@crinrict I'm having the issue... I have 2 played households in separate worlds and the butlers keep switching between them... some times I get my butler sometimes its the butler of the other household... its really annoying because then I have to go through the whole assign bed thing all over again... I have all packs and i do use mods but they are up to date

Butler Getting Replaced

[ Edited ]
★★★ Novice

Product: The Sims 4
Platform:PC
Which language are you playing the game in? English
How often does the bug occur? Often (50% - 99%)
What is your current game version number? 1.60.54
What expansions, game packs, and stuff packs do you have installed? Get Together, Discover University, Island Living, City Living, Strangerville, Vampires, Tiny Living, Laundry Day, Vintage Glamour, Kids Room, Perfect Patio.
Steps: How can we find the bug ourselves? Get a butler, max out relationship, leave lot, come back. (May take more than once, but could happen in one time)
What happens when the bug occurs? I formed a relationship with my butler that I edited in CAS, high friendship and romantic, no best friend or girlfriend status, I left my lot, and my Butler was gone and a different appeared in a moment.
What do you expect to see? I expected to see original butler at my lot who I assigned a bed and they were gone. I tried going back to and old save and the exact same thing happened.
Have you installed any customization with the game, e.g. Custom Content or Mods? Yes
Did this issue appear after a specific patch or change you made to your system?

I have a romantic relationship with my butler (not a girlfriend though) and I left the lot and she was gone when she came back. I got the same issue twice. The only mod I have in MCC Command so I highly doubt that’s causing as issue there. Has anyone else had this issue?

 

Edit: here is the save file.

There, I put the save in my original post so it's by the helpful information and context. 

 

EDITSo, after some more testing, it seems to be after an event like a friend inviting out or a birthday party or something like that. That's when my Butler disappears and then gets replaced for no reason.

Re: [NEEDS SAVES] [VGSP] Butler changes after going to another lot

I just hosted a birthday party for my toddler on another lot and when I returned, I found that my butler - that I'd had for quite a while now! - had been replaced by another one. I'd just hosted a birthday party on that same lot for another sim in the household a few days ago and the butler had not changed then, so I am not sure what the significant difference was between these two instances.

Re: Butler randomly changing, visitor management not working

★★ Apprentice

Product: The Sims 4
Platform:Playstation 4
Which language are you playing the game in? English
How often does the bug occur? Often (50% - 99%)
What is your current game version number? 1.23
What expansions, game packs, and stuff packs do you have installed? Island Living, Seasons, Cool Kitchen Stuff, Dine Out, Get to Work, Parenthood, Cats & Dogs, Toddler Stuff, City Living, Laundry Day Stuff, Vampires, Vintage Glamour Stuff, Get Famous.
Steps: How can we find the bug ourselves? Butler is already working, just wait ten in-game minutes, go to work/leave the lot when the game asks you, and get back to the lot.
What happens when the bug occurs? The butler is replaced by a different one when returning back to the lot. Though the bed is still assigned to the previous butler.
What do you expect to see? The butler I originally hired still working on the lot.
Have you installed any customization with the game, e.g. Custom Content or Mods? No, because I'm playing on console. No cheats have been used either.
Did this issue appear after a specific patch or change you made to your system? No idea as I got Vintage Glamour Stuff fairly recently after the latest patch (as of this post) had already been installed.

 

Link to the save right before having to leave the lot (actor career) and with the original hired butler:

Though I have to point out this happens whenever you leave to any other lot, whether it's for work or not. Or at least that has happened to me so far.
