My sim with autonomy off for selected sim will continue to queue their own interactions or actions and sometimes even cancel the interactions I already have queued

@crystalcoetzee19 Do other option settings save if you change them ? What kind of interactions are you getting ? Anything ? Does the Sim have low needs ?

Could you please enter your game version ?

hi my game version is 1.59.73.1220

my setting saves correctly, I even tried unticking it and playing awhile and toggling the setting again but it made no difference. The sims need won't to be low enough to trigger autonomy, it's random sometimes it's cleaning, watching tv or talking to another sim.

@crystalcoetzee19 I tested this in my game and my Sim is just standing around as she should (she did some talking to another Sim but as he's the nanny, it might have been just him initiating the talk).

Did you test with a new Sim when you made a new save ? Does it happen with any Sim ?

This one is a bit similar although it's more of a need issue: https://answers.ea.com/t5/Bug-Reports/NEEDS-INPUT-Sims-take-care-of-needs-when-yellow-although/td-p/...

@crystalcoetzee19 Moving this to tech issues for further troubleshooting and info

has this been sorted? cos im having the same issues and my game is almost unplayable cos my sim just cuts off to do whatever it wants mainly cooking cake or programming.. its rather frustrating 

[crinrict]

@Lethis42 OP never came back so I don't know.

There's currently this issue though if you have NAPs and the Eco pack: https://answers.ea.com/t5/Bug-Reports/NEEDS-INPUT-Active-Sims-interrupt-current-interaction-to-do/m-...

Any updates on this issue? I'm having the same problem after the last update, NAPs are turned off already. No CC or mods. Autonomy for selected sim was previously turned off, but then it turned itself back on and now the function doesn't work at all even when the box is unchecked.

[crinrict]

@hankepanky The NAP issue should be fixed.

Are you using AVAST ?
