Sims currently on different lot not doing what I queued them to do
This surely seems like a bug. I'll take a sim to the gym while everyone else in the household is fast asleep. While I'm at the gym the other sims' icons on the bottom of the screen indicate that they're still asleep. But this indicator isn't accurate--when I return home, every single one of them has gotten out of his/her bed for no reason even though they aren't fully rested and it's still the middle of the night.
Similarly, any time I'm on a community lot and I order a sim at home to work on a certain skill or tend garden, when I get home they're doing nothing of the sort. Often when I'm on a community lot, sims at home that should have gone to work don't go to work even though I get the notification that they're going to work.
I mean, if I direct a sim to practice writing on the computer and then leave the lot, when I return that sim should still be practicing writing on the computer. But instead it seems that returning to the home lot always resets it so that anything I've set in the queue for the at-home sims is gone. Not even the macro-commands like "tend to garden" that you can set for them while you're away function correctly, as the plants are left unchanged.
