Hey y'all, just a heads up about an issue that might affect your gameplay. A couple of times now I have saved and exited the game while one or more of my teens was at work. When I started up again, the game automatically brought them home early which hurts their work performance.

I would like to keep on with my current save cause I don't think it's going to affect my score much, and honestly don't want to play through the whole child/toddler phases again 😁 But just something to be aware of for other players.

@techiechick

If there's a club being convened while a sim is at school/work and we either go into CAS or save/exit.  That sim at school/work will be auto-returned home.
This also recently happened to me when I turned the club back on at Desert Bloom Park then traveled into the Forgotten Grotto.
The game has been like this for as long as clubs have been out.
At first, I didn't realize that clubs were the culprit and always waited for sims to come home from work to give the younger sims their make-overs. ;D

Ohhh that makes so much more sense! I've never had it happen before, and thought it was a new bug that had come in with the latest update or something. Thanks for the explanation.

It's a bit of an annoying game feature but probably working "as intended." *rolls eyes

I'm done but I don't know how to score this.  What do I need to PM to you so that I don't mess up @Metropolis Man ?
I'll do it on Sunday.

Download a copy of the spreadsheet and you should be good to go. Then post each leaderboard column score here in this thread.

Your scoring multiplier was only 1.00?
