Sims are not following prompts, mostly just standing there.

Product: The Sims 4
Platform:PC
Which language are you playing the game in? English
How often does the bug occur? Often (50% - 99%)
What is your current game version number? 1.78.58.1030
What expansions, game packs, and stuff packs do you have installed? Cats & Dogs City Living Eco Lifestyle Get to Work Get Together Island Living Seasons Jungle Adventure Outdoor Retreat Parenthood Realm of Magic Spa Day StrangerVille Vampires Backyard Stuff Cool Kitchen Stuff Fitness Stuff Kids Room Stuff Laundry Day Stuff Luxury Party Stuff Moschino Stuff Movie Hangout Stuff My First Pet Stuff Paranormal Stuff Perfect Patio Stuff Romantic Garden Stuff Spooky Stuff Tiny Living Toddler Stuff Vintage Glamour Stuff
Steps: How can we find the bug ourselves? By playing the game?
What happens when the bug occurs? When I am playing, I will give my sims a command and they just stand around not doing anything or they just dismiss it and do something else. For example, I will tell my sim to potty train or feed her toddler, she picks him up and then puts him back down right away and go do something else or the action will just stay in queue and she'll just be standing around not moving.
What do you expect to see? I expect my sims to complete the prompted action, especially when their need is in the red and I'm trying to have them remedy it.
Have you installed any customization with the game, e.g. Custom Content or Mods? Yes
Did this issue appear after a specific patch or change you made to your system? Neutral/Not Sure 

I have tried repairing my game in Origin and also tried moving my Sims 4 folder out of Electronic Arts and start a new game, then move back my most recent save and CC back in the newly created folder, still having the same issue. I also haven't been able to report to EA, only got the option to post here.

  • @Carosim93 So.. I wasn't quite sure from your description, have you tried this without any mods/cc to see if the problem persists? If you haven't, please check first without any mods/cc installed.
  • I must have missed it or misunderstood that part, i hadn't done that. I tried it without CC and it seems to work ok, I put my saves and CC back in and my adult sim is still frozen in place. Does that mean I need to delete all of my CC or is there a way to fix this?
