[FIXED] Sims won't stay in bed

Hi @unseenlarks

Do you encounter the issue if you remove the wind chimes?

We also observed wind chimes in your save and were not able to reproduce the issue if we remove them. 

Any other information you can provide?

Thank you very much! 

The thing about the wind chimes is that they've been in his room for the whole time, and I can successfully get both him and the butler to sleep in that room with the chimes with the right combination of jiggling around repairing, restarting and changing beds.

They've never posed an issue before.

Thank you both for the info and clarification!

We will keep trying to reproduce this issue 🙂.

thank *you*, @SimGuruIcarus! :D

(edit: i want to do more testing, but i'm unable to ATM. maybe i could add some more wind chimes, to see what happens to the other Sims in the house? what else could i try with?

edit 2: i changed the reason why i can't, because i remembered that what i wrote is off-topic. sorry.)

Hello everyone!

We had no luck trying to reproduce this issue. 

Would any of you be willing to send us a video of the issue? If so,

Thank you very much!

hey i was having this same problem and i moved my "antique Tomes" to another room and then my sims could sleep again..maybe there is emotional enabled objects that are causing this issue? My problem was an emotional enabled inspirational item that i got from the writer's career.  I simply moved the antique tomes back to the kitchen and my sims could nap on the couch in their room and sleep on their bed again.  When I had Antique Tomes in the room, my sims would lay in bed for an hour and get up, no matter how much I tried to get them to sleep.  When I moved the couch back to the living room where Antique Tomes was, then my sims couldn't sleep again!

I also notice that my sims with autonomously look at the Antique Tomes and also not be able to sleep unless i move them from current lot to a different lot and back

Anyone still experiencing this issue?

Thank you! :D

They're all happily sleeping on the first try (except the one with the wind chimes which I have removed)

 EDIT: Which packs do you own ?

Nope, I only ever had this issue once. It's never happened again.

I just had something very similar happen to a sim in my game yesterday. I was checking out build mode for the new goodies and afterward decided to play a few moments. One of my played sims went over to her friend's house and the dude kept getting in and out of bed. (no mods, no pets in the household, no bad weather). With my played sims, it's usually because their queue had the bed icon stuck, so I tried resetting the sim. No good. I switched gameplay to him to see if I could see anything but didn't spot anything out of the ordinary. His [vampire[ energy was about halfway full, hunger was only in the yellow. I put him to bed and he stayed there like normal from that point. Got it on video at least though IDK if it will insert at the moment...so bizarre.

I have a similar version of this bug with teenagers in single beds: The Sim will go to bed, get up immediately and then stand like frozen in front of the bed while the sleeping symbol in the queue continues. This can be fixed by resetting the Sim or moving the bed in build mode. The second try to send the teen to bed is always successful.

This bug is very old and was gone for a long time, but it seems to have returned with one of the recent patches. It happens every night with one of my Sims.
