ok! i'm sorry, i forgot about that. too tired!
"call over" was greyed out for the... i think 3 Sims i clicked on before writing about the "bug". that was at Creekside Smooth at Willow Creek. so i took more Sims to different venues and started clicking on basically every other Sim (not just 3, which i guess was too few) i saw walk by the lot.
i think the "problem" is that whoever they want to talk to needs to have spawned to walk into that same venue. "call over" works if the second Sim is already approaching, so they will walk over to the first one. if they have spawned just to walk by, the option will be greyed out, and the first Sim will have to run out to meet them.
i don't know. i still don't understand why i'm getting the "needs to be invited in first" bit--that is not an option when at community lots. it could simply say "this Sim is too far away to call over" like some other times.

For me it says their too far away to call over on most that aren't in front of the venue
Do you know if it was ever different ?

exactly. that's what i was wondering in my previous post, it could simply say "this Sim is too far away to call over". because that's how it used to be.

That's how it's still for me so I'm I don't know what's happening in your game.
Do you ever get the too far away message ? Did you also try a fresh save for testing purposes ?
- unseenlarks8 years agoSeasoned Ace
yes to both. "too far away to call over" is still present.
i've tried clicking on all Sims that walk past a venue, and most of them "need to be invited in", though. the "too far away to call over" ones are as far away or as close as the "need to be invited in" ones. but i've noticed this last option happens slightly more often when the clicked-on Sim is closer to the venue. it happens in current and new saves.

Going to add this to the inconclusive list for now to see if others have the same issue.

thank you.

I'm having the same issue. I'm at a Karaoke bar and none of the sims will enter. When I go to call them over it's greyed out and says that they need to be invited in first. I play without mods or custom content.

would you be willing to share your save game when in that state ?
- unseenlarks8 years agoSeasoned Acei've also seen this happen when clicking on a Sim who is still at the same venue, but already leaving/walking towards the door. the only options available are "call over" (greyed out; hovering over it shows "this Sim needs to be invited in first"), "add to group" and "form group..."
if you "add them to group", hovering over the options to "call over" and "call over group" don't show "Sim is already leaving" but "this Sim needs to be invited in first".
