My Sims Aren't Doing Anything...

There are some moments where my sims will just be standing idly as if I have autonomy off. I only have it off for the selected sim, but I rarely switch over to the other sims. I have a sim right now who is on the verge of passing out and he's not doing a single thing. No simulation lag, no actions are queued up... The only way to fix it is to keep resetting them and it's getting tiring.

  • My alien sim has frozen a few times in the last couple of days while doing random things. Once was after coming out of the shower and another after checking the babies. I cancelled the tasks in her queue, and all was fine again.

    i've seen this happen but only when someone is mentoring another sim doing homework and someone else comes along and talks to the sim doing their homework and then literally everything stops like everyone saw Riddick kill a guy with a teacup or john wick with a pencil, totally entranced until i have to find the sim talking and end the conversation and then everything goes back to normal, with or without mods it is the same and has been there since i started playing TS4.
  • Atleast they seem to stay hydrated. But I've also had times where my Sims stopped taking care of themselves, and just stand there until everything go red.

    Just a little update: I repaired my game but I think the issue still remains. It's better when they appear on a lot for the first time, or on a public lot (and it's been that way before I repaired) but when I'm on a residential lot, they still seem to just do nothing. Either talking for ages or just sitting there. I guess we only have to hope this is fixed in the next patch.

    This happened with the last 2 patches. I wish they'd fix it already.
