[AA] Sims try to cook for themselves in hotels even when a chef is assigned
I built a hotel in the game and assigned a head chef to it. I set it up so the chef should be cooking, and the guests should just eat the meals. The issue is that the three separate interactions — Cook, Serve Food, and Eat — all trigger cooking. Because of this, a crowd gathers in the kitchen, and the chef can’t reach the counters to start cooking. I would like the Eat interaction not to involve cooking. It would also be great if serving food worked more like a service action. Or add a separate interaction for bringing prepared food. I don’t use mods or CC, and I have all the expansion packs installed.924Views104likes21CommentsPlant Sim: No option to absorb solar energy
I'm trying the plant-a-sim quest for the first time, and my plant Sims (I tried with 2) don't have the option to absorb solar energy from plants. I've tried on many different plants at different times of day, but they don't have the button for the interaction. At first I thought it was the genius trait on the first sim I tried, and that the "collect microscope sample" option was replacing it, but this is not the case, as tested by the other sim. I also tried removing all of my mods, and restarting the game(separately). I'm not sure what's causing the issue but I can't complete the quest without this interaction and can't find any record of anyone else having the same issue online.

During this scenario, when you need to be promoted to level 5 of the Tech Guru Career, it automatically skips to level 6. This means you can't complete the scenario step/goal to move forward with the story. I tried to use "testingcheats true" and then "careers.demote TechGuru" but it just automatically fires you, you can't be at level 5, which renders the scenario impossible to complete.

I recently encountered an issue with UI disappearing after loading from any screen to LIve Mode. So far, I have encountered this when taking a photo, leaving Build Mode, and loading a lot from traveling. Some things to note: I play on PC and own every piece of DLC. My game is updated to the recent version. This is a fresh install of The Sims 4. I even deleted the game file in which Mods, Screenshots, Saves, etc. are held. The only thing I kept were tray files and accountDataDB.package. I have already repaired my game. I have tested this in several ways. I can only replicate the bug in a household currently in a Scenario. I can even play a household in the same save as a Scenario household and it seems to be unaffected. When this bug occurs, I have to refresh the game. Occasionally, I can exit to the main menu and it will be fine. Other times, exiting to the main menu causes a black screen and I have to force close the game. I would say this bug occurs 25%-50% of the time. I've included a screenshot of what the bug looks like as well as a lastUIException.txt of the bug.1.6KViews30likes73CommentsCan't travel with more than 1 or 2 Sims
When I select travel on the phone a window pops up so I could select up to 7 sims to travel with. However I can only select one. I am playing the scenario with the Martínez family. There is the optional task of traveling to the park with the kids. I wanted to take both kids to the park with the mother, but I could select only one. It does not matter which parent I am on. I can select only one sim to travel with. The others are not greyed out, they are available for selecting, but I can not select them if I already selected one. I play on windows, I have all packs and almost all kits. ( I do not have the last two). I do not have any mods or cc.

AND LOOK!!! An another bug...😑
Hi... How are you? Me? I'm tired. EA HAS NO RESPECT for their customers. Now this, this is unfair: paying for something expensive and it came full of bugs. I bought more than R$800 (Brazilian money) in expansions, so then I want the minimum of respect. I'm not the only one with these bugs that I reported previously!!! So, I will correct myself, WE WANT RESPECT! Number of expansions/packs with bugs in my gameplay(there may be more, but I don't remember right now): •Werewolfves (distorted appearance, This one in particular I wouldn't fix 😅 it's funny and silly but still being a bug 🙁). •cottage living (cow stuck in limbo: in the family inventory in construction mode, I can't take Jusiscreia my sim's cow out of there no way).⚠️I HATE THIS ONE⚠️ • Dogs and Cats (I take the animals to the vet and the vets don't show up). ⚠️ I HATE THIS ONE⚠️ • Seasons (visually it rains in the house, very annoying to me) . • Dine Out (maybe it's t's more a gameplay issue? The chef only makes one dish in 12 hours when I'm supervising 🤡). • Ecolifestyle (I don't know if they fixed, cause I didn't play in Evergreen Habot since I reported this bug: visual problems in the scenario). Wishes: The price would be fairer, if they could put more than 2 personalities traits in the expansions or increase the number of editable lots with a minimum of 20 lots). Now, without irony or anything, all my respect to the developers/artists who put their hand to work in this company, but I had to say that! I know developing games its very hard, but that's the truth, expensive and full of bugs... That's all guys. See you, I know I'll come back again and again. 🥲286Views3likes1CommentParenting Predicaments: Complete Child Aspiration Task Won't Complete
As described in the title. In the Parenting Predicaments scenario, I've definitely completed the task to fulfil two child aspirations (several times over), but the task won't register as complete in the scenario tasks panel. I can't seem to find a resolution for this issue. I don't use any mods / custom content etc to my knowledge, and I'm using the base game only - no packs or add-ons etc. Hopefully you can see what I mean in the screenshot (see the panel in the top-left). I'm not techy so need jargon-free answers please! :)338Views3likes11CommentsParenting Predicaments: Send Kids to School While Focused fails to resolve
I'm trying to do the parenting predicaments scenario, but for some reason it won't check off that the kids are going to school in a focused mood. I got the tea brewer to make sure they were going to school focused literally every day, but it never checked off the list item. Now both kids are young adults, so they don't go to school anymore and have no way to complete the list item. I'm not sure why it wouldn't work when the kids were going to school, but now there's no way for me to complete the scenario at all. Edit By crinrict: Adjusted Title fit old bug report.
