No matter what I do, painting, bathing the babies, simply bringing them over to bathe, picking them up, walking inside a house, they cancel it or complain that they can’t walk there when they absolutely can. I have to manually click on different areas of the floor and make them walk into a house or go up the stairs or else they complain that they can’t get there.

This is not an infrequent issue I have where there's plenty of room but my sim refuses to walk. I wanted to make my sim go to the dresser on the other side of the bed, but they kept insisting the bed was in the way. I moved the clothing wrack and then it was the ottoman that was in the way--all of this despite there being a one full square of space all around the bed. Once I took the clothing wrack and ottoman, the sim went to the designated spot but refused to interact with the houseplant that was perfectly within reach so I moved it.
I included this as EbN as well as BG because I'm not sure if these items could be the cause or something else. I'm sure a lot of other folks have routing issues that are similar with different builds, backs, and BG so I hope this can be looked into.
EA App. No CC or mods in use.
Edit By Crinrict: Removed tags. There's no need to put a tag for Base.
Routing failures are very individual, could be the lamp, could be something on the wall.
Is vacuum happening in the same space or a separate issue ? There's an older thread here: [OPEN] [BDK] My sim won’t vacuum | EA Forums - 11479515 doesn't have a new one yet.
Best is if you upload your house to the gallery and post the name here. Maybe someone can check it.
I had this problem earlier on my PC. My sims were on vacation and they stuck in the upstairs bedroom and the ensuite bathroom. They would not walk out of the bedroom, and refused to use any items outside of that room and bathroom, also saying they could not get there. Nothing was blocking them, and I reset them multiple times. they had no problem using the items they were already using, like the shower and the bed, but they would not leave that room. Once I switched lots it was fixed for the time being.
Same issue. My adult Sims keep saying they can't get there when I try to interact with the toddler (put to bed, place in high chair, give a bath…). Restarting the game seems to fix it temporarily, but the problem comes back after a while.
I keep having this issue too on my PC game, I noticed it mostly also when I did place the enchanted by nature door to my house my sim could not walk inside again despite being able to have walked in earlier when I used another door. Also when I queu up interactions my sims suddenly decided they can not do it and cancel all interactions. I play without mods or cc on my game so it is nothing of that sort that makes the game act out. I notice it occasionally happening on the 1st of July patch that it appeared so it is partly not connected to the new hot fix patch.
Was this in Tartosa? Because one of the houses is kinda messed up and you'll have to change it to be able to leave the bedroom. Or teleport.
I was having this problem as well with Sims telling me suddenly they can no longer reach the downstairs bathroom where my toddler became trapped lol They lived there no issues for months, no edits to the house until the update (the one which came a week before EBN) decided it was going to become tricky. I had to pick up and put the door back down to get them to go through again.
The house by the way is not even one I made, it came with the pack in San Sequoia "Robles Point".
Community ManagerCancelling actions isn’t working and Sims stay doing it, having to reset object.
Sims also ignoring commands or bringing up the error they cannot get somewhere they have previously been able to with no build changes.
Could you please provide the following information
