Action progress bars no longer are interrupted when a new action is added to a Sim's queue.
Fixed in Patch 1.68.154/ 1.33
If you're still experiencing this issue, please create a new thread.
If you are on PC/Mac and use mods, I've added a fix for this issue in my "Neighbourhood Action Plan Autonomy Fixes" mod. I've only tried it on my own sims who had NAP autonomy stuck on them, and they were fixed. Hopefully it works the same for you too.
You can Google search for "simvasion mods" and find it on my WordPress blog.
Detailed Info for SimGurus:
I don't know how, but for some reason I found a few of my sims who had the commodity triggers for NPC only NAP behaviour stuck on them, even without the associated NPC autonomy buffs which get applied to instanced NPCs while in an active NAP area. I've played since launch of the pack and switched households many times in my rotational playing, but so far only found two sims that were affected in this way (there may be more but I haven't reached them in my rotation yet).
I modded the stuck commodities by adding the "persistent tuning" flag and setting it to false. I don't know if that's the best way to fix the issue, but it fixed up my affected sims.
Another fix I tried before this was using cheats to remove the commodities manually, which also worked (but this method requires installing the TwistedMexi all cheats enabler mod).
