Sims can’t clean dishes
Update Bug 1 was partially fixed in Patch 1.63.133 but Sims just put dishes on half-walls. If dishes are already in unreachable spaced, you need to manually remove them. To my knowledge they should no longer put them in unreachable spaces afterwards. A new issue has emerged if the house only has ladders. Sims can’t carry stuff up and down ladders and sind they like to use the sink on a different floor that can lead to issues. Problem My Sims is supposed to clean up the table and do the dishes but after taking the dishes, he puts them back…

The action often gets canceled…

Household Sims on different lots don’t take care of their needs
Update Both issues have been address in Patch 1.52.100 but they seems to still occur. Problem Sims in my household that are currently on a different lot, don’t attend to their needs although the Care for Self option is activated. The needs of my toddlers which I sent to daycare are all in the red and no one seems to take care of them. Cause It seems like the game doesn’t register the option to take care of self properly if you don’t explicitly choose it. The hunger need does seem to go up if you wait long enough though. Solution…
