As for the Edit in CAS cheat, it can reset a sim's age bar, or even subtract days from it. Since any fiddling with sim's ages is more-or-less banned in this dynasty, it's best to just flat-ban Edit in CAS. It's also easier to ban testingcheats entirely than to make exceptions for certain commands.

I haven't seen any official confirmation that it's fixed, but I myself haven't had the problem since installing the most recent patch. My best advice is to start a new file in a town with combined rabbitholes, have your sim(s) get jobs in them, and see for yourself. :)

EDIT: So I went on the patch 1.55 and apparently missed Rica's response to my own statement about combined rabbitholes being fixed in my game:

Edit:  Well - Joe MacDuff needs to go to a presidential debate and it's not an option.  Felicity MacDuff needs to do a ballet recital and can't.  Jules MacDuff was trying to work on some bridge and it's not there.

Still bugged.

So it's still pretty much bugged. :( However, that doesn't mean that the dynasty can't be completed in a town with combined rabbitholes. Rhoxi and Tiamet were able to do it. It's just more difficult.

So, I was hoping to add a plantsim baby to the household (have the room, will be pulled by a non-immortal/non-heir) so my scientist created the forbidden fruit seed. When I tried to plant the seed with my lvl 8 gardener, I couldn't get him to interact at all with it. My scientist has a greyed out 'plant here' option (he isn't a gardener). Anybody know what's going on? Thanks for the help!

I would suggest to try planting the seed again when your gardener is level 10. Also, how is he trying to interact with it (from a table or from personal inventory)?

I know not all dynasty players have Ambitions, but the consignment store in my town is bugged so no one in the family can buy or sell anything. They go up to the counter, talk to the consignment specialist and then the action is dropped and nothing happens. Do I have permission to go to edit town and replace it or do I need to wait until then next generation is ready to buy their property?

Have you tried clearing all consignments?

I don't know what you mean by that or how you would do it. Sorry.

You go up to the consignment store register, click on it, and select "Cancel Consignments" (or similar). :) No worries.

They have never managed to consign anything so that option isn't available. It hasn't been a problem until now, because my heir is 13 days from elder and no where near maxing the angler career.

No one has ever put anything up for consignment? Yikes, that's an awful bug!

What about resetting the consignment specialist?

If you have the funds, and enough unique properties for the future, I don't see why you couldn't purchase the store and replace the register now. Maybe even just in a test file to see if it solves the problem, if the challenge team is okay with that

I don't think it is the consignment specialist that's the bug because we are now on the third consignment specialist.

They have enough funds, but the current generation has already purchased her property. I will wait for the challenge teams permission and suggestions.

I meant just purchase it as an additional property that doesn't count for reqs in order to do the bug fix :) but absolutely, I'm sure the challenge team will have better ideas

Have you considered going into one of the properties you have purchased and putting down a consignment store register there?

That's actually a really good idea! I hope that's ok with the challenge team. I don't see why it wouldn't be!
