Steps: How can we find the bug ourselves? Not available to start eco shop shift for three days now even when sims are not busy doing anything else. Unable to start workshop shifts meaning I’ve lost a lot of rewards.
What do you expect to see? Make eco shift available to participate in

My eco shop has not shown an option to start a shift for three days now. Even when I have available sims to do so, there is no way to being a workshop shift. What do I do. Spent a lot on the game cannot delete it or it will erase everything but I need workshop shifts to earn rewards. Plz help.

@2gprn3a7k7zk Hi, have you tried restarting the app multiple times when your sims aren’t in any event to see if one of the sims would pop up a completed Eco shift?

Also, have you made sims passive/ retired that might have been the last doing the Eco shift?

@Ilois4 I might have retired one but I’m not sure because it let me do it saying that the sim wasn’t busy Frown how do they fix it?

@2gprn3a7k7zk Hi, try going through your passive/retired sims in the family portrait/generations tab. Click the sim and then exit the family portrait.

You might have to restart the app before trying to interact with the passive/retired sim.

If you’re not sure which sim might be stuck with the Eco shift, usually the stuck passive/retired sims can’t be interacted with and might be just doing one thing in the lot or not moving at all. Game might also say that they’re already in an event or busy.
