Since getting Get Together I've seen townies randomly fighting each other and my sim. I've seen it happen once, maybe twice, during a night of game play but last night my sim was attacked four times. I only have the base game with Get Together and Jungle Adventure and was playing only one sim in the household which I almost always do. I play with autonomy off otherwise my sims would drive me freakin insane. I've googled this and read the old posts and didn't see any solution to this.Been in a real loner mood so till last night my sim had done the Rags to Riches thing then been pretty much staying at home cranking out aspirations and skills and using the reward points to lock down his needs and pick up other improvements. Last night I got bored enough to venture out but opted to observe the townies from afar. First time he was attacked my attention was elsewhere when I noticed a confident moodlet pop up that essentially said, "Kicked her butt". Wait, what?! Looked in his relationship list and saw a towny I had not seen before with their relationship midway in the red. Decided to make it final and drove it all the way red. Second time I saw Nancy Landgraab walk up to my sim and attack him. I had read that with enough mean interactions you can make them die from extreme anger and decided to try this on Nancy. Worked at it for a while and had her extremely uncomfortable with an obvious need for a shower but she managed to slip off the edge of the area and disappear. Third time it was an old woman trying to attack my sim. Already had testingcheats on so I reset her then moved my sim away, she stood there for a while then went after my sim again. Being just a few hours till his work time I just sent my sim home. Fourth time a new guy attacked and I used the testingcheats to pull him into my household then edited the household and deleted him. Noticed he had the Evil trait but don't recall the others.This is equal parts annoying and amusing. If anyone knows how to stop this autonomous fighting I welcome the solution, but I'm also curious about other's experiences with this.

Sims in Windenburg will attack each other randomly. I think it's supposed to be like bar fights or something.

This is something I didn't know. I have owned get together almost since it came out and it was my only EP for a long time and I have never seen an attack. It would make things a lot more interesting and lively if it happened in my games! The only attacks I ever see in game are when i am on patrol in the get to work police career.

Oh, that is Windenburg doing, happens mostly at the "old town" , it is hilarious to watch :p (last part was only my own opinion)

@Becka28 , I usually see those when my sims are at that night club, Narwhal Arms, or what it is called :) Not inside the club, but outside at the square :)

@elIupelluellu I will have to watch carefully now. There is always something to learn in this game I find.

When townies attack

Since getting Get Together I've seen townies randomly fighting each other and my sim. I've seen it happen once, maybe twice, during a night of game play but last night my sim was attacked four times.

Yep, this happened occasionally to me when I first got GT. Once it was child sim that attacked my YA. Haven't seen something like that for a long while though, despite playing in Windenburg.

Last night got attacked a bunch more times, more than four but probably less than ten. The response I settled on was just let them have their poke at me then ignore them, I'm curious how many negative relationships I can collect and what the game's response may be. And yes, one of the attackers was a child. It surprised me that they all immediately tried to chat with my sim after they fought. Yea, no, it takes me a bit longer than that to forgive so I clicked the chat icon to cancel the chat and ignored them. Got attacked more frequently in the old part of town but being I was in that part of town more frequently can't really draw any conclusions there. Have been attacked in the newer part of town.

The one that hurt was Candy Behr, she was one of my favorite premade sims so it was disappointing when she attacked, and then attacked again when I canceled her chat. But revenge was sweet. I managed to be at the newer nightclub when Candy was there and just when she had cleared everyone off the dance floor so she could show off I attacked. I kept at her till her hygiene AND bladder failed right there in front of everyone.

Can't imagine her ever forgiving me after that, actually I know the game doesn't give them anyway to remember such things but it doesn't feel realistic for my sim to not be a public enemy after that. And true to form while at The Shrieking Llama bar the townies freely chatted with my sim including at least two of them I know had witnessed my altercation with Candy at the club and I'd expect them to be on her side.

Though bothersome that the townies' response to a loner sitting by himself seems to be to make him fight this has been one of the more entertaining game plays I've had in a while

This isn't related to the Eco EP vote board then?

I had assumed it was due to that.

Now I'm also curious to watch for it.

OP says that they only have GT and JA :) That NAP would of been my guess too if they would have EL :)

Hm, I did not know this, although I love WB and play there a lot. I thought OP was referring to the fighting ECO hood trait first :)

I think it only happens in Windenburg in , Old Town at night. I personally find it hilarious because I love the fight animations.
