If these are supposed to still be kin ( I know I had this problem years ago, too) she or any of them shouldn't be going to bust a move which is a semi flirt. I'm thinking it's the programming and not any mods installed because I also had this problem years ago with another family who developed love interest in his niece and vice versa once she aged up. But if it ever got corrected and kept them close enough kin to not do these things I don't remember it. If it's mod related and was truly fixed in the past, then it might be a mod that causes this that allows me to control other Sims on the lot. But I'm thinking this is all by design and was never fixed to where players were not bothered by it.
When you are saying they are in the family tree but not kin, do you mean in their relationship panel they are not marked as family? I'm guessing that is what you mean since I don't see attraction on a sim marked as family, but want to check. As others have said, I have sims Bust a Move on siblings, on parents, etc. it doesn't mean they aren't related, it's a friendly interaction not specifically romantic. I get where you felt it must be romantic because of the lightning bolt and the fact they have that is interesting, but as Seera said before, any interaction can bring that up. I just checked in my game where I have multiple generations and the families have intermarried and had kids with different partners, some CAS some born in game, etc....ALL of the aunt/uncles/cousins show up as family (as long as they have met of course) not only in the family tree, but also in the relationship panel, regardless of the age gap, full parentage, etc. The same goes for the adult relatives, ALL of the nieces and nephews they have met are marked as family in the relationship panel. Is this only happening with this family?
