Camera Centering

Is anyone else getting annoyed by the camera centering anytime a sim entering the area that is known to their sim? Anyone know how to turn it off?? I've looked through the settings and don't see anything to turn it off. This also didn't happen before the update on the 26th.

  • I think it's a bug connected to the phones. The camera always centers on a sim when on their phone for some reason. If my whole household just got home from somewhere, the camera will quickly cycle through all of them.
  • ok thanks. It's happening ever time any sim enters the neighborhood and is known to my sim so I thought it was a new option that I could turn off

    Yup, it's meant to one time show the new phone cover you've chosen, but for some reason, every time the sim appears on the lot, they show it off, causing the camera to center on them.

    As a rotational player with a lot of sims with customized phones, I agree, it is really annoying. I don't care about random sim's phone, I care about the thing currently going on in my lot!
  • I’m a rotational player with like 40 sims in this generation so it’s driving me crazy. Even worse when you go to a community lot cuz it’s constantly going all over the place. I tried getting some sims married and it was a nightmare
