My lunar phase when I checked my calendar is not going through lunar phases. I checked my environmental settings and everything seems to be properly set. No mods or cc ever.
I'm not sure if it's related, but my sims have stopped going to work and school, bills have not come. It's like an internal clock is off.
Mar 7 2026 Moon phase stuck at Waxing Gibbous (I checked settings are set at default) No full moon events happening.
PC / no mods ever / limited CC for hair, clothing, makeup. I played vanilla for years until Dec 2025.
The following could be related and started after the Feb 2026 update.
No mailman, no mail delivers, no maid, no pizza delivery (I added to other bug reports re: mail and maid )
My sim can still use the mailbox to license music or send books to publisher.
No bills in mail.
Sims with jobs don't go to work and are stuck at "starts in __ days". Boss doesn't call. If a sim starts a new job, the clock works and the sim goes to work.
I can't change the moon phase. It's stuck with new moon. No mods, no cc. pc
That's correct in all accounts. School works if they age up while playing with household. Thank you for taking that time looking into it.
Probably some save corruption then. I haven't found a way to make it work. I got the phases to be fine in the calendar by turning them off, playing a day and then turning them back on but the phase then just got stuck again.
Work seems only to be working if you quit and rejoin but for school that's a bit hard to do.
For the bills I didn't try to cheat force them, might make them work for a while too but it seems there's something bigger going on in your save.
I started a new save lunar phase works. I haven't checked the careers and schools yet though.
Checked your save and there's def something off. I do think they are all related.
Did you get a chance to check if if it's just that save ?
I've forwarded your save to EA.
Would you be willing to share your save with me ?
If so, please zip your saves folder and upload it somewhere like dropbox, googledrive or OneDrive and PM me the link.
I'm in a forever save so I haven't tried a new one, but I could try a new one. If it works on a new save, I'd be bummed.
Game clock works, aging works, festivals sometimes work, but never again the San Myshuno festivals. Existing sims with jobs/schools don't work. If a sim ages up then I get a job it will work.
Thank you for responding
