[FIXED] [DU] Shock from the Robotics Station too frequent/ Sims don't stop

Product: The Sims 4
Platform:PC
Which language are you playing the game in? English
How often does the bug occur? Every time (100%)
What is your current game version number? 1.75.125.1030
What expansions, game packs, and stuff packs do you have installed? Expansion: All Game Packs: Outdoor Retreat, Spa Day, Dine Out, Parenthood, Jungle Adventure, Strangerville. Dream Home Decorator Stuff Packs: Vintage Glamour, My First Pet, Moschino Stuff, Tiny Living, Nifty Knitting
Steps: How can we find the bug ourselves? 1. Buy a robotics station 2. Have a Sim build robots 3. Wait for the Sim to get shocked
What happens when the bug occurs? Sims get shocked by the robotics station too often, even at high skill levels. Sims who are shocked by the robotics station and get dazed will continue to work on the station.
What do you expect to see? The Sims to get shocked by the robotics station less. The Sims to also stop working on the robotics station when they are shocked.
Have you installed any customization with the game, e.g. Custom Content or Mods? Never used.
Did this issue appear after a specific patch or change you made to your system? No

In club and organizational gatherings, this becomes an issue because NPC Sims and player Sims will autonomy turned on will continue to work on the robotics station until they die.  The high chance of shock even at high skill levels greatly increases the chance of death.

Edit By Crinrict: Adjusted title



    • Frequency of getting electrocuted from Robotic Workstation has been considerably reduced.

    Fixed in Patch 1.112.481/2.05

    For my sim, this happens every single time I use the Robotics Workshop, level 4 in robotics and level 7 in Handiness, but trying to level it is starting to become a pain, as I can either cheat to remove the debuff or wait the 4 hours for the Dazed debuff to end.

    That said it happens far to often and makes leveling robotics an absolute chore, especially given if you want to play clean, you need to craft a lot of stuff. 

  • @canelacaliente Townie/NPC Sims cannot seem to help themselves either! I was playing as my Sim and all of a sudden the camera zoomed upstairs to where the Bot Savants were working on Robotics. One died and then a couple hours later another one did the exact same thing (got shocked but then used the robotics station again)
