My Interior Decorator Sim chose his own house as a client, now I can't use build mode when he's home. It's greyed out and telling me to "send the client away" like he's on a job, but he's not. How do fix this?

I had to move my sims off the lot and then bulldoze the lot. Then move my sims onto that empty lot and place the house again to get the option back. I hope there’s another fix cuz it was a lot.

I ended up doing the same thing. I tried moving just the Decorator Sim from the house (split household) and that didn't work. I moved all of them out to another lot, and then back in. That did the trick. It only happened after I chose his own home as a client. His wife is part of the main Sim family and I didn't realize that the name I was choosing was his home and not her family member. It hasn't happened again since I have been careful not to choose his own house.

@MammaLlamma4 That you can choose your own household as a client sounds like a bug.

You might wanna make a bug report in the bug forum for that.

[MammaLlamma4]

I'm not sure how to do that (report as a bug), but I can tell you, even after I did all of the above (moved households, etc.) I still had the option of choosing the house that Sim lived in. I have another household and made one of the SIms an Interior Decorator. So far, she hasn't had the option of choosing her own house. I appreciate the reply! I will report back on this thread if it happens with the other Sim or if the current Sim suddenly gets the option again.

@amxthystcrystxl So your Sim Decorator Sim got offered a job in their own home ? Don't think that should happen but since you're using mods/cc maybe one of them enabled that ?

Can you quit the career and re-enter ?

[amxthystcrystxl]

The only mods I have installed is the Slice of Life and MCCC, I've had them for a long time, all updated and I've never had an issue. I've seen another thread on here with someone with the same issue. But they had to bulldoze the lot to fix it. I wasn't properly paying attention to the gig, until I realised the issue. The sim did quit and renter the job and I still can't access build/buy mode in live mode. She now works in the media. I've currently repaired the game, but just got back into the game and it's still not fixed.

@amxthystcrystxl What happens if you try to enter ? Endless loading or an error ?

[amxthystcrystxl]

Renter the interior decorator job? I can select other gigs and works fine, but I still can't enter build/buy in live mode for my Sims. The message pop up for Harvest Fest just came out, can't click on the 'show the holiday object's'? button either. Only can enter build/buy mode through manage worlds. So for some reason, for no reason, my household sim was asking for a gig from a referral. Why is my household sim asking for a gig in the same household, doesn't make sense.
