[FIXED] Sims Use Far Away Sink for Dishes instead of Close (Patch 1.68)
Product: The Sims 4
Platform:PC
Which language are you playing the game in? English
How often does the bug occur? Often (50% - 99%)
What is your current game version number? 1.168.154.1020
What expansions, game packs, and stuff packs do you have installed? Everything except Journey to Batuu
Steps: How can we find the bug ourselves? Have a sim clean up dishes. It doesn't seem to happen in every house, but this house it's become infuriatingly noticeable.
What happens when the bug occurs? I have my sim clean up after eating, or clearing out the fridge. They will dump the leftovers into the trash can, but then make their way to the bathroom sinks, rather than the kitchen sink or dishwasher they were standing right next to.
What do you expect to see? I except them to use the kitchen sink or dishwasher. Especially if it's the closest sink in the house. I expected this to have been fixed given the patch notes.
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? Neutral/Not Sure
I was excited to see that sims should no longer be doing the dishes in the bathrooms, then I noticed it still didn't seem to be working as intended.
I don't think it's been happening in every house since I updated the game, but it's become much more noticeable in this house.
I thought it was something to do with mods, but I tried it on a fresh save with the same house downloaded from the gallery that was built with no Custom Content.
I put the house in question on my Google Drive, which can be found here: https://drive.google.com/file/d/1V1Io8zVr3uZ3y0fY_usnibANY4_Jt2JO/view?usp=sharing

Sink Assignments
The jig is up for Sims who had a penchant for shoving Harvestfest turkey bones down the drains of those poor, poor bathroom sinks. Starting today, all sinks can now be designated as Kitchen or Bathroom sinks.'Fixed' in Patch 1.103.250/1.84
I assume that if you have multiple kitchen, the issue can still potentially happen. Make a new thread if it's excessive.
@LadyAofPineapple Sorry, didn't see your question. It's base game.
