Did this issue appear after a specific patch or change you made to your system? Presumably after most recent patch as I was trying to play through the current event (Lost Legacies - I had arrived at the Library Archive and the next task was to hack a computer, when everything stopped).

Please describe the patch or change you made. 

I tried saving and exiting and coming back on a different day. When I opened my game and it loaded, the Sims were still stuck. I clicked 'repair game' on EA, but again, the Sims were still stuck when I re-entered the game.
