Cottage Living Glitch-Sims stuck in one position

mslataprada  The problem isn't only Cottage Living, or else there would be a lot more reports.  Part of the issue could be the lot you were playing on or a feature you were using.  So try playing a household elsewhere, first without adding any obvious CotL features, and see how it goes.

You don't need to uninstall the entire game to get rid of a single pack.  Instead, just disable it:
