Sorry about that! @crinrict I realized I had posted in the wrong thread and with little experience with forums I didn't think I'd have the rights to delete the old thread I made. Sorry for the bother and thanks!

I've seen this a few times in both a post-patch and Seasons save. It's quite inconsistent.

Ah. No prob. Thought you just opened a new one for weird reasons :D

EDIT: Tagging this as needs input for now to see how many people have this issue.

I have seen this many times after the patch and even in seasons ep. so I can confirm

I haven't noticed teleporting to different levels or even great distances but I have seen Sims jump! For instance they're standing in front of the kitchen sink and I click on the fridge and select 'get leftovers' and the Sim will jump to the fridge (3 counter widths) and back. But I only played for a short time in the vanilla game after updating, so maybe the game was glitching because previously that save game had some CC. Looks weird though

My Sim was supposed to go to bed on the upper floor and teleported from the ground floor. No stairs needed. I never had this problem before the newest patch.

[wobibobi]

Yeah, I'm pretty sure it's something to do with playing an animation, something will go wrong and the sims will end up all over the place in said animation, sometimes just appearing somewhere else then performing it, to just skipping it entirely, for example not walking to nearby objects, teleporting to them. Not sure if it's cc but I'm pretty sure it isn't, as I've had this going on in clean saves with no mods or cc stepping foot into them. Think it's the newest patch.

I'm seeing this a lot as well. I have no CC or Mods. I've repaired the game several times and have cleared caches. One example: A sim will go to get a plate of food from a group meal, grab a plate then teleport over to the table without the plate of food then the food plate will teleport over to them on the table. Or they will walk over to get the plate then teleport back to where they were standing before the command to get food was given.

This started happening in my game also right after the patch on a clean save file with no cc. It looks like a routing issue, to me, when multiple actions or sims are queued at once. The game will force the route and 'blink' the sims to the object or location. I'm leaning towards routing since the first time I saw the blink happen my sim did this weird circle back and around again then blinked to another room back to the object and then back to the room. I've been seeing the circling of sims a good bit since the patch and it normally precedes the blinking.
