Dropping things more often since patch?

I played for about half a RL hour tonight and two of my sims dropped their plates of food-- not an animation, just the "grab a serving" action got canceled and then the food was on the floor. And then both university students dropped their homework books, again, not the animation where they put them down, they just ended up on the floor.

One sim is clumsy but the others are not.

It's sort of like what happens with toddlers when they have harvestables in their inventory (which let's be clear, all of my toddlers always have harvestables in their inventory) -- sometimes when they get up from a chair or bench the harvestables fall out onto the ground. It's ok with me that a bunch of apples might fall out of a toddler's pockets. Not sure I feel the same way about grown people forgetting to eat and putting their plates on the floor instead.

  • This has been happening to me more lately, but I think it started before the patch.
  • I’m getting this too. Both times MCCC generated a “last exception” notice and my sims reset. I thought it might be a mod conflict but now I suppose it might be a patch bug...
  • I got this too with the university homework, before the patch. It wouldn't let me pick it up again as it said it wasn't his to take. Bought like 20 of them from the bookshelf though!
  • Cool, thanks guys. If it keeps happening over a couple hours or more of gameplay, I'll make a bug report about it and post the link here. Or if anyone else does, you can post the link to yours and I will "me too" it :)
  • After a few more hours of play I think this may have just been a coincidence. Haven't noticed any more dropping things.

  • My sims seem to be easily distracted since the last patch. They will start an activity like Yoga but get distracted by something else two seconds later. It's actually being quite annoying.
  • ive been playing vlad and judith and they seem to drop some queue at times to hiss or whatever

    and also all visitors and walkbys seem to have obsession with clay and that sketchpad thing vs socializing which neither should even be in their inventory or on lot but that was even before the patch likely some earlier patch

    aaand then there is sims constantly playing the chair game which sometimes also drops queue cause they are too busy sitting about but that also was since couple patches back i think cause i even had that when playing bob
