[S] Sims dying from overheating in chilly weather

I’ve purchased the Life and Death pack, started to play with one of my sims and all of a sudden, while she was in Ravenwood nightclub, she died from overheating. That was strange because the temperature in that world is always chilly. But she’s a witch and I thought it was because she had used to much powers, so I didn’t bother too much. 
But yesterday I transferred her sister in the household to play with her as well. She’s only human btw. They were at a party on the river shore and once again, all of a sudden, without notice, I get the notification that she’s overheating. I try to get her in the water (even tho it was raining and again it was chilly) but she was already dying. This time there was no reason at all for her to die like this and since I never had a sim dying from overheating before I got the new Pack, I guess it may be related.

    Swimwear is not Hot Weather clothing, so it won't protect you from overheating. It's intended for moderate temperatures, just like all the other basegame outfit categories. However, that shouldn't be a problem if the weather was chilly.

  • I encountered this bug too. I logged into my household (I was playing with a different household before) and saw that one Sim had an overheating moodlet, even though it was winter. The other Sims in the household were fine. Changing into summer clothes didn't help.

    I also have the same Issue, overheating always occur even though weather is chill or even freezing. Anywhere in the world.

  • Ps5 player. For some reason, no matter how often i restart the game, it still reloads me to the same thing - my sim dying of overheating. Inside her house, with the aircon on, and her summer clothes on. No matter what i did, she still died. I dont know how to fix it, but until then, im not playing until its fixed. I dont want to lose this sim, ive put too much into her and will start playing again when I know she wont be killed as soon as I log in due to this reason.
