Bugs in WA
Slymenstra:
I am beginning to have huge problems taking my Sims on vacation. My only hacks are Awesome and Twallan's Super Computer. I have a family of 5, 2 adults, 2 teens and 1 child. They went to China everything was great. When they came home all of the cooking books had disappeared from the inventory.
I kept playing the family and decided to send them to China again. This time it was just the 2 Adult parents and 1 teen (who was the child at first) Everything was fine in China until I noticed their vacation time did not count down. It remained 0/5 the whole time until I decided to make them leave. When they got home the teen was totally gone from the household, the father's icon just green and I could not control him. The mother acted like she had never left and the household money was how it was when I left. I noticed through using the Super Computer and Awesome mod that I had the REAL family as homeless townies. Their money was also what they had made in China.
Looking at the mother's family tree I saw that all of her children were aged down to child and 2 teens. And the child was darkened like she was a foreigner from China in the relationship panel. However the real teen (who went to China) showed as currently out of town on the Super Computer.
I tried summoning the real family and they never came. I tried resetting them, resetting the world...nothing worked.
So I went back to an older save and just sent the Father to China. While he was there his vacation timer never expired and in the relationship panel his children were aged down. When he returned home, everyone was like they should be. No duplicates.
What a mess. I do not fiddle with odd cheats or anything like that. I have no idea how they got so borked.

Disappearing inventory objects is part of an issue that may have recently been fixed in AwesomeMod. Or you could be experiencing an all-new issue. Hard to tell. Anytime you're considering sending someone on a vacation, it is STRONGLY ADVISED to SAVE A BACKUP COPY FIRST.

Sounds like your neighborhood unravelled into a BFBVFS.

Do those lots have transporters on them? My sims have developed an unhealthy obsession with repairing the stupid things. I had two sims die that way. They might have had one handy skill point each. Now I have been obsessively calling the repair folk to make sure the things are not broken. It seems any random sim in the family will suddenly decide they are so handy they can fix the transporter. And even if you stop them, they will keep trying to return to it until they get shocked multiple times.
No, I've never purchased a transporter ever. The one sim that died was a technophobe, I do not think she would attempt to repair anything, even if she broke it. There is a computer on her lot as she is an author though. I did not realize you could die from electrocution. I think I've only seen once or twice a sim get electrocuted by fixing something. And all it seemed to do was give the "singed" moodlet. I've been on vacation and had a sim get electrocuted by a trap multiple times without dying. Perhaps the traps are less deadly than common household appliances?

I'm getting the food spoilage bug - anything my sims cook and store for leftovers spoils within 24 hours.
I was getting that with the low-end refrigerator. Once I replaced it with a better model, the bug stopped.
I'm getting this even with the most expensive refrigerator. Replacing it works for as long as I play, until I save, quit, and come back. At that time if I don't replace the refrigerator again, all of my leftovers spoil within 12 hours. And this is with the base game and latest patch, no WA.
Replacing the refrigerator first thing when I load my game is an easy workaround, but it's costing my Sims money.

That is interesting. Gives me a hint on where to look for it, although I am not in a position to test this, being that my sims eat raw meat.
