Sims look at each other, not TV, playing video game

@JonaO703 They're either in love or intensely competitive.

Joking aside, I had a similar thing happen to me with a sim using the Research and Debate computer from DU. He had his head twisted to the side and never once looked at the screen. Like you I didn't think it was a big deal so I didn't post a report on it.

I noticed this as well since the July 20 patch.

There are 2 more things that may or may not relate to this bug:

- When Sims walk through the house, they sometimes fix their head in a sepcific direction while walking (seems like they look at a specific object while walking around, making their head turn in a way that would not be physically possible)

- Sims sleeping / napping on a bench have their head turned in a wrong way (happens just sometimes)

@Nooboosimmer Hi!  I haven't had this problem with other sims but I just noticed my active family's toddler looking away while using the wabbit tablet.  No one else is in the room with him either.

Edit: So this is weird ... the toddler looks away while playing with dolls also but his dads haven't succumbed to this bug.

When my sims go to collect the mail or submit a book or song, they're facing 90 degrees to the side of the mailbox door.

Same, especially when they use the computer. Why do these bugs keep happening

[theslowesthnery]

Same problem, with several actions the sim is looking elsewhere instead of forward as they should. Included screenshots show one of my sims using the weight machine while not facing forward, and how weird that looks.

I’ve been having the same issue playing on xbox with just the base game (no packs, expansions or mods)

i thought it was a personality thing at first because not all of them have the issue but it seems too strange a thing.

I'm having the same issue especially while my sims are doing something on computer such as studying for university, doing side job as a programmer and playing the video games.

Yep! Mine do it when on the iPad, computer, eating and exercise equipment, it sucks! Lol! 

In this image, his legs are bent the wrong way. So disturbing XD

EDIT: Now added the foot massage to the list

Same for me and not only at the computer. My doctor Sim looks sideways at her patients when she performs examinations
