Strange behavior in StrangerVille

So the weirdest thing happened in StrangerVille.

I had decided to turn Plateau Place into a boarding house by adding a few walls and bedrooms. I currently have a group of four living there; two computer conspiracy geeks, a Native whose people used to occupy the region before the weird shenanigans, and an eccentric med school dropout. Well, they were going about their business, doing what they do, and getting hungry, and one of them decided to make some grilled cheese sandwiches. I wasn't controlling any of them at this point, just kind of looking around and observing, checking out the scenery, etc.... when suddenly I couldn't see anyone in view. I went looking for them and.... oh, it's just too strange!

Spoiler
They had sat down together to eat a meal! All by themselves! Look, I have proof!

Could StrangerVille be the link to getting a weird game to behave normally? What oddity will happen next? Sims facing each other whilst dancing? Oh, the implications!

:D

It really did surprise me, though.
  • I had this happen awhile back when my sim was visiting/squatting in a household. I even made a thread because it surprised me at that time https://forums.thesims.com/en_US/discussion/920854/be-called-to-meal.
    I have had it happen since now and then... but I usually play smaller families that I do most of the controlling on.

    I have never seen my active Sims autonomously call to meal but my Sim has been called to meal, when visiting inactive households.
  • Rofl, that was not what I was expecting at all. I would keep a more careful eye on them in future! You can't have them going around doing stuff like that, it's just not... normal.

    @Hermitgirl That's interesting! So they actually had "be called to meal" pop up in the panel? I mean, I know that we get the option to do that with our playable Sims, I just had no idea it could be autonomous because whenever I want it to be, it doesn't happen, lol.
