Skill bars keep getting stuck

★★★★ Novice

 

My sims will be working on a skill and the bar will show 100%, get stuck, and it'll still be there when they do other activies. When I look at their skills whatever skill their working on will show a different percentage. Although the skill bar does tend to disappear eventually.

i have same problem since installing the latest patch.  if i do a reset sim it will get rid of skill bar.  until i do skill again and it can be the same or different skill still gets stuck.  this is with or with out mods (which the couple i use are up to date) and no i dont have the skill mod installed. while this is happening.

For me it works to do the same interaction again. Then it usually goes away.

My main Sim's Logic skill level is ovewr 488% and it increases with everything she does even if its not Logic related. Any ideas?

@MiniMurderMitten Merged. Try doing any interaction for that skill again. That usually gets rid of it fo me

I have been playing Origin's free Game Time offer for the Sims 4 and had the same issue: Logic crept up to about 542%! 

By resetting the sim in question I was able to remove the aberrant, permanent skill bar floating above her head. However, her Logic skill remained glitched and refused to increas level. 

On reading this thread I tried the above suggestion to start a skill gaining activity focused on Logic again. The percentage dropped back down to 72%, and the bar over her head followed suit a few seconds later - changing from a permanently full bar back to the appropriate level.

So, thanks very much to crinrict; it worked perfectly! Just a shame that I have to rebuild that 400 or so Logic skill from scratch. 
If anyone from EA is reading this, you really need to organise a fix. This error is weighting me heavily towards not purchasing the full game.

I've only experienced this with the Logic skill - especially after playing cards. Reset Sim works, but so does going out into the Map. I've had it happen with two different Sims.

I was having this issue forever and this thread actually helped me solve it so I thought I would let everyone know the fix! Activate cheats (press [Ctrl] + [Shift] + C (or [Cmnd] + [Shift] + C on an Apple comp) then activate the cheaty cheats (type "testingcheats true" into the white bar that came up and press enter) then type  "stats.set_skill_level [skill name] [1-10]" for whichever skill is above 100%... In my case and it seems like everyones, it was logic. So I typed  "stats.set_skill_level Major_Logic 5" (I was at 140% of level 4 logic, so I just made it level 5, I probably earned that). Your other option if that is too much is to just download the "[Script Mod] enable advanced debug/cheat interactions" and just [Shift] + [Click] on your sim and click set skill level. Hope this helps anyone!

I'm 99% convinced this has something to do with the chessboard (and probably Play Chess with... interaction). This problem is constantly happening to my child sims.

Resetting my sim fixed this issue for me. Thanks!
