@tayashwal no, they never give info on when or if they are releasing a fix. You usually have to wait and see if it appears in a future update. There's been update patches every month, but not always.

Depends on whether they can fix the issue by finding the cause, test it so that it doesn't break even more stuff, and roll it out at the same time they're patching for stuff (e.g. a new pack or free content release).

You get better results when it's a major bug like this one with hundreds of people replying here and clicking the Me Too button on the first post.

I’m still having this issue even after installing the new patch released on the 16/20. Tested on a save with no mods or cc and the issue remains. Travel to new location = no progress on prep tasks.

I understand a major bug like this probably takes a lot of work to fix but I'm so disappointed they put out another patch without fixing this Frown I made my first actress sim right after the career breaking patch and I was super excited because I haven't messed around too much yet with a Sim where wanting to be a celebrity and famous actress was their main thing. Then I ran into this gem of a bug. The only work around I've found so far is basically to cheat. I put testingcheats on and teleport around the lot so I have enough time to do my prep tasks and my work day tasks before the end of the workday tasks. I'm getting really sick of having to do the work around though. I keep thinking about giving up and changing her career or changing to another sim but I was so excited for this :/

A few days ago in the start of my acting career on a new sim, I had no issues. after she got a few promotions I am now having this issue and it is making it difficult to max career >.< and now I have moved in another acting sim who is at acting career 2 and is also having these issues. I think it broke again after the last patch/update ??? :<

@jainx96 I am having this issue too, I wasn't having it until the latest patch. If anyone finds a fix, let me know please. I am going to ask Little Miss Sam if she can fix it! :D

@Hey_Simsters I am guessing this is EA problem or Little Miss Sam would have mod out by now.
