Steps: How can we find the bug ourselves? Have a roommate living in the active household
What happens when the bug occurs? Roommates will autonomously come to active Sim to chat but freeze and will be unable to do the interaction while all needs keep decaying. This also causes the active Sim to freeze and not do given commands. Both Sims must be reset before either can do anything. The interaction sometimes appears in active Sims cue and can be deleted but it often doesn't show anything.
What do you expect to see? I expect my Sim to do a command I've given but they stand idle until the other Sim unfreezes and walks over, generally with a full bladder so it takes forever. Or to see the 'chat' interaction in their cue so I can cancel it if I want to.
Have you installed any customization with the game, e.g. Custom Content or Mods? On console - never used.
Did this issue appear after a specific patch or change you made to your system? Neutral/Not Sure
The issue with a roommate freezing sometimes blocks other Sims from spawning in when they usually would, e.g. during a yard sale or social event.
