[NEEDS SAVES] Sim resets after digging for collectibles

[ Edited ]
★★★ Guide

Product: The Sims 4
Platform:PC
Which language are you playing the game in? English
How often does the bug occur? Occasionally (10% - 49%)
What is your current game version number? 1.93.146.1020
What expansions, game packs, and stuff packs do you have installed? Almost all
Steps: How can we find the bug ourselves? Make a queue of digging (dirt patches or rocks) actions.
What happens when the bug occurs? The sim resets (glitching and arms wide open for a second, same visuals as you would use the resetsim cheat) after a digging action and the action queue is cancelled.
What do you expect to see? No resetting of sims
Have you installed any customization with the game, e.g. Custom Content or Mods? Not now. I've removed them.
Did this issue appear after a specific patch or change you made to your system? No

There is a bug in the sims that my sim gets reset by the game after performing a digging action on a dirt patch or rock.

Usually I make a queue of digging actions, so that my sim can walk around the neighborhood finding collectibles. 

However sometimes my sim gets reset and the whole queue is gone.

I'm having this problem for quite a while (one year or more?) now.

Anyone else recognizing this?

@crinrict Do I need to have a LastException notification in game to have a LastException file?

because I don't get such notifications.

@Heddelviven you only get notifications in the game when you have a mod. Vanilla games just create the exception files in your doc folder.

Best you can do is delete all the files you currently have, then trigger the error and see if a new one is created.

I've not noticed the Sim reset, but I do know my Sim does always drop the queue after digging. I'm not seeing a last exception for it; my most recent file is from trying to build a snowpal. I've had my Sim digging a few times since then, and each time the queue reset with no other error.

Hey all,

Just checking in to see if anyone is still seeing this on a modless game as we've been unable to reproduce it on our end.

If so please share your save file with us (instructions: http://x.ea.com/74420) so we can take a look.

Thanks!
