[LD] Reaper Career: Ghosts and Souls showing as Living Sims

While at the active Reaper career my sim Scryed for Travel and had to close fissures and collect souls. The fissures went okay (sometimes fissures are in rooms that are locked, could fix that but thats a side note- I just shift-clicked to teleport in and out of the room) but I couldnt find the souls.

I noticed a group of sims standing outside of the lot probably at a spawn point, just lumped together and they had been there the whole time. So I click on one and theres the interaction 'colllect soul'. So my sim walks over there and does the animation to collect the soul, and the sim does the ghost animation like oh no ya got me, and then turns into an urn. It did check off the box for collecting a soul. 

Now today I went to another active day and The Office has a pesky ghost i need to expel. The ghost is a regular alive looking sim. 

Pictures attached.

Playing in my vanilla save since the patch. Script mods and CC are disabled. Pics attached. Thanks!

  • I am also experiencing this bug constantly. I have done all the troubleshooting steps, I don't use mods at all, and have long removed the few CC I had. It persists. I am able to collect their souls, but when I have another job later, the group of "dead sims" all hang around several spaces away from the building.

    I upvoted the original post.

    For the reaper career there is an assignment to close fissures and reap souls but every time I have this assignment there are no souls on the lot only fissures. This has happened 3 different times. 

    Repairing the game doesn’t help.

    No cc. No mods. I do have all packs. Game, graphics card and computer are all updated. I play on a 2023 ASUS Tuf Gaming F15 laptop with nothing on it but the Sims.

    I tried this recently and thought the same thing but there were npc sims standing around that weren't ghosts and I clicked on them and was able to reap them. Still bugged but I was able to complete the job.

    Ghost Sims will no longer appear as a regular, living Sims while in the Reaper Career attempting to collect souls.

    Fixed in Patch 1.120.117/ 2.25
