Product: The Sims 4
Platform:PC
Which language are you playing the game in? English
How often does the bug occur? Every time (100%)
What is your current game version number? 1.50.67.1020
What expansions, game packs, and stuff packs do you have installed? All
Steps: How can we find the bug ourselves? Start the boss fight in StrangerVille. Pause the game and queue as many group commands (such as charge or take a breather) at once.
What happens when the bug occurs? All queued group commands will be executed, making the boss fight insanely easy.
What do you expect to see? Only one group command can be used once. If you queue multiple of them at once, only the first one should be executed. The rest should be dropped.
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? No
More technical explanation: the designer forgot to tune "skip_safe_tests_on_execute" on the 4 following interactions:
motherPlant_Mixers_PrimarySim_Rally
motherPlant_Mixers_PrimarySim_WarCry
motherPlant_Mixers_PrimarySim_Attack
motherPlant_Mixers_PrimarySim_Inspire
The default value for "skip_safe_tests_on_execute" is True. They should be tuned to False to prevent this boss fight exploit.
