Which language are you playing the game in? English
How often does the bug occur? Occasionally (10% - 49%)
What is your current game version number? 1.90
What expansions, game packs, and stuff packs do you have installed? About half of all
Steps: How can we find the bug ourselves? When in game if you pull up needs you’ll see that hunger depletes very fast. Also, needs that are supposed to be yellow or red are green. Sim can die within half of one sim day or overnight because of starvation, even after a full hunger bar not long ago.
What happens when the bug occurs? Sims die of starvation way too fast. Hunger depletes way too fast.
What do you expect to see? Sims not dying of hunger within one day or overnight even with a previously full hunger bar.
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? Neutral/Not Sure

This is an image of the glitch, I don’t have a video showing hunger depleting but it’s extremely low.

EDIT by Crinrict: Merged another thread with 8 me toos

This has happened 3 times now since the update. I have also seen on twitter this is happening to other users too.

@beckytaylor100 I merged your post with another report.

Did you delete the localthumbcache file after removing mods ? Did you disable them or move the folder to the desktop ?

[beckytaylor100]

Yes i deleted the file after removing them. I disabled them first and then I've moved the folder to desktop.

having the same issue, currently playing a scenario and one of my household sims keeps disappearing, when I checked their profile, they died of starvation, even in sleep. the hunger bar stays green. don't know why this keeps happening, and yes I have removed cc from the mods folder onto the desktop and disabled cc content in-game, but clearly, this issue is happening due to the new game patch update.

What do you expect to see? My sims food need to stop going from being full to dying of starvation in a matter of seconds

Since purchasing the new high school expansion pack I have had two sims die of starvation om day two of waking up even though the food bar had been full it goes to zero as soon as the sim wakes up causing my sim to die of starvation which is extremely annoying as I don't know how to stop it from happening. Not sure if anyone else has experienced this but I have no idea what to do so they don't keep dying

@Tinkerbella009 I merged your post with the main thread on this.

Have you tested this without mods/cc ? best to try on a backup before the died. Removing the mods won't make them alive again.

With the new high school years update I have had multiple deaths due to hunger but their hunger bar is at 100%. My children younger then teens kept getting taken due to neglect even though their needs are perfectly fine and I don’t even get a notification before they are taken it just happens. So is this a bug from the new update or is my game just broken? And I the only one that is having this problem?
