Ideas
The Getaway System introduced in Adventure Awaits includes a custom role-assignment feature that lets you assign NPCs custom functions (for example: DJ, Bar attendant, ) to staff a custom venue. NPCs assigned through this feature in custom venues are not using their assigned stations (DJ booth, Espresso Bar from Get Together or Tea Bar from High School Years). Instead they perform other autonomous actions.
Steps to reproduce:
Create a custom venue using the Getaway System.
Use the Getaway System's custom role/staff assignment feature to assign NPCs to roles (e.g., DJ, attendant for Bars).
Place the relevant objects on the lot: DJ Booth, Espresso Bar (Get Together), Tea Bar (High School Years).
Load the venue and observe the assigned NPCs’ behavior.
Expected: Assigned Sims should autonomously use the DJ booth or bar and perform their role.
Actual: Assigned Sims ignore the station and act autonomously.
Additional details:
No mods or custom content installed (100% vanilla).
Issue observed on Mac and PC.
Affected objects: DJ Booth (station), Espresso Bar (Get Together), Tea Bar (High School Years).
Product and Pack(s) Affected:
The Sims 4 (latest patch),
Adventure Awaits Expansion Pack
Paranormal Stuff Pack
Platform: PC
Steps to Reproduce:
1. Create a new custom venue lot type with a seance table, chairs and a crystal ball.
2. Assign Attend Seance (from Paranormal Stuff Pack) as the scheduled activity.
3. Set sims to host seances (with max Medium Skill, level 5).
4. Visit the venue or host a getaway.
Expected Result:
Sims attend seances/use the seance table.
Staff members successfully host seances when assigned.
Actual Result:
Sims ignore the seance table and do not use it, even at max Medium skill.
Workarounds Tried:
Removing other activities from the schedule (no effect).
Testing with different staff Sims, different venues, and different skill levels (no change).
Notes: No CC or Mods used
