Aging bug testing of patch 1.90.358.1030

[SimmerStar4]

@Sid1701d9 Yes, reports seem to suggest it's solely an issue with reloading rather than CAS specifically. I do not have the new pack but it seems to me that the game can't process the age data correctly in short and long lifespans when reloading, but doesn't necessarily autoage them - my Child Sim got very close to the end of her life stage but not enough to age up.

@SimmerStar4 Do you have the high school years pack because it may have something to do with the hidden content of the pack that is not accessible with the patch.

Even with aging turned off with default sim lifespan settings, my sims were aging a few days whenever I entered CAS or loaded my game.

Yep, Mine too!

@absadot Same thing here! I am so furious I was 3 days(sims days) into new High School pack I just threw down $44 on and wham outta nowhere my sim aged to young adult! Now I have to completely start over! I even placed lots in world and everything.

@absadot I have the same problem since the newest patch. I'm running a vanilla game and had an entire family all age up after I modified some clothing on one! Now my BRAND NEW sim has been labeled as a "global superstar' when her chosen trait is friend of the world! ARGH

Apparently EA forgot to turn off the lock out features for the High School Years, the only sims that work on long life span is in the Copperdale neighborhood.  So all of the copperdale sims keep there age level.  it seems to be Teen and up that is effected by the bug.  Toddlers and kids appear to be fine.

I opened a longtime save file upon installing High School Years and sorting through my mods folder until I could get it to load, at all. Right away, I noticed one sim would not eat. As I was focusing on that sim, another was queued to use the toilet and shower. I look back at that second sim and see they have aging up in their queue. She was no where close to aging up. So, aging up is not just happening after leaving CAS or leaving and returning to a lot.

I should add, all I did after opening the save was having child sims shower and pee and attempt to eat. I made it all of two sims hours before I gave up and closed the game, for fear of messing up my legacy househould.

I can confirm that I had two toddlers (one whom was close to a birthday and one who wasn’t anywhere near) who both immediately aged up after exiting CAS. I immediately logged out and didn’t spend any time seeing what would happen with the rest of the household once I realized something was wrong. But I can confirm this affected my toddlers..
