[LD] Will: Child dependent not transferring households
Household A has a child living with her grandfather.
The grandfather designated Household B to care for his grand-daughter after his death. He also willed simoleons and heirlooms to Household B in order to give to his grandchild.
First, I tried killing grandpa while controlling Household A. I got the "Game Over" pop-up menu stating that Sim's Child Protective Services would take care of her and find her a new home. It was my understanding that this shouldn't happen with the will set up and caretaker set up for the dependant children.
I backed out without saving.
I then had grandpa killed while I was controlling Household B. I got a notification that my sim was inheriting because of the will and to keep an eye on the mail in the coming days. The child wasn't transferred to Household B. It was my understanding this would happen immediately.
What gives? In what scenario will this girl move households? Or is this game mechanic not working properly?
I have the latest EP (royalty) and never played w CC or mods.
