This is still happening to me. Mainly Strangerville but also in other worlds too.
November 2022
This just started to happen with a family I'm playing. They live in San Myshuno but they used to go jogging just fine until the latest update.
February 2023
I can also confirm that this bug is still active. Trying to get my Sim to jog in the upper plateau of Strangerville but he resets after a few seconds and is suddenly in a different outfit too.
March 2023
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? 1.96.367.1030
What expansions, game packs, and stuff packs do you have installed? All
Steps: How can we find the bug ourselves? Have a sim living in or visiting the Shady Acres neighbourhood - the one in the upper right of the Strangerville map - and try to jog.
What happens when the bug occurs? Randomly during the jogging loop around the neighbourhood, your sim will snap out of the jogging animation and reset to standing still. They even snap completely back into their everyday clothes instead of their jogging outfit, which is a strange symptom (because if this was just a T-pose style reset, the sims would still be in their exercise outfits).
What do you expect to see? Sims able to complete an uninterrupted jogging circuit around the neighbourhood and arrive back to where they started, jogging the entire way.
Have you installed any customization with the game, e.g. Custom Content or Mods? Not now. I've removed them.
Did this issue appear after a specific patch or change you made to your system? Neutral/Not Sure
This has been happening for a long time, maybe even since Strangeville came out, I just never got around to reporting it before. But today I was playing a household who lives in Strangerville and it annoyed me that none of them could properly jog around the area.
For extra info, the Strangerville storyline was completed, the mother is defeated, and the neighbourhood status is normal, no bizarre plants or possessed sims exist.
