I've noticed something odd recently. For some reason, vampires seem to obsessively want to wash their hands ALL the time. Yes, even with a green hygiene bar. I do not see this occurring with human Sims, just vampires. I haven't played with vampires in a while, so I can't pinpoint exactly when this started happening, but I do know that vampires weren't always this drawn to washing their hands.

My vampire ALWAYS washes her hands. She'll leave a conversation mid speech to wash her hands.

I also had a vampire who washed his hands all the time. It was never a huge problem, I always just considered it a quirk. But it was a little odd, as he would stop actions to wash his hands ALL THE TIME.

Mine will wash their hands about as much as they will check their phones if they have nothing to do.

I noticed it too. They do it in the middle of conversations, when carring for toddlers, after woohoo, sometimes they even stop the woohoo to go wash hands.
