Platform:PC

Steps: How can we find the bug ourselves? 1. Create a few sims without the goofball trait in a household (3 - 8 sims are preferred) 2. Make sure full autonomy is on 3. Wait until sims autonomously conversate with each other

What do you expect to see? The "Goof Around" interaction is to be available to Goofballs only.

i have the same problem. is anoying, my sims spam goof around and "ask what happened" all the time..

I really hope this will be fixed at some point soon, because this and the obsessive use of the "Ask what happened" interaction is making it impossible for me to play without mods. The constant goofing around is also making it difficult for my sims to build friendships because more often than not, it's received negatively by the other sim. I always play with full autonomy and it's really difficult to stop them from spawning this interaction when you're playing with more than one sim.
