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? n/a
What expansions, game packs, and stuff packs do you have installed? Seasons, Vampires, Get to Work, Get Together, City Living, Cats and Dogs, Outdoor Retreat, Spa Day, Dine Out, Parenthood, Jungle Adventure, Spooky Stuff, Backyard, Vintage Glamour, Bowling Night, Fitness, My First Pet, Holiday
Steps: How can we find the bug ourselves? Have a vampire with always move as mist or always move as bat toggled. Then, try to skate on an ice rink.
What happens when the bug occurs? Sims dawns skates, goes towards the center ice, turns around, and gets off the rink.
What do you expect to see? Either allow a vampire with "always move as mist" or "always move as a bat" toggled on to skate or provide notification that a vampire cannot skate in those modes.
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
I have a skating rink inside my house and discovered that my vampires cannot skate unless they move like humans and not in either mist form or bat form.

merged your post with existing thread
If you turn off walk as mist/ fly as bat it should work.
The ghost could be different, have to try that. Guess it has something to do with the way they float.

I've encountered this bug just recently. Just another OLD bug nobody bothers to fix. At least this one is harmless.
