Part of a massive structure has become mounted across a courtyard area in front of the Millennium Falcon. And yes, it is solid and cannot be walked through -_-

☼ I tried leaving the game and restarting the game. Structure remains where it was at last save game point.
☼ I also tried using the Mobile Phone and travel to another part of Batuu, and then back again. But that still didn't reset the world.
☼ I also tried a Repair Game option in Origin. Didn't work.
☼ I also tried a New Game with a new Sim and went on vacation. The world is permanently broken this way as if it is permanently saved that way and did not reset itself for a new Sim and a new game.
☼ I also tried returning my Sims home. Save the game. Resend the Sims to Batuu and it's still broken.
☼ I also tried the above and then went to Main Menu and created a new household and sent them to Batuu. Amazingly the world was reset. No problem. But I need to fix my main game. (This method worked because I sent my Sims home in the other save game).

No. I don't believe you can edit anything in Batuu.

I had similar issues with some furniture that got displaced from its place a few times, not sure what's causing this, but it's usually happening after saving.
Nice idea. And I was able to enable edit of the Cantina. But not the adjoining areas where these structures are found. When I pan out, there are now two or three of these same structures randomly scattered throughout this part of Batuu

Yes, the structure is massive and is only visible from afar, it's difficult to use on a lot because you cannot see it. After you enable the build mode on the cantina lot, go with the cursor over the structure, maybe you'll find a grab point, usually in it's center, so you can delete it.
I swear I didn't do it. I didn't even know I could edit the Cantina until you mentioned it.

Unfortunately the structure is way off the grid. Only a small part of it is overlapping the cantina Lot. And I cannot see a grab point

I had to resort to abandoning my Saved Game.
But I did preserve:
☼ My Lot by saving it in Build Mode
☼ My Household by saving it in MCCC Master Controller Command Center) Full CAS Edit Mode. Probably would have also worked in the cheat mode Full CAS Edit Mode too.
I starting a new game with my saved household and saved Lot.
☼ Weirdly enough, my progress for my Sim in Batuu was preserved with the household save
☼ But unfortunately I lost everything in my households inventory. And I mean everything. So all the stuff related to Batuu and any other inventory collected in the last five years is gone.
☼ But the Batuu world is restored (which was the aim of this whole solution).

Yeah, that may have worked, but what I don't know would be tie-ins within the game and the story/mission linking such a vital Lot. I don't want to sever links that are unseen in a User Interface of Build Mode and cause the game to falter because it hits a variable it can't account for.
Edit: Since I couldn't even grab the oversized base of the Cantina then deleting the Lot might not have taken that component with it. I really don't think it was attached to the Cantina since I was never in any edit mode for the issue to even occur in my game.
Editing or deleting a Lot like Ora's Cantina could break something important as an unseen data link (I can imagine it, so it's kinda possible).
But thank you for that idea / suggestion. However, I've worked a solution that was not invasive to the game structure.

Yeah, I thought I had a similar loss of a mission too (but not under the same circumstance of CAS mode edit).
Mine was in doing a Scoundrel's mission And I just did that mission and it was offered again and I accepted it. So I was annoyed for a moment thinking why am I being offered the same mission as if I never completed it before. But my conclusion is that it is offered because you have to keep earning Republic Credits; Scoundrel reputation in order to go up the rankings. So repeat missions is possible, regardless of progressive story lines.

So far, I have seen that the Hats category has some added EA content for those who bought the GP. About twenty (20) "Hats" have been added for Adults that effective give these alien masks. It's not a glitch as I imagine it.
But it is all down to how EA Maxis has tagged each Hat. Have these Hats been tagged as available for random Sims? Yes or no.
But as surely as a Sim can wear a hat, then surely they will put these hats on because it is classed as a Hat, regardless of the fact it appears to you and I to logically be a mask.
If I was EA Maxis, I wouldn't have tagged them as randomly available for NPC Townie Sims to wear. But that's just me. They might equally argue that it would add to the humor and random madness of The Sims™ game. And I have no criticism of that point, if presumably it is their point.

One of the townie mods is being reported as causing that, do you have any mods that effect townies in any way? I think the mod is called Townies Overhaul or something similar.
Apparantly certain MCC story and homeless settings can cause it also.
Sims team has like gone out of their way to adamantly reiterate that this doesn’t happen in the game? 😂 Who to believe?
But a Simmer can, and can upload a screenshot.
Did you report the bug at EA Answers HQ? I can't find any mention of this there.
Ctrl Shift C on your keyboard, then type

TestingCheats True
press Enter key, then type
Stats.Set_Skill_Level Major_Wellness 10
press Enter key
I heard that the Vampire & Spellcaster powers won't work in Batuu so I just played my human sim with her Wellness ability.
Yes it can, when not up to date.
Sea may rise, sky may fall, My love will never die..
My heart, my heart, My drowning heart, Oh all the tears I've cried
Oh I may weep forevermore, My love will never die..
Yes, nice idea. But at the time (when I had this issue) teleport still didn't solve the issue. And though the structure did not impede the actual entry into the Millennium Falcon, the game would not let me into the ship (as I wrote in the first comment, directly underneath the original post)
And in any case, it still would not have removed the structure from blocking all the other buildings around the entire area. So eventually there would be other problems later in the game.
