Yes!! I usually don't mind the bugs, but I play with no autonomy on active sim and full autonomy on the other Sims. Up until recently, I could queue several actions on a sim and then switch to the next. Now they go do something else as soon as I switch the command from them to another Sim! I have large families of 4 and 5 and it's becoming impossible to manage!

It was especially hard to deal with when the starving toddler was commanded to eat and when I switched to someone else, the toddler would drop the food immediately. Unnerving....

I am having a similar issue.  I will set them up with tasks and when I come back to them they are doing something other than what I set them up to do, and there are NO ISSUES like routing problems that should prevent it from happening.   I also am experiencing Sims doing what I ask them to do for a second then going to do something else.   No matter how many times I put them back to do it they will stop doing it and go do something else.

If anyone's still seeing this issue could you possibly share a save file where you've seen it occur? You can DM me the link to your save, thanks so much!

This one really keeps bugging me (pun intented). When you assign a task to a sim and change to play another sim in the same household, the assigned tasks might get canceled and the sim decides to do something completely different. More likely to happen if the sim is out of your sight, outside of the screen.

Here's a link to my save game.

All Expansion packs, all Game packs and Stuff packs except Journey to Batuu. All Kits except Desert Luxe, Decor to the Max, Courtyard Oasis, Incheon Arrivals, Bust the Dust, Fashion Street, Modern Menswear.
