  • Details:
    I’ve posted this before about a month or more ago and the issue is still occurring. The “low needs gauge” warning pops up every 5 to 10 minutes even though my Zoi’s needs are full. This began before the latest update and continues to happen even when I started a new game just to see if that would help. I’ve read a post where one other person has experienced the same thing but, like my post, the issue was never addressed by the dev team.

  • The screenshot above is another warning that popped up about 5 minutes after the other one did. I used the “setneedsfull” cheat to set all of my Zoi’s needs full and about a minute or two later I got the warning that her needs are severely low even though they clearly aren’t. While it doesn’t stop me from playing, it’s a bit annoying to constantly have this popup among all the other constant popups we have in the game and having to close them just to continue playing.

  • I understand (and have been told numerous times) that the Dev team doesn’t prioritize Mac players at this time. But I hope that someone could PLEASE address this at some point.

Same thing here… this pop up notifications keeps showing up even though there’s no low needs, it may only seem to be a bug related to mac players alone. I will soon include my save file in this thread so that the devs can look unto it.

Are there any updates from the dev team about this issue?

Game Version: Mac Steam : 20260915.15330.M

Just to add to this. I’ve played this save on my PC for the past few hours and this pop up does not occur so I can agree that it appears to be a Mac issue. For me it started within the first few in game hours, when my zois needs started to go down and then wouldn’t stop even though their needs were fine. I noticed the game time was on default and I normally play on 96 mins, I once I changed that, I didn’t get a pop up anymore. Possibly could be affecting certain time settings. I’m not sure, hope this helps. I don’t think a specific save is the issue.
