Sim not responding immediately task/action

Ever since my game was updated to the 7/23 patch, my game is unplayable. CAS works just fine, and build buy mode works just fine as well. Then when you go to actually play the game all my sims are just frozen in place or they're constantly dancing to no music. This has happened before with a previous patch and I remember it taking weeks to be resolved.

my game was fine before this but it updated and now its broken. this happened before i think with infants and the laundry pack was what was doing it, but i dont know what it could be now

same, I thought it was only me. They just stand around dancing or having a casual discussion. They don’t do anything I tell them

I recently noticed I'll have about 4 sims who just stand around when loading into a restaurant venue lot. The staff will go to their assign jobs but my playable NPC's won't do anything on the lot. I thought they fixed restaurants but my game was working better before these recent Lovestruck patch updates. I tried to see if an autonomy mod would help in the meantime until they fix the issue but that's not working. 

my game is completely unplayable, sims won't move and nothing's working on them:((

hi! i'm experiencing the same issue, have you find a solution for this? :( 

i completely forgot i posted this!!! i redownloaded it and it seems to be working, its like for some people updates just completely break the game, because i have two different things to play on and it was only broken on one. its always been one update breaks it then the next one fixes it, but it doesnt happen to everyone? i dont really know the cause but the only thing that works is whenever it updates again. annoying because i dont know if it will happen again!!

Having the same issues among a few other things since last update.

After the latest update my sims have been unable to route to anything. I can select an object or action for them to do. For example, I can tell my sim to use a workout machine, the skill bar appears above their head, however, the sims themselves immediately freeze in place, not routing to the object or performing the animation, they are unable to do any other action and the current action persists in their queue and does not stop until I shift-click reset them. This does not resolve the issue however, it only stops the current and queued actions. If I were to queue another action the same thing happens. This has happened with every interaction I've attempted.
I did have CC and mods in my game before the patch. I had removed all script mods prior to relaunching my game. Since the issue has begun, in an attempt to resolve it, I have removed ALL mods from my game, deleted the localthumbcache file, repaired the game, made a new save, and the issue still persists.
I don't know what to do at this point, please help.

Edit By Crinrict: Adjusted Title

I have a teenage sim building a school project and he's got to level 3 art so far but the project box is still unopened in front of him and he's just sitting there staring at it.

His twin brother is making apple jam and he's got to level 3 cooking but the ingredients on the chopping board are untouched and he's just standing there staring at them.

Their mother is fishing, and she's catching fish, and their other teen brother is playing violin with emotion and I think he's acting normally, but these two are not. They're not completely frozen in that they are sort of swaying in place, but that project box isn't going to get him performance at school just sitting there unopened!

It looks like the same bug that sometimes when you tell a child sim to make a drawing at the craft table, they just sit there at the table gaining creative skill but not actually progressing their drawing at all. I can't find that bug report now but I've seen that happen in my games a few times now. I know that the immediate fix is to leave the lot and come back, but that's really annoying when it means that every sim who was doing what they were meant to be doing - including the sleeping infant - will be somewhere else doing something else when I get back.

I would like this bug to not happen, please. When I tell a sim to do something, I expect them to do that thing.

Never modded or cc, on PC, lots of dlc but not the most recent stuff.
