Hi Simmers :) Have any of you noticed that if your sim plays computer games they no longer look at the screen any more. Even if there is no sims around them they look to the side, its not a death defying bug, but does cause a little irritation if you like watching what your sims do ;)https://i.imgur.com/QldKOBk.png

I suspect it's a mod causing this.

Does it happen with every computer? Wonder if that particular computer is somehow glitched after a patch

It doesn't just happen with computers. It happens with all types of objects and when sims are talking to each other. I had a sim take a bath once, not only was her head twisted to the side but she was sideways in the tub. Looked like she was going to drown.
