A new BUG found "Come and get it street store"

PrincessVeePrincessVee Posts: 1,787 Member
So, I made a sim. She's a farmer and she makes her living selling vegetables and fruits.
However, when I try to sell them using the table that came with CL, the produce that she sells does not disappear from her inventory.
She can make a fortune selling the same apple over and over again. I actually tested it. I put exactly 1 apple on the "come and get it street store" and started a street sale. About 5 sims came up and bought THE ONLY APPLE IN THE INVENTORY. My sim got payed 5 times for the same apple and the apple stayed in the inventory nevertheless.

Now I feel that my sim is a fraud, but it's so not like her. She's good and she would never be tricking other sims like that.

Update 12/1/2016 It only happens when my sims sells stuff in the streets.
If she starts a yard sale, her produce disappears as supposed to.

@SimStaffBethelle could you please move this to bugs section?

    You should put a fish and loaf of bread on the table and change the sims name to Jesus. (Runs off to do just that...)

    This just goes to the heart of The Sims 4. I don't think developers get us at all. It's not about kaching money in succession, we can do that sort of game in PlayFirst or PopCap games, it's about the doing. The Sim needing more wares on the table and actually running out of stock. Even if this is a bug it should make people upset because most paid $40 for this EP when they can get it for half, bugs and all.

    Who says the Sims 4 don't have magic. They need to make the song Money for Nothing in Simlish for City Living. LOL.

    We'll investigate this, thanks for the report @PrincessVee. Were you using any cheats that could've potentially affected this? Thanks again!

    No! I made sure to test it in a cheat and mod free save. Thank you for investigating!

    @SimGuruNick I just went into the game to test it again. What I did:
    - put the table in my inventory
    - went onto a side walk, clicked on the table and chose "place in world"
    - stoked the table with a collectible Jenny doll and sold her. She disappeared from my inventory.
    - next I stoked my table with one mushroom. A couple of sims came up and bought it, and it still stayed in the tables inventory.

    So it seems to be affecting only harvestables.

    I am having this issue. It doesn't matter if it is a street or yard sale, the produce does not disappear. Fish and build/buy items do disappear. :|

    Hello @Kandyce
    If you have cc/mods in your game, move your mods folder to the desktop. Then start the game and see if the issues are still there. If it has helped with the issues, put your mods/ CC back into the newly generated mods folder that is in the sims 4 folder one by one or in batches and testing after each one to see which is the causes of the problem.

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

    It's not a cc or mod problem. It's a bug that is still not solved. I can confirm it because I also experience it in my game.

    Hello
    I am sorry that you are continuing to have it occur in your game :(

    The produce has always been like that from the time the sales tables came out in CL. Although there is a limit on produce for how many fish you can catch with one, or how many plants you can fertilize with one, there is no limit on how many times it will sell. It never does disappear. As long as everything else disappears when sold, your sales table is working fine.

    I really think there should be a cap on it as you can never get rid of excess produce by selling it this way.

    Hello
    I don't think that there is a thread on the AHQ EA site about the issue
    You may like to start one on the site
