Product: The Sims 4
Platform:PC
Which language are you playing the game in? English
How often does the bug occur? Every time (100%)
What is your current game version number? n/a
What expansions, game packs, and stuff packs do you have installed? All except Parenthood, Dine Out and Fitness Stuff
Steps: How can we find the bug ourselves? play a household that lives on Windenburg Island
What happens when the bug occurs? Sims are constantly walking past my lot
What do you expect to see? The island used to be deserted, so no sims would walk by the lot.
Have you installed any customization with the game, e.g. Custom Content or Mods? Yes
Did this issue appear after a specific patch or change you made to your system? Yes
Please describe the patch or change you made. It started happening after I installed Seasons.
I'm not sure if this is a bug, but it has ruined my historical saves and I can no longer play them. There is a thread on the official forums about this as well. https://forums.thesims.com/en_US/discussion/943324/seasons-on-winderberg-island#latest
Solved! Go to Solution.

Fixed an issue in which non local Sim Townies would spawn in Windenburg’s Island, now named The Crumbling Isle.
○ As much as Windenburgians (Windenburgers? Windenburguese? Windenburglites?) love visitors from other worlds, they have voted them off the Island. Sorry, not sorry!
Fixed in Patch 1.63.133/ Console 1.25
Seems it's still occurring. New thread here: https://answers.ea.com/t5/Bug-Reports/NEEDS-INPUT-GT-Walkbys-on-Windenburg-Island-Patch-1-63-133/td-...
Good Luck

There is an island in Windenburg?

I actually prefer having walkby sims in the background in all neighbourhoods, including the Island. I doubt it’s a bug, because each neighbourhood has its own walkby director which lists allowed sims at each time of day. Each new pack also adds to the various types of walkby, such as vampire walkbys, Seasons holiday walkbys, fishing people walkbys, etc.
