Hi, I'm experiencing a major performance issue that seems to affect a lot of players (I asked my community and many confirmed having the same problem). When I first launch the game, everything runs...

Photo shows sim Asleep at lower left - but the sim is Awake and standing in the bathroom.
Left side Action Queue shows "sleep" at the top and "use toilet" at the bottom with autonomous conversations in between. I gave the actions to use toilet and sleep. Other actions are Auto. I am stressing that point because recently my Player actions are constantly deleted or being overwritten by the game autonomy actions in queue.
Sim has multiple needs tanking. The sim lag where they stop, frozen, does not stop the clock.
Needs continue to drop while the sims are frozen in lag. With lag, the actions I direct for needs are slowed so much that I can't get the sim to act causing red bars.
Sometimes all sims in the household freeze.
Other times only 1 or 2 sims freeze while other household members are moving and performing actions.
