I learned there is the command "Jog Here" from reply to one of my other posts. (The post is a Bug Report about sim not running towards the indicated object.) At the time I was testing with base game, so I thought "Jog Here" will has appear if any DLC adds, like as appearing "Build Sand Sculpture" with adding Island Living. In fact, I played a data saved just before 07/26 update (with all DLC I have) and "Jog Here" appeared. But that was confirmed only in that data. While researching this I found an old thread, "[BY DESIGN] New "jog here" interaction possibly not working as intended". It said "Update adds "Jog Here"". So "Jog Here" should exist as a basic command, right? Why is there no "Jog Here" on any other my data except one?
Tried Action :
・ Tried to playing A few other data saved before 07/26 update.
・ Started a new game in the folder has with that "Jog Here" confirmed data.
・ Tried out the data for several different combinations, base game and DLC.
・ Game restoration from Origin
・ Caches delete - always I delete caches (data in cache folder, in cachestr folder, onlinethumbnailcache folder, clientDB.package file, localthumbcache.package file), before game starts or after ends.
Additional explain :
・ Basically, I only create one Household per one "The Sims 4" folder. When I play different Household, I replace the whole folder.

Is there anything else I should try?

  • @Pick-a-boo_doo How high is the fitness skill of your sims ?

    These are the patch notes from back when it was introduced


    High fitness Sims can now use the Jog Here option when locomoting.
    Yes, locomote. Sims don’t just go here and there, they don’t just walk to and fro, and they certainly don’t just go for a jog… they loco mote, and there’s nothing crazy about it.

    I see that there was a requirement for use "Jog Here".
    I checked the data. A sim could use "Jog Here" were at Lv. 3, and another sim could not use "Jog Here" were at Lv. 1. (Images are attached below). Since I rarely intentionally increase my sim's fitness skills, it seems I could not find "Jog Here" in the data.
    Thank you very much for taking the time to find the patch content while it takes time to process so many reports. It was very helpful.

    @Pick-a-boo_doo It was quite easy to find since you mentioned that [BY DESIGN] post. I just went by the date of that post and looked at the patch notes (which I still all have in my blog) :D

    Glad it's helpful.
