[Solved] LD's funeral makes sims not do anything.

So yeah, as in the title, sims stop doing anything when the funeral begins. At first I thought it's a lag or game just hanging up, but nopers, time passes normally, I can give my sims orders, go thro...

    Okay, I found the mod causing this issue - it's Market Stalls Everywhere by Kuttoe (which in fact I updated when author updated their mod).
    My method of figuring it out:
    At first I was taking out different folders with mods (some I have sorted by authors), once I took out one folder without which sims at funerals were working, I started taking different files within this folder (again, I pulled out the mods from that folder by the creators).

    Noticed that after taking out all of mods by Kuttoe, sims at funeral were working, so here I started doing the 50/50 method.

    After many attempts, and deleting localthumbcache file every restart thorough my tests, I was left with only this mentioned above mod causing the trouble.

    So I decided to take a last test, to see if maybe it's some weird mod conflict only, I took out all my mods, kept only resource.cfg file and the market stalls mod inside the mods folder and my sims at the funeral were still not working, which leads to conclusion that Market Stalls Everywhere by Kuttoe is breaking the sims AI at funerals.

@anhaeeyn We can't know if this is a mod issue without a vanilla test. Even mods that were previously updated or cleared can turn out to cause issues with a new pack, and that pack was only just released.

I understand. Just now I've created a new save - with mods enabled sims were not doing anything during the funeral, as in the main post. I disabled mods, deleted cache and restarted the game - now without any mods, during the funeral sims were in fact, working.

      @anhaeeyn Thank you! I'll drop this note to Kuttoe to see if he can confirm. Did you also delete localthumbcache?

        @anhaeeyn Kuttoe could reproduce this behaviour in-game without the mod installed. Have you tested vanilla? (No mods, no CC, delete localthumbcache.)
