Wait, why the hell is my post in here? My issue has nothing to do with sims catching on fire all the time. Yeah, that does happen but that's not the issue i'm complaining about. Please separate the issues or I will repost my concern.

@KatastrophicSim Sorry, since I thought you just reposted cause you posted in both threads.Guess i wasn't fully awake :D

Been happening too much lately (the reposting) 

EDIT: Need to do further testing tomorrow. Works fine for me. I assume it happens for you too when not in a weenie roast ?

EDIT EDIT: Guess I shouldnt' try this in a thunderstorm

    @crinrict That's alright, happens to the best of us.
    But yes, completely different issues. Or maybe not? Maybe the fact there were two fires beforehand plays into it? or the fact its a weenie party?

    Also, it happened on the other side as well, there was a sim sitting in the middle slot on the other sofa and she said that sim was in the way before that sim moved, and now THIS sim is somehow in the way.

    Perhaps the other sims are stuck in an autonomous loop of trying to use the campfire but can't because it isn't lit, so my sim thinks she can't use it because its being used even though that isn't the case.

      @KatastrophicSim I think the issue was the thunderstorm. The sim has already decided to run back inside when the other Sim decided to light the fire so it worked.

      I retested on a game without thunderstorm and I can duplicate this there

      Guess just another routing issue
