I had a household in the world that comes with Businesses & Hobbies. I moved this household by phone to the new world that comes with Enchanted by nature. He had 21,700 something simoleans, and after...
Ideas
When I move a household - either via the phone or via manage households when in manage worlds - the household funds go wonky and I lose way more than I should. I am not currently playing with any mods, and I tried to move again after deleting localthumbache, just to see if that helped. But this actually happened earlier in this same game, the first time I moved the family as well. I cheated to get back the funds I had, but now realizing it may be a bigger issue.
I have provided screenshots to show the issue - my family has over 23k in funds when moving, the house they move into is just under 20k. In the initial move window, it says my family will have a little under 4k in household funds, which is the appropriate calculation. But as you can see in the screenshot, once playing the family in the new lot, they are now at over -2k. So that's about a 6k difference, 6k that is being taken away from my household in the move for no apparent reason.
/Also, to add to above, I "sold furniture", but there wasn't much to sell - however, all of the inventory items that were in the apothecary table and any other storage item are also all gone. I'm guessing it got sold with the furniture, but I don't remember that being how it used to work. I might be wrong, but previously when I had storage items in my household inventory, whatever was within those items remained there when moving. Not sure if the two are connected, but sharing in case they are.
I've just had the same glitch! All my household inventory is missing too.
I am also having this problem! When I move my family they should have almost 20k left but they have 0 simoleons. The money cheat is also not working so I can't just cheat them the money back. My household inventory is still with them though.
I'm having the same issue, just tried to move and sell all my furniture, ended with -4000 after I moved. I even tried on a different save and same thing.
This is the second time I've had this problem. The first time I had it was about six months ago and it wasn't a ghost that I was using, nor a teen or any other cheats that I can recall. I don't use Mods, so I doubt it has to do with that. This was a runaway scenario and so I did use the Money 0 cheat when I started the game on the first lot. Not sure if it's carrying over here. I luckily did a save JUST before the move, so I can easily go back.
I typically put plants and anything else I want to keep before moving and then sell the furniture. I've exited the game, repaired it and it still happens when I sell the furniture or keep it. If I "keep furniture", it doesn't keep the furniture either. The furniture is still in the previous lot.
The first images are from the first house I had before moving:
These are during the move, showing how much funds I had to work with, how much the lot costs, and how much would have been left in both selling or keeping the furniture:
These are the result after I moved, both from keeping and selling furniture:
Happy to provide the file if needed.
