[IL] Becoming a temporary ghost breaks the needs UI for mermaids

I know this is a minor UI bug that doesn’t affect gameplay, so it might not be a top priority to fix. Still, every report counts, right?

This bug first happened in my main save file with Mods/CC installed, so I thought it was caused by the Expanded Mermaids mod. It occurred after my mermaid Sim did the Ghastly Ritual to fulfill their unfinished business.

To test further, I created a new save file with no Mods/CC, a completely vanilla game. I started with the premade mermaid Sim, Nalani Mahi’ai, and took her to Ravenwood to experience an out-of-body event at Baleful Bog. I didn’t have time to level up her Medium skill for the Ghastly Ritual. See "Video 1".

Turns out, the Out-of-Body Experience takes a long time, 7 Sim hours! What should I do to pass the time while waiting for it to end? See "Screenshot (605)".

I got a bit bored, so I caused some chaos: I took her to a crowded place and had her haunt everyone to rank up her ghost tier. This drained her ghostly energy, so I had her do a spectral slumber. See "Screenshot (606)".

Finally, as shown in "Screenshot (607)", her UI Hydration need text stays as "Apparition Hydration," unlike her other needs, which revert normally.

Platform: PC

Game Version: 1.116.240.1020 DX11

Mods/CC: None, this is a new save in a vanilla game.

I’m hoping The Sims team can address this, not in a rush, but ASAP would be great since you’ve been tackling small bugs lately.

Thank you!
