    Recently I've been having an issue with my game, where if one of my sims travels to a different lot whilst my other sims are at work/ school they'll come straight home. This is really annoying as I can't send them back to work/ school so it lowers their progress.  They're not travelling with this sim so I don't understand why they'll be sent home. 

    I'm aware this June update has been causing people some issues, so I don't know if it is related to that. I play on my MacBook with the Sims 4 game up to date. If anyone could help me figure out how to fix this, it'll be very much appreciated.

    Product: The Sims 4
    PlatformPC
    Which language are you playing the game in? English
    How often does the bug occur? Every time (100%)
    What is your current game version number? 1.115.253.1020 DX11
    What expansions, game packs, and stuff packs do you have installed? Seasons, Holiday Celebration Pack, Get to Work, Discover University, Dine Out
    Steps: How can we find the bug ourselves? Have sims either at work, university, school or "somewhere they're supposed to be"; THEN, travel with an active sim to another lot; 
    What happens when the bug occurs? All the "somewhere they're supposed to be" sims will automatically end their "work day", return to their home lot with the little money they've earnt.
    What do you expect to see? Them to remain to their job or "place where they're supposed to be".
    Have you installed any customization with the game, e.g. Custom Content or Mods? Affected equally, both in new and older games. Modded or not.
    Did this issue appear after a specific patch or change you made to your system? Yes
    Please describe the patch or change you made. The 'Nature's calling' patch seems to be the problem.

    I've attempt to localise where the problem of this patch was. These are my conclusions.

    It appears that the "Nature's calling" event while ACTIVE (specifically for me it was the 2nd or 3rd mission I think - the one to go to a park and listen to the wind) causes the problem. That meaning that while I ACTIVATED but not carried it out, sims would return from their jobs early whenever I'd travel to any lot or even return home from another lot.
    Completing the mission and NOT taking another one has looked to fix the problem all together.
    According to lastexpection the error resides within the 'Live Event UI dialog system'.
