@crinrictooh ok, how do I go about fixing via origin?
@Demiliaxox Did fixing the game help you ?
- Been having this issue for a couple of weeks and it seems to be getting worse. My Sims live in an apartment which has a half-wall side area (the 3 floor 1 in the fashion district), initially when Sims put dishes on this area they couldn't clean them, would just pick them up and put them down again, but if I moved the dishes they could clean them.
Now it happens with all dishes. Sometimes Sims will pick all dishes up but then put down the pile without cleaning,
It doesn't happen everytime but more often than not. With the dishes on the half-wall it always happens.
I've worked around it by dragging food to the bin, but this is frustrating as I have the bin that gives money and it no longer gives money if you drag stuff into it - @crinrict yeah, the table as well. Not everytime with the table though.
- @Lucybird87 Once something is on the half-wall, they can't clean anything.
So guess my question is: Do you get this issue even though there's nothing on any half-wall ?
(this thread is more general as there used to be an issue with shelves and I'm trying to find out if those are still bugged).
Half-walls have their own thread so if it's the half-walls that cause the issue for you (even if they can't clean anything else once you have something on the half-wall), I'll move this over to the half-wall thread. - @crinrict I'll try and test it out
People, what are you talking about? This isn't a bug... this is a brand new exercise routine for your sims! Pick up the dishes, put them down, pick up the dishes, put them down, now take a deep breath... and let it out... now resume... pick up the dishes, put them down...
To be serious, this is really getting annoying. I'm playing as I type this, letting the autonomy do its thing, and one of my sims is standing in the kitchen doing nothing but picking up and putting down some dishes. He stood there for at least 2 in-game hours before going to use the computer, but then that didn't last long and he was right back in the kitchen doing the latest craze in fitness. Luckily his wife is awake now so that they can interact, because if there's one thing that he seems even more obsessed with it's interacting with his wife. Well he was interacting with his wife, until he got some water now he seems confused about what to do with the glass so he's just standing there again... great.
At first I thought it was just from them trying autonomously, but even trying to manually have them do it doesn't work either. It's a good thing for the live drag feature, because without it my sims' homes would be giant piles of dishes. Unfortunately though, because of the live drag I don't expect this problem to be fixed since it seems that so many players are willing to accept workarounds as a permanent solution.
I'm playing on an Xbox One with whatever the latest update is, and I feel like this problem started recently so I can't help but wonder if the latest update caused this. I also only have one pack, Kids Room Stuff, so I doubt the problem is pack specific.
