Marking this as solved since I didn't get any new reports
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
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.
