Re: Sims 4: Sim won't complete actions.

★★ Novice

I'm having the same issue with my San Myshuno residents, too! Never with any of the other sims from other worlds. I don't have the same issue if I reset to factory settings. I only had a few mods to begin with, so I've removed them all. I've tried removing all my tray files, all my save files, moved them all back one at a time, different combinations, etc. Nothing has fixed the issue so far. It's frustrating, because that's where I've spent the most time building and developing households.

Re: Sims 4: Sim won't complete actions.

@NattyElaine  When you say you don't have the issue after doing a factory reset, when does it recur?  It's worth trying to run one of your existing saves in an otherwise clean Sims 4 folder, as in, do the factory reset, copy over one save, and see how it goes.  Since you're copying and pasting the save rather than dragging and dropping, you can freely experiment on the new copy while the old one remains intact.

Re: Sims 4: Sim won't complete actions.

@sandiestee  There are a number of reasons this happens.  Please start by testing a new save, for comparison: it would be useful to know whether you see the same issues.

 

If the new save is affected, please run a dxdiag and attach it to a post.

Please also describe in more detail what you're seeing, both what happens and whether there's any pattern to it.

I know that I’m a bit late to the party, but for anyone who needs more help on this, I know that if you reset your sim by typing into the cheat code box “resetSim [first name] [last name]” it resets you Sim and gets them moving again. Don’t worry, though, all their skills, job, relationships, etc will all remain the same. It just clears any bugs that are in the way of the coding.  I don’t know if it will COMPLETELY stop this from happening ever again, but I know it’s one of the fastest fixes I’ve used so far!
