Issue with vampire run after latest patch update

Before the latest patch, vampire sims who have the vampire run power would only use it occasionally. There was also an option to route to locations normally with the generic "go here" option and the vampire sim would, instead, just walk normally to the location. Now, I'm noticing that if they have this power, they 'vampiricly run' everywhere, even if they're only going from one space in the same room (say, a 2x2 bathroom) to another. There is no "go here" option. I have tried this with and without mods, it's the same issue.

When I go into MCCC and check the buffs, I notice that choosing to remove the buff_vampire_spiritpowers_vampirerunenabled buff restores everything back to normal (i.e. the "go here" option is restored and the "vampiricly run" option is still there, also). Is this normal and how this power is meant to function, now? I haven't played in while, but I do very clearly recall the vampire run power being optional and vampires with the power still being able to walk normally.

  • @getzjk86 To confirm, does this occur if you test vanilla? Exit Sims 4 then move (not copy) your Mods folder to your desktop or rename it. Then delete the file called localthumbcache from Documents > Electronic Arts > The Sims 4. If you think you might accidentally forget to exit without saving after testing, copy your Saves folder to your desktop too, to back it up. Now open Sims 4 and see if you still have the problem. If you don't, you can start the process of figuring out what from your Mods folder was causing it.
