[GF] wrong title in acting performance report

[ Edited ]
★★★★★ Apprentice

Product: The Sims 4
Platform: PC
Which language are you playing the game in? English
How often does the bug occur? Always
What is your current game version number? 1.109.207.1020
What expansions, game packs, and stuff packs do you have installed? All packs, most kits
Steps: How can we find the bug ourselves? As a married actress, complete a performance successfully while using the GRAM acting agency
What happens when the bug occurs? The report from the agency refers to the sim as "Miss" (see attachment)
What do you expect to see? "Miss" should only be used for an unmarried female sim. If you need to use a title for females regardless of marital status, use "Ms." Otherwise, "Mrs." should be used for married females.
Have you installed any customization with the game, e.g. Custom Content or Mods? Not anymore, I've removed them.
Did this issue appear after a specific patch or change you made to your system? Unknown.

 

The mods I have installed have nothing to do with acting, so shouldn't affect this. This is (to the best of my memory) the first time I've used the GRAM agency, certainly the first time recently, so the first time I've seen this.

 

Edit: After the next performance, with mods disabled, I got the same message from the GRAM agency. They again called Mrs. Jacobson Miss Jacobson. She is not amused, and is thinking of switching agencies again.

Grammar: "Pickup" vs. "Pick Up"; Unusual Capitalization Style on Moodlet

[ Edited ]
★★★ Novice

I have two concerns, the first is a grammar mistake, and the second is that a new moodlet uses sentence casing versus title cases, falling outside of the norm.

 

Grammar concern:

"Pickup" is a noun or adjective, not a verb. This direction should read "Pick Up Soul," which provides the verb.

 

 

 

Style mismatch concern:

The title of this moodlet is a full-on sentence. In other cases of complete sentences, title case is used, as moodlet titles are, well, titles.

This goes against the style that the game has used for ten years. Additionally, the sentence should read "Oh, look, an opening to another dimension. How cute," with a comma after "oh", and after "look".

 

Example of a complete sentence using title case:

I don't claim to be perfect with grammar or spelling, or understanding the TS4 style guide -there are folks who are much more attuned to the nuances than I- but these stick out as things that can be solved.

Re: [COLLECTION THREAD] Various Text and Translation Errors

Agnes and Agatha Crumplebottom from COL are cousins. However, the build mode description of the Agatha's Series of Misfortunate Events Lamppost refers to Agnes as Agatha's sister. I included a picture of the object description as well as a picture of one of the Henford Heart-to-hearts that indicates they are cousins. I believe the lamppost's description is the only instance where they are incorrectly referred to as sisters.

The Modern Countertop by Mikulino from Dream Home Decorator has a typo in its description. It reads "...This marries the perfect balance of industrial and modern, and let's appliances get introduced to their surfaces effortlessly." It should read "and lets appliances get introduced to their surfaces effortlessly," with lets instead of let's.

Text is incorrect for the completed daily task in the Nature Historian rank of the Conservationist career. There is an extra period that makes the text cluttered and incorrect compared to other career's displays for completed daily tasks.
