@cutiemuscles If needs are low they will do tasks, that's intended.
What kinds of things are they doing ? Have you tried turning autonomy on, then save, then turn it back on again ?
Did you turn it off for everyone or just the active Sim ?
Could you please enter your game version ?

Did this issue appear after a specific patch or change you made to your system? Yes
Please describe the patch or change you made. I haven't played the game since September 2020 and did not encounter this problem prior to any updates in September. So the issue became apparent between September 2020 and presesnt
Issue I'm having are sims in my save not responding to autonomy being set to off. They still wander and perform actions as if autonomy was set to full. None of my sims had any prior actions that were still processing or waiting to be processed. I only have one save file so I can't test this on another. I have not played Sims 4 since September 2020 and did not have this issue at the time when last played. This issue became apparent sometime after September 2020 updates. There is a thread on Reddit about someone else having the same issue I am that was posted in October 2020
