Agility Course Issues Sims 4

★★★ Newbie

All of my dogs will go through only one obstacle on the course at a time. I have to individually click to command the dog to go through EVERY. SINGLE. Obstacle. I’ve tried rearranging the course and haven’t gotten anywhere

Same problem, even using the prefab course in the build section but the only pack i have is the cats and dogs.

Edit: after the newest patch (Dunno what number dunno how to check) the problem no longer occurs.

Re: [OPEN] [CD] Pet doesn't complete obstacle course

I am finding that if I remove specifically the object “Obstacle - Platform”, my dogs will complete course as expected. Can not get any dog to jump on the platform (either by Run Obstacle Course or Command to use), but cats will use platform successfully. Have tested with platform as only item on lot, with max training skill, with a variety of dog breeds.

Yeah dogs can't use the obstacle platform. They complain about a routing failure when they try to use the platform.

I have tested in Pupperstone Park and in two builds that I had in my game where the obstacle course items previously were tested and worked. In all cases both my small and large dog have the 'x + footprint' 'blocked path/cannot use/cannot route' thought bubble when asked to use the platform.

 

My cat did jump up on it, though - probably to thumb her nose at the dogs. CatWink

The Obstacle - platform isn't working

★★★ Novice

Product: The Sims 4
Platform:PC
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? 1.54.120.1020
What expansions, game packs, and stuff packs do you have installed? All except the newest.
Steps: How can we find the bug ourselves? Click on the Obstacle - Platform and select either "Command pet to use" or "Run Obstacle Course with pet".
What happens when the bug occurs? The dog walks up to the Obstacle - Platform but it doesn't jump up on it and when it you have the Platform in the Obstacle Course it never finishes the Obstacle Course but if you remove it everything works fine.
What do you expect to see? When trying to use the Obstacle - Platform the dog is supposed to do the action that it is supposed to do not just walk up to it.
Have you installed any customization with the game, e.g. Custom Content or Mods? Never used.
Did this issue appear after a specific patch or change you made to your system? Neutral/Not Sure 

Nothing to add.

Same problem is happening to me. The platform is not working with dogs. And the cats seem to have noticed it. My cat jumped on it and started staring at my dog with judgemental eyes.

I can confirm. The platform works for a long time not for dogs, big or small. The other obstacles work and the course will also go through - if no platform is set up. Otherwise the course will hang.
