Stuck Sims?! Help
Just wondering if anyone else is having an issue where if you give your sim a task they just stand there and nothing happens.
ie. get mail, go here, etc

I have tried everything you all recommended and then some.
I honestly just want to play ... I haven't played in two weeks and its starting to stress me out. I have been going through so much and just want one good thing to happen ... AHHHHHH
Weirdly, I updated the game and had no issues. I played for about an hour, came back from 'vacation', and suddenly my sim was stuck on her command to go use the toilet. Wouldn't respond to anything, reset sim didn't work. Couldn't even click another sim. They all froze in their actions and I couldn't select a different sim to play.
I messed with the game for like an hour. Took my mods out, repaired the game - did a few variations of that for awhile. Kept having the same problem. I ended up having to revert to my previous save and lost the hour I'd played. I was able to keep my mods in (minus the ones that actually do need updates). Very weird. Prior to this I had a problem out of nowhere with my sims freezing (and freezing everyone else) if anyone interacted with a bar. Didn't update, didn't download anything new. It randomly stopped happening after two real life days of play.
Frequently. Some households more than others. But I am constantly using the resetsim cheat... sigh. It's a pain.
Happens to me on occasion, I queue actions and they just stand there... Super annoying! What I find (usually) helps is to pause my game (by pressing 0) and then resume it again - that usually kick starts the action queue 😃
I found a way to finally get my game back to normal! Sims no longer stop or freeze, they can interact normally. After adding the mod, there is no error in using it for the time being. It is also possible to save the archive successfully.
All you need to do is find the location of your game, find the [Delta] folder, copy the DLC folder you have in it, paste it into [The Sims 4] folder, and replace the duplicate files. Once you enter the game, everything is normal.
Of course, you better back up the [The Sims 4] folder before trying it out, in case that doesn't work for you.
You said "after you add the mod" What mod are you talking about?
All the mods that I used before, functional mods such as MC Center. And others hair, clothes, makeup mods.
I just want to play my game :( Hope they have a solution soon
It happens a lot for me and usually clears up if I open & close the options menu... not that that is a fix.
SuperSillySim marjia FFan1103 This is a known issue:
I don't know of a reliable fix, but you can try moving your sims to a different lot. And keep an eye on that bug thread for updates.
I have tried evicting, moving, all the above to get this as a fix... i cant get nothing to work.
Hello, I've tried some of the resolution in the link, such as disabling Laundry Days and Eco Life Style, fixing the game, re-downloading and installing the game, switching to other families and lots. None of these worked. I don't know what else can be done to fix it.
Open the cheat console, type testingcheats true and hit enter. If you shift-click in your sim now, a menu comes up. Somewhere in this is the option to "reset object". That should give you back control of your sim.
Tried it, it didn't work for me.
I don't have any mods or CC .. not sure what could be causing this. It is so frustrating? HAs anyone come up with a solution yet?
