Ideas
I came back to a household I hadn't played in a while and immediately my couple who are engaged and who I left happy are unsatisfied in their relationship. Then they autonomously started a fight during a happy conversation. I built their relationship back up from a full red friendship bar and it happened a second time and ruined their relationship again.

Could you please provide the following information
- Are you using mods/cc in your game ? Please remove them and test without them if you do.
- What platform are you playing on (PC, Mac, Playstation, XBox)- knewlin094 months agoNew Spectator
I've tested without them and I'm using a Mac.

Thanks
To be sure, it's not during an event like this thread: Sims autonomously fight during events | EA Forums - 12501755 ?
Do you have any NAPs active ? Which world is your family living in ?

In both a new save and a legacy save I've found sims are autonomously fighting more than before the most recent update, to the point of it being excessive.
It looks to be sims are just autonomously choosing violence with no provocation, it is funny however just a bit excessive.A random townie turned up to my lot, I introduced myself then, the sims ended up autonomously fighting. My Sim also had a fight with her neighbour, I've attached their traits to show they do not have any negative traits or sentiments. I've also noticed townies randomly fighting when my sim is out in the world, it is also happening during goaled events and to family members with no previous negative sentiments or traits.
Unsure if this is also related to the sabotage action being available for sims without the relevant traits or events, but thought it best to report.The fights are also not counted towards the sims stats even though the sim gets confident or dazed moodlet. Its also happening with and without Mods installed, Only Mod being used was the updated MCC however have since reverted this and the issue is still happening. I do not play with CC.
Running Version 1.118.242.1030 DX11
I don't own all the packs and I have added a screenshot of the ones I do have. Let me know if there is any other information that would be helpful. - classybananasala4 months agoSeasoned Hotshot
I haven't had this autonomously with sims in my household, so I don't know if it's related, but sims also have the option to fight even if the conversation is pleasant and they have a good relationship.
If it's been happening more since the last patch it's likely related to the sabotage / swipe objects bugs?

I just had this in my vanilla (no mods or cc - mods folder fully removed to be safe) test save. Two sims that had maxed friendship (no romance) were having a friendly conversation and then autonomously had a fight... and then autonomously started flirting after the fight was over.
Like the last reply, I'm seeing the fight option available on Sims with full friendship bars. There's no event going on nor any NAPs like Free Love or Roughhousing Encouraged.
I'm playing on MacOS. - lilspark144 months agoSeasoned Novice
This is happening in my save as well. It's a long-legacy (2+ years old) save and does make for some great story telling, but it's upsetting to see my patriarch get in a fight with his long time best friend, now spouse, out of no where and their entire relationship blow up because of it.
Playing on PC in Oasis Springs without Eco Lifestyle (so no active NAPs).
Three separate fights broke out between different members of my household and their long-time friends.

Yesterday was my first time playing since the last update and out of nowhere my Sim was fighting with his visitting sister. They had a great relationship and it went all the way down. I thought maybe one of them was buggy but at school (different neighborhood) my Sim got attacked out of nowhere too. I'm on Windows and use mods, I've found a mod fix and it stopped.

This has been happening to me too. No NAP's that include fighting, not fight day, relationships with compatible ppl who are attracted to one and otherwise happy - just start arguing and doing mean interactions and then physically fighting until they divorce. No matter how much I focus on getting them back on track - they fight again! I don't use any mods or CC but have all of the EPs.
I've had the excessive arguing happen before but it built up more gradually over time and was easy enough to fix if I spent time focusing on the relationship again for a bit. But it's gotten seriously out of control lately.
I spend two full days getting my most recent couple back up to least not red friendship bar and then I took my eye off them for a second, physically fighting, all the way red again! It feels futile to play any couples or relationships at this point.

The same thing has been happening to me in Del Sol Valley. I have a married couple that has full friendship and romance bars that will randomly fight, despise each other after and then still be flirty.
