[NEEDS SAVES] Routing/Sit down issue on several interactions

[Gwiniel]

I don't have problems with cleaning dishes away but I have the sitting problem every time (100%) with cleaning up books or when the sim stops reading a book. They get up from their seat to lay down the book on an available surface and sits down to the nearest available seat after it. Then, when you make the sim to "put away" the book, the sim gets up from the seat and sits back down before taking the book from the surface and takes it to the bookshelf.

My "workaround" is simple - I manually put the books back with my mouse (just grab the book and move it over the bookcase so that it gets highlighted and let go). Same works with leftovers and empty dishes.. either put them in fridge or garbage bin. Less grief and wasted sim time. However, the sim still sits down every time when she/he lays down a book.

Experiencing this with put away books only.

Could you guys share your saves with QA ?

@crinrict Come to think about it I haven't seen a Sim put a book away in a long time. Only at the library where that's basically all the librarian is programmed to do. They either end up on the floor, on the dining room or coffee tables.

How does one share console save data. All I got is PS4 saves

@crinrict Thanks! Do I share the link for my video/pic in this thread then?

[crinrict]

@Bearpal64 You can post them here if you want others to see it or if you rather keep it private, you can PM one of the QA folks

Got Realm of Magic with newest update patch on console (PS4)

Sim cancels reading when I told him to do something with cauldron. Instead of putting the book on the floor or actually in the bookcase he walks past the bookcase and goes into another round room to put the book down on the dining room table and then sits down before going to do what I told him to do. I then prove that he can access the bookcase by telling him to put the book away.

Four years after it was first reported, I'm here adding my voice to the chorus of those who encounter this issue without fail in each and every play session. How is it this hasn't been resolved?

Hello.

Is anyone still seeing this (without mods/custom content) since the Nov 12 PC/Mac patch?

If so, can you share a video of what you're seeing, and/or save files?

Instructions on how to send files are here:
