[AD] [RL] Secret Lovers automatically become Partners when a sim dies

In multiple saves/households, I had sims with secret lovers, and when any sim dies in the household, EACH secret lover suddenly converted to a regular partner for all other sims in the household (including the dead one if you choose to be a playable ghost). It kind of ruins the drama in my opinion. This happened whether the sim with the secret lovers was the one who died, or if it was another household member.  It also happens when a sim dies on another lot from where the sim with secret lovers is. Bug happens with and without MCCC mod enabled.

    I'm having this too and will try without mods and deleted necessary files.

     

    Edit: Tried without mods, deleted files and what not. Still happens. It's not restricted to household deaths, for me it's when anyone dies? It happened to a sim in a single household when some random sim died by neighbourhood stories.

    Hi megadegdeg​ 

    I merged this with another thread on the issue.

    Could you confirm if you are using mods and what your platform is ?

    Royalty & Legacy: My Sim has a secret lover and it was fine but then I got a notification of a sims death and suddenly a pop up appears saying they are now the partner of my sim.

    I reloaded my save, the same happened. I loaded it again, same issue. I ended the relationship, started over, happened again when another death notification popped up.

    Death of a non household sim is the trigger. Secret Lover is not in the played household.

  • Could you please provide the following information

    • Did you just disable mods or physically remove the entire mods folder, deleted the cache files and test this on a new save ?
    • What platform are you playing on (PC, Mac, Playstation, XBox). Please pick a thread tag for that.
