Marking this as solved since I didn't get any new reports
@DashTheBomber0 I merged your post. It's the same issue.
I appreciate moving my topic to the similar post, but as I mentioned I did research and tried all the solutions that have been given thus far, I even tried repairing the files by right clicking on the sims 4 in my library through origin and no files seem to be missing. I also noticed the same as the other fella mentioned these sims have no real common threads other than being relatives and the worst part is that it isn't simply energy and fun.
My sims can't handle any of their needs NOT A SINGLE ONE unless they are red . They do not do anything for extended periods of times if their needs are green and worst yet the fun and bladder are iffy at best. I've had one sim pee his pants 5 times in 2 sessions in a house with 5 toilets!!! I tried moving my family to the gallery and they lose all their money so I can't place them in a house that's obvs worth 350k I'm pretty much stuck.
So yours might be different after all then
Are you using mods ?
Hi @DashTheBomber0 resetting the lot as suggested previously does seem to make a big difference, I felt much the same as you and I stubbornly refused to move my household out because my hardworking Simself had over a million simoloeons that they would have lost had I moved them to the gallery.
But that's not how to do it...
edit: I forgot about the mods! If you are using any drag that folder onto the desktop and dump the cache If there is anything in there, mine is empty) then
The auto-solve issue will probably still affect them in some way, but hopefully it will be better.
Good luck
As I stated in my original post, I have used absolutely zero mods and only one expansion. I do have the deluxe version of the game though.
I will try this, but look this is merely a band-aid and we shouldn't have to jump through these types of insane hurdles to be able to enjoy a game which we paid good money for.
The AI shouldn't be this bugged period and I'm seriously upset. Also I don't have any mods.
Have you also try turning off free will and turning it back on.
I do still believe yours might be connected to the same bug. Might not, it's hard to tell.
Yes I have actually, it was the first thing I thought of due to years of customer service.
Sorry if you stated but I can't keep everything in mind: Do you have the same issue on a new save game too ?
Happy to look at your save if you want me too. Just upload it somewhere.
I too have this problem, and can't come up with a solution.
I've played about eight or nine households in the past couple days and have visited at least as many. I don't use the 'fun' button, but do use the energy button.
When changing households I notice that a small percentage of the sims will go to sleep, or nap automatically without me telling them too. But after the first time, the majority of those will no longer choose to do it automatically, nor will the energy button work. I've had a household that appeared to have the majority of the sims behaving like they should but I moved the beds to a new location, then no sims would rest automatically or with the energy button. They would have a bed selected. For the most part I have to manually click on a bed for the sim to sleep.
When I visit other households, there may be a very small percentage of sims who will go to bed automatically. The rest of them just stand in one place until they pass out or until they have to use the toilet. I think they would starve to death if I let them. Once they wake up from passing out they stand there until they pass out again. Painful to watch. ☹️
I use mods to automate things, and have not removed them. I probably will since the game is no longer playable in this fashion. I too do not micromanage every sim every minute of the sim day, and of course have no control over sims whom I visit.
This problem came about at the same time 'select bed' was an option. I have never done that manually, but it happens once a sim uses a bed.
Something that came about just before the update (which I figured changes were being made on the server) is that my Sims get stuck in doorways. (not all sims and not all the time) and it's just the main entrance ways to buildings. They eventually snap out and will be doing or have done the commands that were issued prior to them going through the door way.
