allow Sims to travel on their own every time they choose to.

i have recently noticed that sometimes, an active Sim will automatically travel with a second one who was not selected from the window that lets you pick up to 7 other Sims to travel with.

as an example: a Sim from the same household as the active one (who was standing on the pavement) walked up to chat with them. when the active Sim clicked on a neighbour's house to visit them, the Sim she was talking to was also standing there after the loading screen, which is what i've always seen. but when knocking on the door, both Sims are let inside, as if they travelled/went to visit together. this is new to me.

i'm sorry if this is another stupid post (i'm great at those). if anybody can explain why it happens at random, i would be really grateful.

if this is indeed a new addition, my feedback would be that i'd appreciate it if Sims could travel alone again, every time they choose to. thank you.

    If you already travelled somewhere with someone that person/Pet is preselected in the dialog if you decide to travel somewhere else. The same is true if you before travelling form a group.

    The game likely saw them as a group since they were talking. Sims that are auto selected should appear first in the list So it is easy to spot if they are selected.

    that's odd. you know the symbol they get after they form a group? it wasn't there. i've never had a group form just because Sims are talking, and the second Sim was not preselected. 🤔
