[PLEASE READ] Save Game Corruption

I’ve been having problems with the infinite loading screen in a few save files ever since the update before Crystal Creations. I thought I had found all the corrupted sims and lots in my favourite save, except that my teens can’t be followed to school. After the January update though, the infinite loading screens became VERY frequent. And it’s happening when returning home from another lot and when exiting CAS.
When it happens, I have to evict the sim if there is just one, and move them onto an empty lot, then evict them again and move them back into their old lot. If the household is more than one sim, I split it in half and create a new household, and move them to an empty lot and load in. Then through manage households, I swap who lives in which lot, and make sure I can load into both households. If that’s successful, I move the ones from the empty lot back into the original lot, and it loads properly. So far only 1 sim has been corrupted since then, but I can go through Manage households to view them in CAS, so I upload them to my library, and put a copy in the game, and deleted the original.
I play rotationally, and I have 32 active households in that save file. Only two households are in residential rentals, and I have not played them yet, so I don’t really know if this is the same bug or not, but the timing of the increase in infinite loading screens coincides with it.
