[LS] Serenade causes uninitiated romantic when target sim leaves multisim chat

Serenading is glitching when sims are in a conversation and another sim starts serenading one of the sims involved in the conversation and if the sim that is the target of the conversation leaves the area, the sim doing the serenade continues serenading and the serenade bleeds over to the next available sim and this causes an uninitiated romantic relationship to develop. 

The odds of this happening are greatly increased when dealing with sims that can move very quickly, most especially noted by me in the case of vampires, 

Last night Caleb and Morgan were standing in the bathroom talking when Caleb's daughter comes in and starts serenading Morgan. Then Morgan rushed off somewhere and Alaina continued the serenade for a few moments and the next thing I know Caleb is reacting in a romantic way. I checked Alaina's relationship panel and sure enough, it now shows Caleb as a romantic interest for her. The serenade bleed over should not happen with any sims but it is even more distasteful that it can bypass family relationship protections and cause this to happen to a father and daughter. Not sure what happened to my screenshot for this but I promise I have described it exactly as it happened.

Prior to this, on a vacation to Granite Falls, Caleb is with his sister and her boyfriend and they were all sitting around the campfire talking when Lilith's boyfriend started to serenade her. Suddenly she jumps up to go check on her child and the serenade redirected to Caleb and the romance satisfaction popped up and you can see in the screenshot how the boyfriend was now a romantic interest. Lilith came back quickly and when the boyfriend kissed her Caleb lost it, slapping him so many times like I have never seen before. That is when I took him in the house and took this screenshot. 

There have been many other instances of this happening  I didn't realize why it was happening and so I did not capture any information. I will update with examples as they occur. 

There are no NAPs or anything contributing to this as I have NAPs disabled. It is simply a serenade bleeding over to the closest sim available when the sim that was the target of the serenade leaves the area.

All packs up to AA, never CC and this happens with or without UI Cheats installed. That is the only mod that I use on occasion.

  • Just noticed that I have a typo in the title. If "romantic" could be updated to "romance" it would be appreciated. I will be more careful going forward.
