Re: My sims won't move or do anything

★★★ Guide
  • Kids/teens going to school
  • Teens doing homework autonomously.

I have two kids that go to school 5 days each week. Or I try to have them go to school because half the time they dont go on their own or in time. They just dont cancel their current activity on their own. Same with work. I have to do it myself if I see the red blinking icon on their avatars in the lower left.

 

And autonomously doing homework? That happend a handfull of times with THREE children. Maybe fix that?

On one or two of the occasions when it happened, I do believe my teen was doing her homework, however I don't believe she was doing her homework, or that anyone was on their way to school, every time it happened.  I can't remember exactly what they were doing, but it seems to happen when at least a few family members are gathered in the kitchen or sitting at the kitchen table most of the time.

 

I really wish I'd thought to take a screen shot that last time, when my game froze completely, but I didn't think of it.

When it happens next, check all your Sims and see what they are doing.

 

You can try pressing ESC and canceling interactions.

What I did was I went to build mode and had move objects on. Then, I put a piece of furniture right where my sim was, and the Sims would automatically move the sim somewhere else... After that, I went back to live mode and my sim started following me again!

I had to force restart my computer, Windows 10 had to install updates and slowed everything down. After the forced restart, Origin installed a much needed update. Seemed to help my issues, thus far.
