When my Sims start a chat with someone and a chair/bench is nearby they obsessively walk there to sit down and continiue the chat. It's very unnecessary and wasting time. It usually happens in smaller rooms. Sometimes when there is a routing issue the animation glitches and the Sim will teleport/flip into a sitting position, then teleport back to their original position after completing the chat, only to walk the rest of the way and sit down properly. I don't know how to screenshot this. This bug started with the latest updates and it's very bothersome.

Hi Lola_Spark
could you record a short video and upload that ?
Is this about the reset and teleportation or more that they switch seats to cheat (there's should still be an open thread for Musical Chairs)

Hello, recording it didn't work out since the video resolution is awful and this glitch happens so quickly, but I've managed to get a good photo of the glitch and added it to my post above. When Luna Villareal (on the right) attempts to hug Hilary Laurent (left) she glitches into a chair which is already occupied by a friend, so both Sims overlap on the same chair. It's not a musical chairs bug since the chairs aren't being switched during conversation. It's more about Sims sitting down unnecessarily to chat, even if chairs are far away and they'll have to go into a different room to sit down instead of wrapping up their conversation standing.

To me it sounds like a combination of the hugging animation issue:
https://forums.ea.com/idea/the-sims-4-bug-reports-en/sims-hug-with-arms-backwards/12576449 and Sims just teleporting around and less with them actually trying to sit down all the time but I could be wrong of course.
Currently checking with a Community Manager how they want to track this.
