Does anyone else have Sims walking through walls since yesterday's update?

It's not happening often, but a few times now I've had Sims just walk through walls as if they are not even there. Never saw it in my game, like...ever...until after the update yesterday (which I applied early this morning).

Just wondering if anyone else has seen this too or if maybe my game is borked and I should run a repair.

  • I've seen them walking through walls and fences long before the patch.

    Don't think it's the patch, my sims are walking through walls, tables, counters and it's bugging me. Going on a few weeks now.


    I'll second this and add my sims have always walked through walls periodically before and I never used the move objects cheats before. But as more packs have been added over time they are consistently doing it now.
  • Yeah, before my Sims could clip through the door, but still got through it.
    I played yesterday, and my Sims walked directly through the wall, and later on the door. Even though it is kind of funny, I would like it fixed soon.
  • not really but then again i use lots of debug fences anyway that sims do not consider walls so at this point ive probably just gotten good at ignoring :lol:

    also i recall having olive specter jump through wall to outside mid aging up before but that was ages ago

    I've had this happen a few times recently when sims age up. I guess there's not enough room inside so they jump outside.
  • I've never had a sim walk through a wall, but I've had them walk through a half wall many times.

    I saw this happen once the other day but I'm not sure if it was just before or just after the patch. The sim took a path straight through a wall, but the door next to him opened, so I just mentally presumed it was graphics lag.

    Now I'm curious to see if this is a pattern.

    :lol: That's awesome that the door opened at least. I honestly don't know if the door opened or not when I have seen my Sim do it because they have always walked through walls no where close to the door they should have used, so the door was off camera. Now I'm curious.

    It still hasn't happened again, yet, in my game since the 3 times within the same play session that prompted my OP. Very strange.
  • I had a hard time with my Strangerville play yesterday. My Sims kept jumping ahead or behind a few paces at the bar and walking through tables. I had a hard time getting them to sit at the bar to eat or drink. They couldn't travel out of Strangerville to festivals without taking more than one Sim with them. Hopefully it doesn't happen again tonight.
