Ideas
The Sim that was an adult Fairy, I removed the Fairy molecule in CAS, and had him turned into a Vamp by Vlad. The Sim was able to clean and cook before turning, but after becoming a full vampire, the Sim was cooking a Grand Breakfast with another Sim, but stopped in the middle of it being on the stove. I tried to resume it, but the pathing error pop-up over the Sim showed up with the Sim throwing up hands.
The other Sim was able to finish with the Grand Breakfast.
The newly Vampirized Sim had the same problems the other ones did, with taking the trash out of the garbage can and dropping it onto the floor/return it to the can from the floor. The other Sim was able to pick up the trash from the can and take it outside.
(Edit: I tried another dish, using joint cooking to make the Fish Dinner. The main Sim took the package from the kitchen to the fireplace mantle. I clicked on the package to see if the Sim would use it or just put it back on the mantle. The Sim flew to the kitchen as a bat, stayed there for a while and then flew back to the package, and returned to the kitchen to finish the dish (without asking the second Sim to join in cooking.)
(Edit 2: I added more countertops, and the two Sims were able to complete the cooking of the Grand Breakfast. I've ordered a pizza the game night before, and a couple plates were next to the pizza box. The Vamp Sim picked up the pizza box, but dropped down on the floor as a pile of garbage.
Trying to pick up the garbage, the Sim would just drop it back down the ground with the Pathing warning popping up. Picking up the dishes resulted in the Sim putting them back down as a pile on the dining room table. The second Sim was able to pickup the dishes and take them to the nearby bathroom sink to wash. And that Sim was able to take the garbage from the dining room near the door to the porch to the garbage can across the house, without myself dragging the garbage closer to the trash can.
I wanted to see if the Vamp Sim was able to take it from the can to the bin, but it dropped it soon after taking out of the trash.)
You have so many factors there that could play a role so I'm a bit unsure what to do with this report.
- Issues with moving as bat
- Left over fairy occult stuff from changing the occult in CAS
