i mistakenly posted this to the "Various Text Errors" thread.

this Sim acquired a wrong skill, because the one they were learning from was playing guitar. that is the skill she should have started to improve--she is at level 7.

the "listen and learn" option isn't even supposed to show, unless a Sim is already skilled enough. but even if it were, it should certainly not result in them learning a completely different skill.

had the inactive Sim been playing the piano, the only option the active Sim would have probably had available to them is "watch". unless they had previously acquired the skill and levelled up enough to be able to "listen and learn".

i'll try to test some more.

@unseenlarks did you get a chance to test this further ?

Going to mark this as fixed for now
