Invited Sim leaves as soon as they show up

jorann:
Apologies in advance if this has already been answered, but I couldn't find anything on it..

Been running into an issue where sim #1 calls sim #2 to invite them over.  When sim #2 shows up at the apartment, the door opens, and then they immediately turn around and leave.  Is this normal or anyone else seen this happen? It makes it a bit frustrating to play when you can't invite anyone over! 

If this isn't normal behavior, I am guessing it has something to do with custom content - I dont have any hacks installed (at least not that I am aware of).  Is there a simple way to figure out what the problem is?

edinfresno:
Did you check what time it was before Sim 1 called Sim 2? If it's too late then Sim 2 will turn around and leave just after arriving. A simple fix to this is to open a cheat box (CTRL+SHFT+C) and type in sethour then type in the time you want (20 would be eight p.m.). have Sim 1 call Sim 2 and invite them over again. Sim 2 should stay this time.

XPTL297:
In a game without hacks, you are running the game globals and if you invite a child or teen, children has only permission to stay out up to 6pm (18) and teens to 9pm (21), Adults can stay up to 1am. To invite to stay over the night, you have to make the invitation before 6pm (18) or there won't be even a menu for invitation. If you don't have hacks and have a conflict anyway, check your ccs (clothing, hairs, etc) with Clean Install or any tool you may have to check the files integrity. Mesh or texture problems CAN cause other problems that are not even related.

jorann:
I don't think timing is the issue.  Both sims are adults and the invite was in the middle of the afternoon (neither have jobs as both are sims I created and didn't get around to finding them work yet).  I'll check with clean installer for the CC, but other than using it to load content, I haven't used it for anything else so not sure what I am looking for.

XPTL297:
Orphan files. And you can also check if you didn't download any lot or family that could eventually bring some unwanted hacks or mods with it. Problems of this kind are normally caused by hacks related to the visitor generator.
