Sims want to do things in locked rooms

★★★ Guide

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? 1.80.69.1030
What expansions, game packs, and stuff packs do you have installed? All.
Steps: How can we find the bug ourselves? Create a garden, put a fence around it, place a door, lock the door, wait for weeds to spawn, wait for sim to want to weed plants.
What happens when the bug occurs? The sim cancels its current activity to weed plants but on the way to the destination the sim cancels that because the room is locked.
What do you expect to see? Sims should not persue activities in locked rooms.
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 issue happens most of the time with gardens that are behind a locked fence, only accessible to certain sims on the lot. And the sims who cant enter occasionally want to go in there for various reasons. They interrupt whatever they are doing, walk half across the lot and then stop because they cant go into the fenced area.

 

One of those areas is a garden. One wall is a rock face, three other walls are fences. The sim treats the rock like a wall and the fence is directly connected to the rock. And the sims who can enter the area do so through the door in the fence.

 

Is the area not entirely locked so the sim thinks it accessible from a distance? Or do locked walls only have a close proximity area to keep unwanted sims out? If yes, it would explain this odd behavior.
