Ambitions: What's borked
GoddessByline:
There seems to be a bug in action regarding certain professions and the inventory and the family inventory, causing items to get permanently stuck and unusable.
We are so far two players who are in the Architectural Design career, that have gotten stuff stuck in our family inventories.
We have even recreated our sims and started a new vanilla hood to make sure it isn't a cc conflict, but the bug keeps reappering.
As far as we've been able to determine, it happens when our sims perform a renovation as our profession. When the game automaticly goes into buy/build mode, all stuff in our regulare inventory gets transferred to the family inventory under buy mode. Once the renovation is over, the stuff gets transferred back to the regulare inventory, and this is were the bug happens. Some things get stuck in the family inventory, and becomes unusable. You cannot highlight it, or move it, and all attmepts to reset it like playing a few days, or have your sims do different things, like taking a vacation, will not unstick it.
There's alo another player in the (I think) Inventor profession, who was going through the junk at the junkyard and found a "globe sculpture". It went into her personal inventory and not into the family inventory and there it became stuck the same way as the items did for us in the family inventory.
Anyway, Leigh and I am at our witts end, and we have tried "everything", at least everything we can think of, so now we have to turn to the community with this and hopefully someone can make a fix for it.
Edit to add: I don't know if this is a valid observation or not, because we don't have all that much data to go on yet, but it seems like more "regulare" inventory items don't get stuck, instead it's things like laptops, scooters, bikes, electric guitars and things that aren't the more common inventory items.

Speaking of which, there appears to be no possible way of removing Portfolios when no longer needed. My sim quit the Archetectural Design career within minutes, but is stuck with that portfolio for the rest of eternity.
Claeric:
stuck family inventory can be remedied by moving the sim out and back in.

Actually no, it can't, not in this case at least.
This bug uses super-glue.

Autofollow on high speed is randomly stopped mid-trip. I've only seen it doing this after loading ambitions. It is the only thing I've noticed wrong so far.
Haven't noticed that yet. I always go to high when my firefighter responds to an emergency, and it follows them all the way, so far.
My computer might be the issue there. I have to run the game at minimum graphics and while the view will occasionally follow my sim all the way to the location, it seems like it would much rather abandon the idea halfway through.
