I've noticed that when I go to an apartment from which a sim has moved - say moved out to a house or joined another sim - that the sim is still hanging around the building but no longer has an apartment. The sim fusses about being hungry, needing the bathroom, and needing sleep. Meanwhile the real sim is residing elsewhere in the neighborhood. The copy that is left in the apartment is sort of a "ghost".

Does anyone know any fixes for this problem or workarounds?

I know this probably seems obvious, but I've read about this glitch before.

Do you have the Apartment Life patch installed?

Also, I found this. HERE about a guy with the same problem. Look down the page for the heading FIXED PROBLEM. Hope this helps.

Hi,

Thanks for the help. I'll try the bit about unlocking the doors - I also lock them for the reason the author of the fix gave. Nonetheless, I'm gradually de-apartmenting my game.

Thanks!

I hope that works for you Mac.
