[BH] Sim puts finished candy on distant desk/table instead of nearest counter

Issue Description:
After a Sim is interrupted while making candy — either by resetting on their own (e.g., pathing glitch, autonomy override) or by being distracted by the first snow of the season — the Sim will finish making the candy but then place it on a desk or table in a faraway room instead of the nearest available counter. This occurs consistently across multiple saves.

Expected Behavior:
The Sim should place the finished candy on the closest empty counter (or other valid surface) in or near the kitchen, following standard object placement logic.

Steps to Reproduce:

  1. Place a candy machine on a residential lot.
  2. Have a Sim start making candy.
  3. Interrupt the Sim by either:
    • Allowing an autonomy reset (e.g., another action overrides, pathing fails briefly), or
    • Triggering the first snow of the season (Sim gets distracted by snow animation).
  4. Let the Sim finish making the candy after the interruption.
  5. Observe where the Sim places the finished candy.

Actual Result:
The Sim walks past nearby counters and places the candy on a desk, table, or other surface in a different room (sometimes upstairs or across the lot).

Additional Notes:

  • Issue happens on multiple saves (not save-specific).
  • Not yet tested with resetSim cheat — unknown if same behavior occurs.
  • Does not appear to happen when the Sim is not interrupted.
  • May be related to the game “forgetting” the original intended drop-off point after the interruption.
