Action queued by the AI automatically cancelled when player adds new action
Product: The Sims 4
Platform: PC
Which language are you playing the game in? English
How often does the bug occur? Every time (100%)
What is your current game version number? 1.85.203.1030
What expansions, game packs, and stuff packs do you have installed? discover university, eco lifestyle, get famous, get to work, get together, seasons, jungle adventure, parenthood, spa day, strangerville, perfect patio
Steps: How can we find the bug ourselves? Wait for the AI to automatically add an action to an idle sim's queue. Then add an action to the queue.
What happens when the bug occurs? The original action added to the queue by the AI will be automatically cancelled.
What do you expect to see? I expect for the action to be not be deleted since I want to add to the queue with my own action, not have the first action be deleted.
Have you installed any customization with the game, e.g. Custom Content or Mods? No
Did this issue appear after a specific patch or change you made to your system? No
Edited to add:
I thought this was a bug but it turns out this was a changed feature of the queuing system. Note that this system did not work like this in previous Sims games (I went back to check). This is now a feedback post that this change from the previous iteration of the Sims is an unwelcome one, in my opinion, for the reasons on which I elaborate in my comments below.
Heya @Anonymous
I've reviewed this with the Sims team and they've confirmed that this is by design.
