[BH] Sim constantly doing 'Prank toilet' interaction

Now, he always only toilets mischief. His only Autonomous behavior is toilets mischief. Even when he's hungry, he doesn't take any Autonomous behavior to eat. No matter how many times I delete his actions, he keeps taking the action to toilets mischief. This happens not only with playable characters, but also with NPCs. I saw him at a bar and he was setting up pranks in all the restrooms. He's never done this before.
This didn't happen at least three months ago, so something might have happened in the recent update. I think the nuisance customer flag in Business & Hobbies is a problem.
He's one of my favorite Sims, so I absolutely cannot delete him. I'm really struggling with not being able to play with my family with this Sim. Please fix this soon.

His traits are as follows:
Creative, Bookworm, Perfectionist, Neat, SelfAssured

Note by crinrict

After some testing, I found that the Sim has a commodity for the small business prankster. Removing that stops the autonomy behavior of pranking the toilet. 

I suspect, it got stuck on the Sim from when he was a disruptive customer but I havent' done any testing on the cause.

 

Note from EA_Solaire:

    Thank you for always following me.
    Apologies for the poor writing. NPC = the guy exhibiting problematic behavior this time. He continued to mess with the toilet mischief not only when playable, but also when he appeared as an NPC.
    So far, he is the only one who has been confirmed to exhibit this problematic behavior. He has a family, but his other family members do not exhibit this behavior.
    He exhibits the same behavior in worlds other than his home, so the world does not seem to be related.
    This is the only autonomous behavior.
    NAP is not actively taking place on his lot. At the moment, it is only taking place in Evergreen Harbor. By the way, the following are taking place, so we believe it is unrelated.
    Clean Energy Production, Eco-Friendly Appliances, Green Initiatives and Modern Development.

  • Hi UYAMAYU​ 

    You say it's also NPCs but talk about a specific Sim mostly. Do other Sims you control not do it ?

    Is this the only auto mischief behavior or the only autonomous behavior ? 

    Do you have any NAPs active in your neighborhood and does it also happen on other lots ?
