I see evidence of a reset prior but it busted MasterController because the dream system looks pretty hosed, which happens without Dreamer in place to hand hold it. Try dropping the dreams and promises and see what that does.

I'm going to try the drop dreams command and see what happens. My game has been behaving but I'll try that right now and see what happens.

Okay, I got the dreams and opportunities of 16 Sims dropped. Now can someone please explain to me why my Sims' dorm roommates are now part of the household? As in selectable and everything?????

Wait, so we have progress here? Good!

I've heard of the roommates becoming selectable thing happening but have never seen it first hand. They are supposed to appear on the portrait panel (the icons on the left side of the screen) by default, they should be clickable in the sense that you can focus the game camera on them, but you are saying that you can actually control them and they are active sims standing by waiting to be directed with player commands like any other household member? Weird.

You can make them non-selectable again with either MC or DE. NRaas > MC > Sim > Advanced > Selectability
(MC Cheats add-on module required)

But be sure to make an extra Save As before returning home and be prepared for your roommates to come home with you, in case that happens.

Now Dreamer is just spewing out script errors. I'm thinking about ditching this particular save and starting over. I don't know what else to do.

If it's still just Uni that is acting up in that way and not the homeworld, you could revert to a pre-travel save and just ditch Uni World -- that is, remove its nhd file from your game save or a copy of your game save so that a fresh version of the world will form on the next Uni trip. Note though that any sims yours knew on prior trips will no longer exist in that game (if they were still in Uni World that is) and the new instance of the world will contain all of the original Uni World sims that came with it the first time unless you TA them all and bring in fresh students.

Okay, I did a Total Annihilation (Completed Degree and Homeless Service. Don't know if there was anything else) and that seems to have worked. I'm not getting any script errors right now.
