Re: [OPEN] Shower interaction not filling Hygiene need on Shower/Tub Combo

★★★★★ Novice

seems that the shower action never engages - the fulfillment circle around the action never starts, and sims can shower indefinitely. They just stand there and shower while needs decay indefinitely because the ball never gets rolling, as it were.

I have this issue too, the interactions for the shower/tub combo don't work but those for simple shower work.

Product: The Sims 4
Platform: Mac
Which language are you playing the game in? English
How often does the bug occur? Every time (100%)
What is your current game version number? 1.59.73.1020
What expansions, game packs, and stuff packs do you have installed? Discover University, Get Famous, Cats and Dogs, Get to Work, Island Living, City Living, Get Together, Strangerville, Parenthood, Vampires, Dine Out, Outdoor Retreat, Spa Day, Laundry Day, Vintage Glamour, Perfect Patio
Steps: How can we find the bug ourselves? Click on a shower/tub combo and have your Sim take any kind of shower
What happens when the bug occurs? This started yesterday after I downloaded the newest patch. Whenever my Sim takes a shower in a shower/tub combo, they stand in the shower with the animations and sounds going, but their hygiene bar doesn't move up at all. In fact, it goes down. My Sims have missed work because of this.
What do you expect to see? My Sims' hygiene bar going up and my Sims should be able to leave the shower when it's full.
Have you installed any customization with the game, e.g. Custom Content or Mods? Yes, but other users are having this problem w/o CC and Mods.
Did this issue appear after a specific patch or change you made to your system? Yes
Please describe the patch or change you made. This happened right after I installed the December 12th update. I’ve made no changes to my system.

I’m having the same issue, and I’d also add that playing in the bath doesn’t help the fun need. These both started with the new update.

One thing I will notate is that taking baths in the Shower/Bath combos still fulfills Hygiene Need, at least for me it does. Showers (Regardless of Thoughtful, Singing, Brisk, or Normal) no longer fulfill it.

I tested every shower in the game and all the single showers work fine. All the combos definitely don't.

@Vannah272 Thanks for testing that. I guess I'll be redoing my sims' bathroom for the time being.

I've only noticed this issue with the combo shower/tub units.  The single shower is working for me at least.  It's still an issue, just started with the most recent patch.

Did this issue appear after a specific patch or change you made to your system? Yes
Please describe the patch or change you made. It were fine before the latest updade

When sims shower, in the duo type shower/bath, it does not fill their hygiene, leaving them showering for-ever (Tu-tu-tuuum) unless you cancel the action of doing so (which can decay the hygiene need of the sim). Other showers/baths (who only serve 1 function) seem to work fine.

*Note* : This is my first post ever using EA (I am still not sure at 100% if I'm doing this right lol. I am posting this so that the more people talk about that bug, the faster the developers gonna see it and the faster it's gonna get fixed. Thanks for reading and thank you for the future bug fixes. Cat
