Please use this thread going forward: Random sims walking through house | EA Forums - 12145640
Product: The Sims 4
Platform: PC
Which language are you playing the game in?: English
How often does the bug occur?: All saves, any apartment in CL, at seemingly random times.
What is your current game version number?: 1.105.297.1030 (latest patch Feb 27th 2024)
What expansions, game packs, and stuff packs do you have installed?: All except For Rent, Realm of Magic, Journey to Batuu, Patio, Spooky, Bowling, Glamour, Backyard.
Steps: How can we find the bug ourselves?: Play in an apartment in CL
What happens when the bug occurs?: NPC Sims will pop into being and walk either around the perimeter of the apartment (half in half out) or on occasion wander through the middle, then disappear. They look as if they are "somewhere else". They do not interact at all.
What do you expect to see?: Not this!
Have you installed any customization with the game, e.g. Custom Content or Mods?: Mods have been removed after latest patch, caches cleared and I have just had this (again) with a new save.
Did this issue appear after a specific patch or change you made to your system?: I don't know, this has been going on a while - months. It is not constant but is often enough to be considered a regular bug?
Please describe the patch or change you made.: N/A
Sorry I don’t.
No I don't think that's what I'm seeing.
it's not the regular clipping through objects when routing is tight.
The sims in my issue just walk through the apartment. They are not residents of the other lots in the building and are not visiting my lot. They just appear somewhere behind my lot's walls and cross through. Sometimes they exit through a door sometimes just walk out a wall on the other side into the air!
I've attached a couple of screenshots in one Diego Lobo (who i have no relationship with) walked in through a wall and out the door. More commonly they come in through the wall behind the stove, cross the floor and out through the window/wall between the curtains at which point they disappear.
It looks like they are going about their business somewhere else but for some reason are appearing on my lot
