No coworkers at work

chidoriaida

This is the first time I went to work with a science career sim after the December update/installing Get Together, shockingly the facility is EMPTY! There are no coworkers anywhere to be found. Is anyone else having the same problem? I cannot finish my goals as some of them require interaction with the coworkers.

Do you have any mods in? Sounds like a possible conflict... here's a list of what's broken/working since the December patches...

No, I don't have any mods or cc.

It's not like they do their jobs anyways.

I know, but my sim feels very lonely at work. Those slackers.

Hello.
Try seeing if the co workers have returned when your sim goes back to work the next day.

If the issue still remains then, repairing the game may help. To do that, right click on the sims 4 picture in Origin and click repair.

Try 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 add back the "options.ini" 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.

Alright, so I repaired the game from right clicking on Origin, no luck. Reset the game using rosemow's method, still no luck.

Wife and husband are both in the science career. I sent the wife back to work the next day, no coworkers, but aliens have infilrated the facility. So I made the husband go to work the next day instead, still no coworkers... It's driving me crazy!

Try having your sims quit their job, then have them rejoin the career and see if that may help the issue.

I had that problem, there was one co-worker who came in late (first or second day), but no one else. The rest arrived few days later. I would just keep on playing and see if they show up At least some of my co-workers are aliens though, don't know if that matters.

chidoriaida

Thanks @rosemow. I will try quitting the job later.

@luimistelija - The aliens that showed up in the facility are visitors only. Hopefully my coworkers will show up soon...

Maybe your co workers were culled and the game is stuck and unable generating sims.
Try creating few townies yourself and see if the game assigns them the jobs

I had this, it was because of a culling and I didn't have to do anything like quitting the job, all I had to do was wait until the game assigned some co-workers.

OP your problem started after installing Get Together. This means your population has reached the cap limit because Get Together added more premade sims that are in houses, while your co workers were probably homeless townies. So the game has culled/deleted them.

You need to create more sims if you want co workers in your game immediately or wait for the game to generate sims after few sim days.

The best option here is to use a no culling mod so that culling wont spoil your game. The no culling mod is a very important mod needed o avoid these kind of mess ups

If you have a husband and wife, you can switch back to the wife and then re-join the husband at work -- I've had the game produce new co-workers that way.

Several months ago my detective showed up to work and there were no prisoners. I think it was due to culling also. It was normal when she went back though. I always make sure I have 3 to 4 saves for a game that I rotate through in case something goes wrong.

rosemow

I hope that your co-workers appear for you soon. Try keeping going back to work each day and seeing if they will start to be generated again for you.
