[OPEN] Routing failures in Group dance
Since the June 2 patch, having trouble with the group dance at nightclubs. I use mods, took them all out, did a clean install per EA's instructions, reset my library to get my groups back, still the ...

Something is definitely wrong with group dancing since the patch. Tonight my sim was invited to the Ancient Ruins for a party. When I told my sim to do a group dance she would give the shoo animation as usual but then end up walking to the side, giving the question mark in a bubble thought. When I tried to select group dance after she put her arm down, the option was actually grayed out. Hovering over it showed a tool tip that the dance floor was busy.
If I then had her just dance with the group, then click on the ground again, the option for a group dance would again be selectable. I would have her stop dancing and try again to start a group dance but the results were the same. I tried multiple times but no group dance was attainable at the Ancient Ruins at all.
Vanilla game, i5-6600 at 3.3GHz, Nividia GTX 970, windows 10, fully updated.
Edited to add experience with club in Pan Europa this morning, with pics.
Had sim click on floor to do group dance. Got the shoo other sims away, walk to side with question mark in bubble and queue goes empty. The pic is to show the group dance option was available.
After it failed, I was going to have the sim choose group dance option again. As you can see in the pic, group dance didn't even appear as a choice. Note, too, that show off moves is grayed out. As also shown in the pic, the queue has nothing shown for a current action with the game prompting listen or watch the dj booth, not sure which it was, as the next upcoming action to do.
After multiple attempts, I was finally able to get one group dance to take place but what an ordeal!
I tested this yesterday but only with two Sims and at my own venue so I'll try this again tomorrow.
Tried the group dance again after advice to move my sims folder to desktop, start and new game and them replace my folders with the original. Still did not work right. I had four sims in my group dance. They dance fine when no other sims are around, no problem. First problem I've ever had with sims 4.

Still no luck with group dance. Have reinstalled my game, factory settings, only reloaded my tray setting so I would have a family, took out all cc's and mods, but they will only group dance when no other sims are around. Moved the dance floors in the nightclubs, so they didn't overlap, put two in place were there was only one, still not luck. The minute other sims show up, they won't group dance at all. Can't think of anything else to try. Has to be the new patch. Never had any problem with the sims before this.
