Polishing objects never completes
Product: The Sims 4 Platform: PC Issue description: Since installing the Royalty & Legacy Expansion Pack, Sims are unable to finish polishing objects. The interaction starts normally, but it never completes, even after several in-game minutes. This happens not only with my active Sim, but also with maid service. They continue polishing indefinitely and the object never reaches a completed state. Mods/CC: No mods or custom content. Steps to reproduce: Select an object that can be polished. Choose the "Polish" interaction. The Sim starts polishing but never finishes, even after several in-game hours. Expected result: The polishing interaction should complete after a normal amount of time. Actual result: The Sim keeps polishing indefinitely and the interaction never ends.
I can't play my house because my father is now showing up as 'neighbor'
Im playing as a single father of one toddler and a puppy and I took them both outside to play in the snow. Somehow they got stuck routing so I reset them both. Well turns out it wasn't a routing issue because when I tried to take them both inside only the toddler could go in but the father could not go in the house. I was still able to get him to move around the house, but not go inside. I hovered my cursor on him and a red label above his name reads Neighbor now but this is HIS HOUSE. Mind you the toddler is still inside so there's nothing I can do about that. Even when I try to reset sim. nothing. I can't even click on him because nothing happens so now I have to start a new household which is sad because I've invested 100 hours into this household already. (milestones, mastered jungle exploration, so so much progress)
[LD] Sim in another household not dying/repeat inventory message
I’ve had multiple generations of the same family in the Sims 4. Recently, I started getting a pop-up about a sim in a previous household (the generation before my current household) has died and has asked me what I want to do with their inventory. I always select “move sim’s inventory to former household inventory.” The issue is that this has happened for the same sim about 3 dozen times. About 24 hours after this started happening, the sim came over for a party then died. Now, the grim reaper keeps reaping the sim resulting in multiple urns.

[FR] Landlord doesn't inspect/fix broken objects (Patch 1.124.63/2.34)
During maintenance events such as Electical Failure, if my sims call the property owner (Panya Li) he comes over and starts complaining about the mess, cleaning up, taking out the trash, etc, instead of fixing any of the broken objects. He even spends awhile mopping the puddles caused by the broken fridge and dishwasher instead of simply repairing them. I wish the prioritization was different, so that he would first fix any broken objects, and only afterwards start cleaning up.

After they mentioned that the *Life & Death* phone call would be tweaked specifically for the "Macabre" trait, I thought the *The Sims* team would take the opportunity to fix an oversight: when the Grim Reaper calls to offer you a position in the Death career, you are taken to the career menu instead of being immediately added to the career. However, in another expansion (I believe *Eco Lifestyle*?), when you are offered a job, you are added immediately without the menu appearing. This breaks immersion. In today's Q&A (June 23, 2026), I asked the devs if this oversight—or bug—would be fixed, given that the "Laundry List" mentions an adjustment to that same Grim Reaper phone call system. They said no, claiming that's simply how the career-joining UI works. But that isn't true, since it doesn't happen with other job offers. I then asked them to let the team know, and the dev also suggested I make a post on the forum. I’ve attached a video showing how the system breaks immersion when a pop-up appears allowing you to choose any career right after the Grim Reaper himself calls you. It also renders the phone call pointless. A server member asked for the career entry levels to be adjusted to match the other system (likely the *Eco Lifestyle* one); I liked their suggestion and believe the starting level could be calculated based on skills—resulting in a higher or lower level—rather than just defaulting to level 5.
Rocks and dig sites not respawning (Patch 1.112.512)
I've searched the forum and the last update I found was from 7 years ago. Reposting as this is a new issue for me. Product: Sims 4 Platform: PC Which language are you playing the game in? English How often does the bug occur? Every time (100%) What expansions, game packs, and stuff packs do you have installed? Get to Work, Crystal Creations, Growing Together, Jungle Adventure, Outdoor Adventure Steps: How can we find the bug ourselves? Go to any BG neighborhood (or those in the listed expansion, game, and stuff packs) and search for a dig or rock site. Where they normally spawn, they are not here. I downloaded a rock/dig lot specifically to test what was going on and rocks/dig sites still didn't respawn after digging up the entire lot. What happens when the bug occurs? Rocks and dig piles do not appear in any of the neighborhoods. What do you expect to see? Rocks and dig piles respawning after being dug up, even if I have to wait a few in-game sim days for it to happen. Have you installed any customization with the game, e.g. Custom Content or Mods? No. Never. Did this issue appear after a specific patch or change you made to your system? Yes. After downloading Crystal Creations. Edit By Crinrict: Adjusted Title
