[FIXED] Sims returning from work too early [ Edited ]

[thesimsfan15]

Hi, since the swimming pool update i have noticed an annoying problem with sims when they go to work.

My sims go to work and then come home again roughly an hour later (in game time) when in fact they should have stayed there for much longer. When they come home they bring home their normal paycheck with them and the hours to work countdown resets to being 23hrs until work begins.While it's not exactly a game breaking problem or anything i am finding it really annoying. It appears to happen due to the fact that the sim's work interaction gets automatically cancelled out for some reason. I have tweeted EA's support page on twitter about the problem and they suggested going into origin and repairing the game. I did this but it doesnt seem to have made much of a difference.

Whenever this has happened i have been playing the same saved game each time and am not sure whether or not the problem occurs on other saved games.

Believe it to be fixed

I've noticed that with my teens and children.

Oh I see, with me though it only happens with adults and children and teens go to school and come home as normal. Its weird. I hope there is an easy fix or patch for it soon.

This happens to me as well. Only if sims go out and then come back home while another sim is at work. The sim would leave work early, get there paycheck for there time. But there job performance would suck.

Im having that exact same problem and i cant for the life of me figure out how to fix it.

Does it happen regularly or just randomly ?

[tylers1126]

It happens regularly

[crinrict]

Meaning every time ? If so, are you willing to share your save game ?

[tylers1126]

How do I do that

[crinrict]

Go to this folder documents\electronicarts\thesims4\ and find a folder called save. Zip that up with winrar or another zip program and then upload to mediafire or dropbox. Then PM me the link. Do let me know which game/family it occurs in.
