Re: My Sim wont move on to the next action until I pause and unpause.

It sounds like this known bug, what do you think?

No it's not that my sim needs input, I will queue up things for her to do and she will finish one action and stand there perfectly still indefinitely even though there are more things for her to do that I've queued. The only way to get her to go to the next action is to pause the game and then resume it.

The needs input is just the tag of the post. Did you read the actual thread ?

It's about autonomy not working.
Yours could be more of a getting stuck though.

Does it matter which interaction they are doing ? How many Sims do you have in your household ?

Yes I did read the post. It doesn't matter what interaction, anything I tell them to do they will do it then go back to standing upright with their arms at their sides and not moving at all, until I pause the game then unpause it. I have two sims

I've did some merging on the other thread as these are all symptoms of Simulation lag.

Does the same happen if you test a new save game for testing purposes ?
