Maxis has prepared more than 150 fixes for The Sims 4 after reviewing feedback.

The developers of the life simulation game said a large update is coming soon. It will focus on food, meals and drinks. Maxis fixed more than 150 bugs and also prepared a range of improvements.

According to the developers, they fixed an issue that caused infinite loading under certain conditions. They also repaired the save system, among other things:

We fixed the infinite loading issue when placing lots, eliminated white screens when loading saves with rental housing, restored the ability to order food and drinks when bartenders are busy with something else, and Sims will also freeze less.

The “Open” action for refrigerators has moved to the front of the radial menu.

Some of the changes and improvements:

Fixed the cause of the infinite loading issue when placing lots, which was tied to excessive use of the code for moving objects.
Players can turn muscle and weight changes on or off for the entire save at once. They can also turn them on or off for each Sim individually through the action wheel.
The developers adjusted the prices and calorie counts of all dishes and drinks from the base game and add-on content.
Sims will no longer put plates in inappropriate places, such as display cases.
Fixed a bug where the babies that Sims were reborn as did not appear in the selected households or in Create a Sim for editing. The rebirth process should now finish without problems. (Life & Death DLC)
Fixed a bug that could cause Sims to freeze while planning a route.

The next update for The Sims 4 is due on October 27.
