    Sims now more consistently wash hands in the sink closest to the toilet.

    Fixed in Patch 1.99.264/1.78

I just started having this issue today and based on some brief skimming and some testing I think I have a solution.

The problem seems to occur when you have 4 or more sinks in a single household.

I recently added an additional bathroom to my 6 person household and this gave me a total of 4 sinks. After removing the 4th sink everyone went back to normal handwashing behavior. The way I have gotten around this is by removing my kitchen sink and just using the dish washer. TBH it is a pain in the butt trying to prevent my sims from loading one dish in to the washer but I am making it work to keep my 3 functional bathrooms. Other option is to condense your bathrooms so couples can take advantage of not being embarrassed while showering or bathing simultaneously.

@Rev_Shadow508 also make sure those bathrooms aren't near each other. I'm playing the Ito household from the Snowy Escape pack atm. The house design has them playing musical sinks quite often. (a shame because I do like the floor plan, aside from there wasn't a bathroom upstairs. >.< ) :/
