@crinrict It happens to all Sims, even when they have no traits like Clumsy or something. I have three Sims in the household right now, and these are their traits:
1. Hot-headed, mean, genius
2. Jealous, bookworm, gloomy
3. Neat, art lover
The lot traits are Great View and Serviced Apartment. This problem happens on other lots too, when my Sims are visiting their friends and family and someone in those households decide to cook. And like I said, removing my mods, clearing my cache, and repairing my game didn't help.
Could you explain what a folder rename is, please? I haven't heard of this as a potential fix. Thank you! 🙂
Try resetting your user files as described in the factory reset described in this post: http://answers.ea.com/t5/The-Sims-4/FAQ-Troubleshooting-Steps-amp-Known-Issues/m-p/3621199
You won't loose anything. Just make sure to not delete any files and make a backup.
After renaming, repair your game by right clicking on the game in Origin.
Try on a new game with nothing added back first (start new game). If it works, put back your save game and try again. If it still works, you can start putting stuff back.
- Options.ini (or just re-set all your settings manually)
- Tray Folder
- Screenshots/Videos/Custom music
- Rest of the save games (leave out slot_00000001.save which is the autosave and no longer needed - if you still have it)
- Custom content like clothing, hair, skins, make up ....
- ConfigOverride, if you have your own configuration files.
- Mods (one by one, making sure they all still work)
The rest does not need putting back, cause they are mostly cache files that recreate or log files that are not needed for the game.

@crinrict Okay, so I just tried doing all of this. The fires are still constantly happening.
- crinrict5 years agoHero+@Seventopia Would you mind sending me one of your saves ? Instructions in my signature
- crinrict5 years agoHero+@Seventopia I tested your save and I think there's a pattern. They start fires when they get tense and since your main Sim has constant tense moodlets from some lifestyle, she starts fires a lot.
I tested another household and that was fine.
Could you check if you see a correlation between the tense mood and starting fires ?- 5 years ago@crinrict Sent it 🙂

Thanks a bunch! My Sims can finally get some food that's not salad, BLT or chips and salsa 😁
