Since the walk in closets were introduced I've noticed that AFTER one of my household Sims uses a closet in a retail lot to change a townie's costume, the active Sim is changed to another one of the ...

    • Using the closet to change the outfit of a non-household Sim should no longer switch the active player control to other Sims in your household. This was particularly a problem if the other Sim that was given control was on a different lot, resulting in you loading a new lot upon returning from Create a Sim.

    Fixed in Patch 1.25.135

Funny enough what you describe (the reset to home lot) happened to me before on ANY community lot.

I'm surprised it didn't happen for you before.

But yeah, I agree, it shouldn't be that way.

EDIT: Now I tested this again in my game and this time it did not teleport them back to the home lot.

Wonder what triggers it.

EDIT EDIT: I've added for now

    @crinrict I've tested this with a new file, base household with two sims. The problem occurs when editing sims which are not members of the active household and while the oldest sim in the household (oldest objectID not age) is not at the active lot where the closet object exists. The player is returned to the lot where the oldest sim is present. Apparently they've selected the active lot ID by the household array (which would return the current zone and lot for the first simID in the household array) rather than by active sim.

      But only for retail ?

      Cause my test yesterday on the community lots was NOT the oldest household member at all.

      It did happen for general community lots for me before Feb 4th patch.

        No, this occurs everywhere and only while editing 'neighbor' sims.
