Writing book progress resets after Loading Screen

It says it has been fixed in the latest update but it's still going on for me. I do not and never have used mods. My sim was halfway done with her book, I canceled the action and went into cas, when I resumed it started from almost the beginning and not the middle where I had left off.

  • Hi Sims4Free25​ 

    what platform are you playing on ?

    I gave this some tests and I can see several things happening

    • Going to CAS: The progress resets to almost empty at first but then quickly fills up to almost where it was before
    • Travelling: Some progress is lost but not a lot.
    • Cancel/Resume: Starts where it should.
    • Reload save: Seems to have a small loss

    Can you test these four cases and see what happens for you ? 

    I also find the timer rather unpredictable. It doesn't go forward steadily but rather jumps.

    I've seen a similar topic in closed threads, so I'm creating a new one. When trying to resume writing a book, the action very often gets reset. I've noticed that book writing "breaks" most frequently when another household member travels to a different lot during the writing process, but sometimes it also happens without switching to another lot. (A similar situation is observed with painting pictures as well.)

    I play on PC, mods disabled.
