Re: [OPEN] Dishes being ignored when cleaning up

I'm not sure if this is entirely related but my sims, even the neat ones during their cleaning frenzy, will ignore more than just the dishes. They seem to pick a few items to pick up then move on with their lives while still in cleaning frenzy state.. I also had a bug with my coffee maker getting cleaned. One time I left the lot and my coffee maker had just vanished. I could not find it anywhere and had to buy another one. The second time the coffee had become spoiled but it can never be cleaned because it was "Still brewing" I tried putting the coffee maker in my inventory and moving it and ultimately had to sell it as it was completely unusable and upsetting my sims. I took a recording of my coffee maker bug. And while I'm still on the subject of cleaning, my sims will ignore pet poop 100% of the time and just get upset about stepping in it. And my sims leave books lying everywhere and fail to deal with them all using the "Pick up books" interaction at the bookcase. Sorry if this is too far off topic but cleaning seems to be a big issue now.

i do, mostly with glasses. =(

i've also seen the still brewing/spoiled tea issue. glad i'm not alone--i thought i was imagining things.

 

putting away books ignores those in a Sim's inventory.

till have the issue too, i'll ask to clean up a plate and instead of cleaning them all it'll clean just the one, or pick up a few but not all. 

Also, some plates are always ignored when on the high chair, or on half walls. In such cases, I need to specifically tell the sim to pick up that plate. Annoying !!

Hi, I've had this problem too since the recent patch (February 22nd). Have you managed to find a solution or is it still doing it?

 

Thanks,

I just started having this issue after the latest patch.

 

Sim only cleans selected dish. Doesn't matter if other dishes are stinky. If I click on the dishwasher to wash dishes, it says there are no dirty dishes.

After the latest patch I am also having this issue.

 

My sims will ONLY clean their own plates. They will not clean multiples. If I click "Load dishwasher" they will only clean the last plate they interacted with, or the option will be greyed out even with multiple dishes on the lot.

 

I have to manually click every dish on the lot to clean them one at a time. Butlers and maids will not clean dishes at all.

 

I have done the following:

- tried with and without mods

- tried an old save

- tried a fresh save (both with and without mods, fresh each time)

- reset my sims folder

- repaired the game

 

Short of completely reinstalling, I've tried everything I can think of to isolate the issue. 

 

I'm adding my info here to hopefully add to the future resolving of this issue. 

 

Thanks!!
