Re: [XB1/PS4] Sim won't accept queued commands

★★★ Novice

Here I am Jan 2020 and I'm still having an issue where my sims get stuck for over 3 hours game time and dont accept the commands. I dont have toddlers, so I dont know that glitch, but I have cats and dogs and at the vet clinic it takes well over 5 in game hours to get through one patient because ALL sims get stuck for numerous in game hours. I have found if I open build mode it will do one of two things. Catch the sim up to the time, or change the time back to when the sim first didnt accept the new commands. It's a guessing game as to what I will get. Its extremely frustrating.

And after posting the above reply, this mess is what's happening, one vet sim is getting stuck at the table, and another vet sim is coming to the table with a patient, and they're glitched into each other.. and they arent moving. Tried build mode, didnt work, tried manage worlds, didnt work, so now I get to wait it out and see if it changes..

And here it is June 2020, the day of the most recent update and STILL my sims won’t do a thing when I click on them and tell them to do something. EA has made a mess of this game and they refuse to fix it. It’s been 4 years and STILL this mess has not been fixed. Uninstalling. Thankfully it was free through PS Plus. Would never have bought this mess of a game. Maxis, why did you sell to such a horrible company????

Same. This patch broke my game! Now my pets randomly just flat out dissapear and my furniture vanishes before my eyes. My roommate randomly said my house didn't have what he needed and he moved out. My sim forgets how to function and just stands there or wont eat. The laundry doesnt work anymore either. I dont use mods or anything and I have every expansion/stuff pack. I love the eco expansion but its hard to place with all these damn glitches. Any idea when they'll patch it?

My sim gets food out of the fridge, or grabs a serving goes to the table and just gets stuck, wont budge, if you can get them to eat stood up it sometimes works but sometimes will just stay stood still it's so frustrating

Steps: How can we find the bug ourselves? Play a teen Sim in Britechester..
What happens when the bug occurs? My Sims live in Britechester. This only happens with my teenage Sim. She won't perform certain actions, including socializing and writing. When I try to add some actions to her queue they never appear on the queue and nothing happens. Other times they will appear in the queue and then disappear, fading out as if I had canceled them.
What do you expect to see? I expect the action to stay in my Sim's queue and my Sim to perform that action.
Have you installed any customization with the game, e.g. Custom Content or Mods? On console - never used.
Did this issue appear after a specific patch or change you made to your system? Yes
Please describe the patch or change you made. Downloaded patch 1.26 and 1.27

Please help. This makes the game unplayable.

Well it’s been 4 years or longer since the game has been out. So maybe that might answer your question. They haven’t fixed this issue since day one so it doesn’t look like they will ever fix it. They will just update the content and fix a few bugs for their newer modules they come out with and fleece the community of their money, but they won’t address the issue at hand. It IS EA after all. Thankfully it was a free game for me, so I didn’t lose any money. And I would never purchase the modules for it anyways, so I’m ok with waiting. As of right now, I have it uninstalled on my PS4 since it is completely unplayable.

What happens when the bug occurs? Sim freezes in place, unable to move, or act on other commands. This results on the sim starving to death and dying.
What do you expect to see? I would like to see my sims not freeze in place or fail to act on other commands I choose

On this session, I had a sim freeze in place, unable to move or act upon any commands I chose.  The movement and action commands scroll off the screen.  This sim stayed frozen until he starved to death and died.  The only way to resolve this is to find any and all stuck sims, and restart the game before they die.  In this video, I zoomed in to show the commands scrolling off the screen
