[ARCHIVED] [CD] [HR] [CoL] Animals still use locked gates/walk through walls

Product: The Sims 4
Platform:PC
Which language are you playing the game in? English
How often does the bug occur? Every time (100%)
What is your current game version number? 1.99.305.1020
What expansions, game packs, and stuff packs do you have installed? Get to Work Perfect Patio Stuff Spa Day Cool Kitchen Stuff Spooky Stuff Get Together Romantic Garden Stuff Backyard Stuff City Living Vampires Parenthood Fitness Stuff Toddler Stuff Cats & Dogs Laundry Day Stuff Jungle Adventure My First Pet Stuff Seasons Get Famous StrangerVille Island Living Realm of Magic Discover University Tiny Living Eco Lifestyle Nifty Knitting Snowy Escape Paranormal Country Kitchen Bust the Dust Dream Home Decorator Cottage Living Industrial Loft Blooming Rooms Little Campers Werewolves High School Years Desert Luxe Everyday Clutter Bathroom Clutter Growing Together Greenhouse Haven Basement Treasures Book Nook Horse Ranch
Steps: How can we find the bug ourselves? Lock gate or door for any type of animal.
What happens when the bug occurs? Animals continue to use gate.
What do you expect to see? Locked gates prevent animals from using them.
Have you installed any customization with the game, e.g. Custom Content or Mods? Not now. I've removed them.
Did this issue appear after a specific patch or change you made to your system? Yes
Please describe the patch or change you made. Installed Horse Ranch

I can't get gates or doors to lock out animals since installing Horse Ranch.
I removed mods before installing Horse Ranch and did not use them while this problem occurred.

Locking gates and doors does not stop animals from using gates.
This problem happens when I select each animal to lock out, and also when I select "all pets."
This occurs with multiple gates including the "paddock gate," "stable stall door," and "prison door gate."
This also occurs with buildings and doors.
I don't know if this extends to human sims.

    @josipvalcic What happens if you lock the door for the horses ? Do they still try to come in ?

    Could be they get stuck in very tied spaces.

    Problem is they are going into house walls like it was invisible to horses, that is why it stuck in bathroom as horse have some glitch that when they going around the house like dont see house walls and just walk in the wall and go out from wall, but I see after few times when they go in wall and out they sometimes stuck in some places in house like the bathroom

    im having this issue as well. my sim was riding his horse and ran past his house. the horse glitched and ended up IN the house. now i cannot get her out as i cant select the horse to teleport her anywhere. i tried going to a competition thinking this might reset her location. it did not. when she returned she was back inside the house. resetting the sim/horse did not help

    EDIT. leaving the lot with the horse and then returning seems to fix the problem

    I have tried with many different gates from across multiple expansions, including Base Game, Horse Ranch, and Cottage Living. I have tried 'lock for everyone but Ranch Hand', 'Lock for all Livestock', 'Lock for all Llama's and Cows', 'Lock for all mini farm animals', 'lock for mini sheep', and 'lock for mini goats' but none of them seems to actually lock for any of the animals they should be.

    Locks do not engage.
