Steps: How can we find the bug ourselves? Brew a pot of coffee (frequently, since it doesn't happen every time), and then que up other things to do, or wait for them to que up other actions.
What happens when the bug occurs? The brew coffee action continues to stay in the que and sometime prevents them from performing the next action, or takes longer to get to the next action. It stays "loading" after the coffee is brewed, after they come home from work, and until I shut down the game.
What do you expect to see? The brew coffee action to be gone after it is brewed, and not to interfere with the rest of their day.
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? No
Ever since the previous patch, I noticed the coffee thing happening. I knew the new one would be released soon and wanted to wait to see if maybe it got fixed with the new patch before I reported it. The coffee maker I used until recently (I'm trying a new one to see if it still happens with a different one) is the coffee maker that matches the "Schmapple" appliance brands. Usually, while waiting for the coffee to brew, they'll stand there blankly (I totally get it, me too fam), but then it will continue to try and brew the coffee, and it will make them late for work, or not move onto the next action until an insane amount of time later - in game, almost half an hour some times. They're not drinking the coffee during this time, just standing there.
