Re: [FIXED] Puddles after drinking water

@RavenLure Do you have any ghosts that drowned ? They leave puddles too.

Since you are a mod user, it's easy to test if it's this issue or something else. Just install Scarlet's mod fix (you can find the link if check this list: https://answers.ea.com/t5/Bug-Reports/INFORMATION-Common-Game-Fixing-Mods-Hero-Approved/td-p/9836185

If it helps, it's the same, if not, it's different.

No ghosts that drowned. That come by my place,,., no ghosts.... unless I summon Felix with paranormal but he did not drown... 

A mod, that fixes mods?? I looked through the list of compatible mods for that and I have non of the mods listed.

I try to keep mods at a minimum

I just noticed this happening a few minutes ago. 

I was playing a residence in Komorebi.  Only the second time since building this house. A single sim autonomously ate breakfast, washed his plate then got a glass of water. He put it on the table (Toasty Kotatsu table), then sat down and drank it. A puddle appeared behind him on the floor. 

My other lots are usually busy with kids and multiple adults, but this is the only sim here. 

In my current house my sims are constantly unwell because of dirty surroundings and I couldn't find anything dirty. And yes I noticed the puddles of water next to the sink and thought it was the dog - wait, the weather was nice and the dog didn't swim in the pool... anyway I am starting to have this isuse now after moving to a certain house a few days ago, but long after the recent update.

So, some days on since I posted in this thread and things have become worse!  My sims go to their acting gigs and want to immediately go to the sink to get water.  I also see NPCs getting water there too.  Now I have to go into build mode, remove all 3 sinks from PBP so that my sims will not keep queueing up actions to go to the sink whilst in the middle of a performance!  I have no puddles issue now, just the desperation of my sims to go to the sinks for a glass of water.  I thought I'd fixed all this with MCCC but no, they still desperately want sinks and drinks!  They're not thirsty, all bars are green.  I noticed an update came a few hours ago and still the problem persists.  I was really hopeful that it was a fix.  ☹️

@RavenLure Let's do it this way: Make a new thread once they fix this and you're still having issues. For now, one thread is better to avoid too much confusion.

All I was suggesting was you could try the mod it fixes the issue for you as well but that's of course up to you.

@RavenLure Please do try the mod as Crin suggests.  It's helped a lot even though they're still drinking a lot, we're not having to mop puddles at least!  Sounds to me like the issue is going to get fixed, reading between the lines, so I guess we'll have to live with no sinks for a while or any liquid producing machines!🤔

I do not work For EA, but I do like to help people if I can

Keep on simming and have fun!

If anyone has (or wants to try) MCCC, that will solve that problem (and MANY others).

Just use it's included MCTuner. It creates a file in the mod directory to allow it to work across ALL saves. You can add lines in it to stop random water drinking, tea drinking, coffee drinking, random ghosts breaking objects, random shoveling snow... basically ANY automated tasks.

Here's some of the lines from MY mc_tuner.cfg file...

26319,fridge_GrabDrinkAutonomously
133052,sink_StartCrafting_Autonomously
164355,fridge_GrabWaterAutonomously
222271,autonomous_ObjectPicker_Sink_StartCrafting

Use MCCC's MCTuner and have those lines in the file and your sims will NEVER autonomously get water again.

it fixes the bug with the water puddles caused by the bonehilde problem

This isn't a bonehilda problem. Clearly you haven't read the entire thread, if you had, you would have seen myself and others commenting that we do not have the paranormal pack. Further we have provided videos and photographs of this bug. It exists. It is not an issue with paranormal pack. Its an issue caused by one of the recent patches: December 7th, 2020, December 14th, 2020 or January 21st, 2021

Here is a screenshot of my most recent Sims 4 purchases

CM Edit: Removed screenshot as it contained information that would aide in the theft of an account

I have not purchased Paranormal Pack. Nor have several others in this thread

Before you tell me "this thread is about the bonehilda problem" no it is not. If you look at the creation date of this thread, this bug existed well before BoNeHeLdA existed in Sims 4

@elektropunch I said it was caused by the PATCH that came before paranormal. Of course it's happening for everyone but the core issue is still the water passing through bonehilda which isn't gated properly and hence happening to all Sims although it should only happen to bonehilda. I referred to it as the bonehilda issue cause bringing her into the pack caused an issue on the patch.

If people were seeing it BEFORE the paranormal patch, there might be something else going on but that we'll know only after they patched this issue.

@Gednaa

Yeah, didn't make any sense to me either. The "Getting a glass of water" has been a problem for a long time, and instead of fixing it, (nerfing it) they went and added ANOTHER automated action of getting a glass of water, and suspiciously, MCTuner can't detect it. But it  CAN stop it, if you have the code... which is what I posted.
