[OPEN] Skill Point Bar Stuck

[redgal83]

So, I"m having the same problem with the stuck skill bar above the sim's head. I've reset the sims, sent them to a lot and back, sent them to work and back and even restarted the game. All to no avail. The stupid skill bar is still stuck there. Any other suggestions for how to get it to go away??

The most common fix is to find out what skill it is (mostly logic) and then skill that again.

Has anyone managed to fix the bug where a skill bar gets stuck above the Sims head after they finish an activity? This happens always when my sim uses the computer, builds logic, or works out and I don't know how to stop it without just quitting my game.

If you look closely after skill, the skill bars sort of fade away after awhile. Maybe they're just stuck a bit too long and then do what they are supposed to.

I merged your post.

There's a few suggestions in this thread

shutting down game and restarting a saved game fixed the stuck bar for me.  the bug has something to do with the alternative telescope mod (the small one) I am pretty sure

Sometimes when my sim does a skill the skill bar won't dissappear. I have already tried reseting my sim but it doest work. This also happens with the customer bar in the get to work expansion.

Try reloading your game. That should get rid of it

Now I'm having this problem since the new update. Only one person in the lot, can be different person, from any skill, but one always have this problem. It only disappears when they leave the lot (got to work/school), and when that happens it will struck another sim until he leaves and then happens to another one. Rather annoying, and ruining the experience.
