[FIXED] Autonomous Insulting (1.94.147/1.68)

Product: The Sims 4
Platform:Sony Playstation 4
Which language are you playing the game in? English
How often does the bug occur? Occasionally (10% - 49%)
What is your current game version number? 1.94.147/1.68
What expansions, game packs, and stuff packs do you have installed? Base game only
Steps: How can we find the bug ourselves? Let your Sims start talking, soon they'll start using mean interactions
What happens when the bug occurs? They use mean interactions randomly, without a reason, ruining relationships.
What do you expect to see? I Expect to see Sims talking normally like it was before the last 2/3 patches.
Have you installed any customization with the game, e.g. Custom Content or Mods? On console - never used.
Did this issue appear after a specific patch or change you made to your system? Yes
Please describe the patch or change you made. Note: I personally play on PC but the reports that still occur are for console only so I'm making this report for console at this time. The answers given don't match my situation but the ones of the reporter of this thread to the best of my knowledge.

Information about this error

Disclaimer: This is not official info but information Kuttoe (modder) gave me and backed up up by evidence in this thread.

The mean interaction issue has been solved for most users completely now but there are still a few users reporting hence I'm making a new thread for this.

There are a few legit interactions but they should not be excessive.

Legit Interactions

There are a number of mean interactions that are perfectly legal and happen throughout your game. These are NOT bugs. They should not be excessive though unless you have an NAP or Club rule pushing them.

Basic Mean Autonomy 

BOTH of these conditions must be met:

  • NOT Happy or Flirty
  • NOT Good or Loyal

Additionally one of the following must be met

  • Conversation Quality is Distasteful, Offensive, Abhorrent, Insufferably Tedious, or Very Awkward
  • Two Sims are Broken Up
  • Active Sim is angry
  • Friendly Relationship between the Sims is -10 or lower
  • Active Sim is Erratic, Mean or Evil
  • Active Sim is under the effect of the Begonia Flower Arrangement
  • Active Sim is under the effect of Tense Secret Society Spirt
  • Active Sim has a bitter or furious Sentiment towards the target Sim.

There's also some nichy autonomy which I don't want to list all at this point but these are probably most common

  • Active Sim is a child or teen with the Mean Streak phase
  • Active Sim is a child or teen with an Empathy score under -35

Information needed

If your issue is not explainable by any of the above , please post in this thread with either information which interactions your Sims are still doing. Make sure to post which packs you own and maybe post a video.

    Sul Sul!

    We've now released the latest update for The Sims 4 on all console platforms, this issue should no longer be occurring and this thread will now be closed. 

    If you are still seeing any issues on console after this update related to Sims being autonomously mean, please create a new thread here

    Thanks for bearing with us though this!
