Clock lag, game lag, delay until action is recognized

★★★ Apprentice

Product: The Sims 4
Platform:PC
Which language are you playing the game in? English
How often does the bug occur? Often (50% - 99%)
What is your current game version number? latest
What expansions, game packs, and stuff packs do you have installed? base game
Steps: How can we find the bug ourselves? yes
What happens when the bug occurs? it looks like the clock is bugged, the sims goes to work at night when they have work at 8 AM, looks like night got mixed with day. The other bug is that when you are clicking on objects, it takes time for game to recognize and display menu of selections or when you click on a select e.g. "take bath" it does not go into action queue, like it did not took the input. Sometimes both of these occur and the same time. Also pressing right click on sim to select it sometimes does not recognize, you have to press multiple times which basically results into wait time until its selected. Pretty annoying.
What do you expect to see? I expect for devs to take responsibility and rework how the clock works (becasue in background it looks like its lagging) and to rework autonomity, because when sim takes action, and if you cancel it, it will go to the place of the object where the action is required to be started instead of when a user cancels it, it will stop doing it, this seems to cause massive lags with input and action selection recognition. Its annoying.
Have you installed any customization with the game, e.g. Custom Content or Mods? Not now. I've removed them.
Did this issue appear after a specific patch or change you made to your system? Neutral/Not Sure

Hi @N3verShiningSun 

 

As this report contains multiple bugs and we may already have active dedicated bug report threads opened for them here "Compiled list of reported issues" this thread has been closed.

 

We currently have both issues you're reporting tracked here and here for the in-game clock and menu lag respectively.
