Hi there @rpop_sims,

 

The Polish to Perfection option is a new available option with the Bust the Dust kit. Any Sim will see this option available for all chess tables, even if they don't have the Neat trait, after a game of chess has been played and the chess table needs to be reset. 

 

If you have Bust the Dust disabled under your Pack Settings in your Game Settings, you won't see this option available when you select the chess tables.

I don't think this is a bug? In my experience, it's just a way to reset the chess pieces once a sim has moved them. At least that's just how I've always thought about it.

Isn‘t that an option neat sims have, who can polish a lot of things to perfection other sims don‘t deem dirty?

What expansions, game packs, and stuff packs do you have installed? Almost all, but not bust the dust.
Steps: How can we find the bug ourselves? Click a played chess board
What happens when the bug occurs? Previously you could clean it up, now it is 'polish to perfection' while sims are not polishing it at all, they are cleaning it up (setting the the pieces back)
What do you expect to see? Clean up option. Not polish to perfection.
Have you installed any customization with the game, e.g. Custom Content or Mods? Not now. I've removed them.
Did this issue appear after a specific patch or change you made to your system? Yes
Please describe the patch or change you made. The patch that came with bust the dust and updated the name of all cleaning actions.

Since the bust the dust update (not the kit), the cleaning interactions where renamed to cleaning to perfection. I honestly hated it. If something is dirty, you should clean it, but not to perfection per se.

 

One of the things about the update that annoys me the most is that they renamed 'cleaning up' on the chess board to 'polish to perfection'.

it just makes no sense, they are cleaning it up. Not polishing it. There is no polishing animation.

 

Therefore I consider this a bug. 

 

I have submitted a separate bug report for emptying the potty.clean up chess board.png

Note that if you don’t own Bust the Dust, everything is stuck on polish to perfection.
