NPCs Behaving Unusually
Currently having a big problem with my game with NPC Sims acting strangely.: Whenever going to a community lot such as a bar, there will be no customers. Bouncers and mixologists will leave the pr...
@puzzlezaddictThis is the first time I've used mods with the game on this computer (the nraas one I just downloaded). Never used CC neither.
Interestingly, I had my Sim visit Egypt and the NPCs act normally there. Still were broken in Bridgeport when I returned, though.
Also tried running a job with the film career at the theatre, then resetting the lot. And quitting my Sim's job and resetting the lot. Nope.
@danielr02 With the lot that sims are attracted to totally bulldozed, please click on the ground and select NRaas > MC > Object Stats, then let me know if MC finds any objects, I mean other than possibly a few sims who've come back. If you do see a few, you can try deleting them by selecting them for flushing; just don't delete any sims or plumbobs. And be prepared to quit without saving. This is just an experiment though; don't worry about any negative results.
@danielr02OK, so on my regular save, I accidentally clicked “repair all” with nraas, then reset the cinema lot, then had my Sim do the “research competitor film” job when the game naturally generated it. Seems like one of those things worked (think it worked before the job) because now there isn’t a million sims at the cinema and a lot more at home. Will test and see if bartenders, bouncers, parties etc. still work once I get the chance.
EDIT: Switched to an NPC household I know was affected by the bug and their queues are normal now!
EDIT2: Yep, all fixed now! Thanks for the mod!
@danielr02 That's kind of fascinating, and thanks for the update. I have no idea why it worked, or rather what could have been broken that MC fixed, but the important thing is that it did work.
As a side note, I'd recommend keeping these mods in your game just for the overall health of your save. However, they're all removable whenever you want, so if you do want to play without them, it won't immediately damage your save.
