Children disappearing

Broncos4life

I had a child look for discarded toys in a green garbage can in front of Optimist's Lookout in Newcrest. He found a voidcritters booster pack, but disappeared after that! He was still able to perform tasks such as train his voidcritter card and eat. I turned cheats on, and then shift-clicked under the plumbob and the only option was "teleport here". Is this a bug with the new patch, because I've had kids look in trashcans for toys without a problem?

Have him take a shower or go swimming or anything else that makes him change his clothing and he'll be fine again.

It's a known issue.

Someone posted that even zooming in really close makes the child visible again as well.

Hello
I am sorry that you are having this issue also. It would be good to press " me too" on the AHQ EA thread that crinrict posted.
Having a shower makes the sim appear again.
