I've noticed that often there are other tweaks and tuning done that's not mentioned in the patch notes so it's possible we got some of that too. Maybe there's some content prep in there as well for the refresh.
Either way, any patch we get for a Sims game with this much content is hardly simplistic. Hopefully we'll get another patch with more bug fixes soon.
Gosh, I wish they’d finally get that bug fixed for gardening. I don’t worry about updating mods or anything, cause I don’t use them, but I haven’t played in the last couple of weeks cause of my plants reverting to dirt piles in the greenhouse. Even then, I was making more community lots so I haven’t really played in HoB yet. I don’t remember having the stairs problem, but the garden reverting to dirt piles has been very off putting.
apparantly there is something relating to the critters in OR in the patch code, so there is definately more to this patch than just the bug fix and the artwork.

Maybe this patch is like our pond ducklings.... all calm and serene on the surface (what we see) but lots of busy paddling happening under the surface (what we don't see).

(PS4 Simmer( a 5GB update for a painting and one bug fix.
My first attempt at playing cottage living was aborted because the chicken coop was bugged and made it unplayable. My second save was deleted due my teenager not aging up when they should (not even reloading the game or using the birthday candles on a cake worked), I've noticed that plants out in the street would revert back to dirt piles....
And still no UI scaling for console, bugs are everywhere, and the update is just... a painting, one listed bug fix and something in the code about insects....Welp, here's hoping the bugs don't take a year to fix like Vampires did,
In all seriousness I wish we had more than one bug fix for sure but I am glad they addressed this one. It was a bit jarring when it would happen. Hopefully September is huge and fixes some of the more serious issues.
This bug was making the game extremely frustrating for me to play. I had to follow everyone around the house and that was too much! I’m so glad it’s fixed.
Well I guess the stair bug is fixed. But I'm not sitting through a half hour update just for that.
Normally when I update, it takes ages and goes through every extra pack that I have...this one did not. It just went through and updated the base game and was relatively quick.
All the same, slow internet + slow computer = despair

I think this is going to give people hope for an almighty September patch, and if it isn't, EA might be hiding under the stairs they've just fixed

Another thing is that after the update the floor gets dusty twice a DAY!
WHAT!?
I just updated and I swear to you EA, I will drive down there and bop you all on the snoot!
Edit: Make that 30 minutes dear gosh
