Folding Umbrella deletes item instead of storing in inventory.

  • Game Version: 20250911.7339.M

  • Platform: Steam Mac

  • Mods: (Choose one: never used / removed / active): Just Canvas clothes

  • Hardware Specifications & Operating System (OS version, CPU, GPU, RAM, storage…): Sequoia 15.6.1, M3 Ultra, 60-Core GPU, 96GB RAM, 1TB

  • Steps to Reproduce: Fold Umbrella when in use.

  • Details:
    If you select Fold Umbrella, it will just delete the item instead of storing it in Zoi’s inventory. If you do actions, like weeding, it will store it in your bag, so it seems intended to be a multi use item. Happens with new Zoi save as well, confirmed still happens after today’s hotfix.

I have noticed this too. Umbrellas used to remain in the zoi’s inventory, but now if you direct them to put it away, it vanishes.

Yeah, same. It makes using umbrellas almost useless.

In the meantime, there is a mod on CurseForge that adds better umbrella control functionality. Previously, the mod caused some issues with Zoi interaction (Zois would always refuse social interaction), but this was remedied in the latest official hotfix, and the mod was updated, so it should be alright now.

Alternatively, you can have Zoi change into their raincoats when it’s raining. Click your Zoi, Change Clothing, and then select the Raincoat option. Unsure if this prevents colds, but it just makes more sense visually, regardless.

    • **Steps to Reproduce: **
      Grab an umbrella before heading on a “Want to meet-up” rendez-vous with a zoi
      It will disappear after the event ends.

My zoi got invited by another who asked to meet-up (usually leading to romantic involvement). :smiling_face_with_three_hearts:


.

Since I thought he was kinda cute, I accepted the meet-up.
Since it was raining crazy, I grabbed a “Rainbow Umbrella” from the “Umbrella Stand” in my house then went to the park.
We had a nice meet-up, pestered by 2-3 other ladies who decided to act as chaperons, but whatever…
Then, my Umbrella disappeared when the event ended ! Like Cinderella’s dress !!! :face_with_spiral_eyes:
.

It did not go into my bag either. :face_with_symbols_on_mouth:


.

Since it was still raining cats and dogs, I had to walk all the way back home in the pouring rain ! :cloud_with_rain:


.

Please fix this, thank you !

Thanks for addressing this issue !
