One of my sims is now unable to stop working out on her own and she did not get the good workout moodlit as well. She would have worked out all day if I hadn't cancel the action by "x"ing it out. Tried to have her work out later in the day, same thing happened. Usually sims.hard_reset solves this issue when it happens, but the code (as previously posted) is not working. Have decided to give the game a break until the cheat codes that were broken from the update get fixed. Enjoy playing the sims 4 and I am looking forward to seasons, but seasons is going to be a mess if a simple reset code to fix easy glitches does not work. Sending the sims 4 gurus some luck, hope they can fix the cheat codes soon :)

Hello @MojoRat1
With the issue of your sims not able to stop working out, if you have cc/mods in your game, try moving your whole mods folder to the desktop. Then start the game and test to see if that helps the issues.
If the issues still remain, repairing the game may help. To do that, go to games library in Origin, right click on the sims 4 picture and click repair
Try deleting the localthumbcache.package file and see if that helps.
Try also resting with another sim to see if the same issue occurs with them,
Thanks for the response @rosemow, I don't use any cc or mods in my game. You probably don't remember this (and I in no way expect you to, you are doing a great job of trying to help a large amount of people) but I had posted in the patch notes bug thread as well about the skill cheats not working. I will try cleaning out the cache. I am slightly worried that repairing my game will delete everything I have done to prepare for seasons. I have put a lot of hours into getting my home and family ready, I don't want to loose it. Reset sims has always fixed minor random task issues.
At this point though two important cheats I use in my basic game play aren't working (the skill cheats and the reset cheat for minor random glitches), so I will wait for them to be fixed rather than get frustrated with it. Frustration is not fun or healthy.
Hope when it is stated that it is a known issue, that means someone on the sims 4 team is working on fixing it. Really enjoy playing the sims 4.

Repairing the game shouldn’t cause issues. If you are concerned though, you could make a backup copy of your saves folder beforehand, and then if issues occur you can use the backup copy.
@rosemow Thanks for the info that the repair option normally should not delete my game play. Good to know. I am wondering, is someone actually trying to fix the cheat codes bug right now? Or is it on a list of issues they have not gotten to yet? Not sure if you know, figured I would ask in case you do. :)

SimGuruGrant posted that they are working on an update to be released very soon
Are there any updates to anything being resolved because now I am noticing new problems. One common issue I am having is my sims seem to have frozen. Time moves, days go by, NPC's are going about their programmed way. But my entire household of sims will appear to have "clocked out" per say. Now it's at no given time or no given house. I've tried small to large families also tied creating a new household still happens various times. My daughter created a new entire world from mine, and her house did it also. Is that a known issue too? Its a few other things going on but codes still not working and included a madness of errors. Any help or info is accepted right now. I just want to play!!!

Hello
I am sorry that you are having these issues.
When it occurs, try pausing the game, waiting for a short while , then pressing back to normal speed again and see if that helps.
Go to game options and back, or pressing the M key then cancelling the travel screen can help
Try also resetting your sims 4 folder and see if that helps. To do that, move your sims 4 folder ( that is in Documents -Electronic Arts - then the sims 4 folder is there ) to the desktop. Then start the game, and a new sims 4 folder will be generated. Exit the game and then copy back the "options.ini" or " options " file and the "saves" , "screenshots" "tray" "custom music " and "mods" folders from the desktop sims 4 folder to the new sims 4 folder, replacing the new generated file/ folders with the old file/folders from the desktop sims 4 folder.
If your Documents folder ( which holds your sims 4 folder ) is on your external hard drive, this explains how to move your documents folder back . https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=iYfNmGnbxNw
Oh thank goodness. I'm not the only one having this issue! After I downloaded Seasons, prebought it and love it, I haven't been able to use the skill cheats. I don't know why.

I hope the gurus consider making the cheats usable by players again. Why would they want to limit us like that? I mean, what's it to them if we want to cheat our Sims to the top? What harm are we doing to other players or the developers by using those cheats?

Try starting a fresh new save game just to test to see if the testingcheats true cheat may work in that new save.

It is not recommended to run the game from an external hard drive. It can cause game issues. It is best to install the game on an inner hard drive.
