I'm getting the same error when trying to purchase a Small Business Lot, I haven't tried travel or anything on this save yet though.
Original post: Playing on Mac, all expansion packs but not all game/stuff packs or kits. No mods or CC.
When I try to make my Sim purchase a Small Business Lot, it opens the "Choose a Season" menu and just loops this when I select one and click Confirm.
This issue just began happening with me while playing on PC. When selecting the Purchase a Small Business Lot option, the Choose a Season menu opens and, as others have reported, when making a selection and clicking the confirm button, it just stays on the screen.
Solution (or Band-Aid): As per user KahakotheFae, the following appears to have resolved the issue.
* Reset Discovery Quests
* Reset Guidance system
* Save and exit to menu
* Load a different save
* (I don't know if this is necessary, but I repeated the first three steps)
* Load the save where the issue was occurring
* (When loading the original save, I was prompted to select a season. This may, in part, explain the bug. Is some of the information being saved in a shared folder instead of with each save?)
I've been playing this save for almost 30 hours. As an aside, yesterday, I was asked (inconsistently) to choose a season when traveling to a different world.
This is the first time I've experienced either issue. Normally, I'm only asked to choose a season once when starting a new game.
Edit: After reading the linked thread, I'd like to note that Trashley visited me before this happened to give me the "add a second business" discovery quest. I had discovery quests turned off, as I was constantly spammed with the same quests (e.g., telephone, going out). Talking to him also caused discoveries to be automatically turned back on (without permission).
Unrelated to the seasons issue, I just want to vent for a moment about how buggy my experience has been with small businesses. It's really buggy! My active sim and NPCs often do nothing. Love the concept, but not that it's buggy.
