Sims randomly change seats during conversations (Musical Chairs)

I’m sorry if a similar thread already exists. I searched for it but couldn’t find one.

This is a very old bug. Sims start switching seats during conversations. Sometimes they just get up from their seat and sit back down again. If they’re on a community lot, a group of Sims who came together may end up sitting at different tables and shouting to each other across the entire room.

No mods, no CC, all the expansions installed. PC.

    This is an old and annoying bug. I hate it when sims, who were sitting next to each other, change seats so one sim has their back to the sim they are trying to talk to. It's worse when they are in groups. Another one is when they are eating and have to get up multiple times to hug one another. 

    PC. No mods, no CC. All packs, except last one and some kits. 

  • It's really annoying, especially when you're trying to get everyone to sit at the same table.

  • I actually had a thread about this also called musical chairs and they said they fixed it a couple of patches ago. I think they potentially maybe fixed a part of the problem but I think there exists another part where I feel Sims need to sit down to start a new interaction such as a conversation. I told my child to go do homework and he walked to the couch to sit down on the couch first then he got up and went to the kitchen table to actually do his homework.

    So I agree I think this still exists. 🗳️
