Product: The Sims 4
Platform:PC
Which language are you playing the game in? Deutsch
How often does the bug occur? Often (50% - 99%)
What is your current game version number? Latest update, don't know the number
What expansions, game packs, and stuff packs do you have installed? Pretty much everything, the problem is within Dream Home Decorator though
Steps: How can we find the bug ourselves? 1. Accept a job in the dream home decorator career and choose "accompany sim to work". 2. After finishing a home decorating job, call back the clients and choose to stay for the reveal. 3. Ask clients about their wishes for the project or their likes and dislikes.
What happens when the bug occurs? 1. Sim arrives at the client's home and immediately leaves/disappears, a notification says that the sim is off to work. Have to stay at the client's lot and do nothing or click "leave work early" and earn a bad reputation and no money. 2. In the few occurences that I am able to actually decorate the home, my sim leaves the lot even though I chose to stay for the reveal. 3. Asking about client's likes gives me the same like twice. My list looked like this: video games - color white - fitness - video games.
What do you expect to see? 1. I expect to be able to actually do the job and decorate the home of the client instead of just being beamed away upon arrival. 2. Sim stays and I can do the reveal myself. 3. There shouldn't be the same like/hobby/etc twice, they all should be different.
Have you installed any customization with the game, e.g. Custom Content or Mods? Not now. I've removed them.
Did this issue appear after a specific patch or change you made to your system? No
Please update soon so the career is actually playable.

I'm going there via the popup since I don't know where some of the families live and don't wanna search for them. My sim disappears as "gone to work" as soon as I arrive on the lot. Sometimes I manage to be quick enough to stop the action but usually I can't since it's like immediately.

Yeah, my own sim leaves and it's just like if I'd chosen to not accompany her to work at all. Got the same problem with a newly made sim as well. Tried a fix too, yes. Unfortunately nothing is working so far.

Cooking dinner right now but will do! Thanks for helping. It's super frustrating..

Here's the save - thanks for checking this out. Tried finding the bug again after dinner but as I said, nothing seems to be helping.
I've tried with a game repair again - not working.
Reinstalled my mods since there doesn't seem to be a difference having them in there or not. Don't know DHD is driving me crazy.

Yeah, have the endless saving thingy too. Was a pain in the ... to get past that. Somehow it saved while she went to take a picture. Super annoying.
I'm still getting the bug, wish I knew what's causing it. I since reinstalled everything and it's still there
Mods don't seem to be causing it, since I wiped them all and same mistake.
Did you try more than once? It doesn't happen every time I travel to a lot but 2 out of 3 I'd say. Last one was a simple room renovation.
