Relationship & Telemetry Hook Error Fix (UCFSIFBA)

This mod fixes an error that occurs upon the loading of a household in an save affected save, in which the game attempts to update family dynamic information. In saves with this error, loading any household causes the problem.

What Does This Mod Fix?

This mod addresses the following error, which can be referenced on AHQ here. The error will appear as follows, if you use MCCC:

Last Module Called: relationship_data.py

Last Function Called: _update_client_for_sim_info_for_bit_add

Error message: [manus] sim_info_manager failed to handle on_all_households_and_sim_infos_loaded due to exception (AttributeError: 'NoneType' object has no attribute 'sim_id'), CategoryID: relationship_data:232

How Does the Mod Work?

At the moment, it is unclear what is causing the issue, but essentially the game is attempting to add relationship "bits" (parts of the code that identify a relationship between two Sims, e.g. a friend, a sibling, a parent, but even something such as a keyholder for an apartment) between two Sims. The catch is that for at the moment unclear reasons, at least one of these Sims no longer exists, which is causing the exception.

My mod simply prevents the code from running if one of the Sims doesn't exist, thus preventing the error.

It will be on EA themselves to investigate why this is happening and how these Sims that no longer exist are being attempted to have a relationship bit added to them by the game.

At the moment, these relationship bits appear to be all family dynamic related, but I suspect that this is simply because the game is attempting to update every Sim in the game to have these new dynamics rather than the dynamics being broken outright themselves.
