Steps to Reproduce: Convince a zoi to move in with you
I noticed sometimes when you ask a ZOI to move in the ZOI you ask to move in their needs don’t decrease overtime, but other ZOIs’ needs do decrease overtime. Below is a video of the bug. P.S. this happens with or without mods installed.

I’ve had various zois move in lately, in different worlds but only in old save files. Haven’t experienced your issue. I’ll take a look at your save file in my setup now to check if the bug is also happening for me. I’ll report back once I’m done.

Appreciate you bro, again as I stated in my initial report, this happens with or without mods installed.

Hey there. I checked your save files. In the following screenshot, the marked file is the only one that contains a save:
Unfortunately, your Zoi is still a pre-teen in this save file so I can’t reproduce the bug with it since they’re too young to have someone move in. If you have a more recent one, feel free to upload it too

Don’t have that save anymore.

Unfortunately, then I won’t be able to test it myself. Really sorry for that. Like I said, I haven’t noticed your bug in any of my save files even though I use the “move in” interaction very frequently.
Have you tried verifying your files via Steam yet? It can be a huge help with such bugs as we’ve learned the hard way here xD In case you haven’t done this before, here is a short tutorial: How to verify your game viles via steam

Will give it a shot, and will see if that fixed the issue.

Hi! I don’t know if the verifying worked for you but I wanted to add that I think I managed to fix it by buying one of the slow deplete doughnuts (I did the food one) on the affected zoi. The doughnut does its job, but it also kickstarted the other needs. Just like you, it was a zoi I had invited to live with my original zoi that had this issue.

Ah, that’s interesting! I also thought maybe by trying to temporarly enable the needs cheats could help to - kind of - reset the needs and make them work normal again.

Needs not decreasing? LUCKY BARSTARDS! I wish I had that. I mean, I just almost crapped myself reading just another thread, then another, then another…

If you’re not opposed to cheats:
I enabled these cheats since they got implemented.
I have big households and play with 96 minutes, 4 hour and 24 hour days, the buggy needs are too much of a hassle when I just want to play the game and not constantly worry about their bars -.-

@Midnette Hopefully they fix this.

Idk if this will help but hopefully it will help to understand this bug.
Beings that I haven’t started a world to play in yet, I always use FreezeAllNeeds, but sometimes some needs still deplete, but I haven’t noticed it on the first character of the household yet.
