging.

I've experienced this in an unmodded save, a save with mods, and after repaired game files. 

Frankly, I don't know if this change was intentional. If it was, it is extremely limiting to player creativity and an unnecessary restriction.

Edit By Crinrict: Added pack tag to title, adjusted the title to make issue clearer.

    Because this thread has very little traction, I have a feeling the dev team has this issue as a low priority, if they're even aware of it at all. I didn't see it on the laundry list for the last update. It very well could be this change was intentional, though I really hope not.

  • i'm so frustrated with this change honestly, i have been using clubs to find specific kinds of sims since GT came out and it's also an integral part of my gameplay. particularly for finding friends or potential partners. i really want them to revert the change

    Has there been any update to this? I am trying to make a club with girls that are party animals and I don’t want one of girls and party animals.

    This needs some extra attention as we cannot create an all girls book club since if you choose female in the filter and then choose book lover or book worm, it will allow "either / or" and not be exclusively both.

    And you can't make stuff like geek + genius club because it will allow either geek or genius to join, not a geeky genius. I think it affects the businesses and hobbies filter too.

    Unfortunately, I don't even think this is on the dev's radar as they seem to only notice the bugs that have a lot of votes. Hopefully this will gain some traction and more people will see it and upvote it!

  • I'd like to have this feature back as well please. Creating clubs was a lot of fun, but now, none of my ideas work.

    I would also like it to work like it did before. It really limits the freedom to create special clubs.

    I'm back four months later because this is really limiting to my club creation system.

    Yes, tracking this too! Please restore this functionality so we can use the clubs from Get Together as it was released. I loved that feature and now find myself using the club system less and less.
