Ridiculous 'follow' obsession

(1/11) > >>

Sivany:
My toddlers are driving me mad. I don't know what's changed in my game but previously my toddlers were quite happy to autonomously play with the toys provided for them and only occasionally went to harrass the adults in the household. I always played with nobabyharrassment, but not the baby controller.

Now suddenly my toddlers seem to be obsessed with 'following' their parents around the house. Everytime I cancel the action it just comes back and they will only play with the toys if I literally lock them in the nursery. I've tried replacing nobabyharrassment with TJ's nobabytoddlerswarming in case this helped but it didn't.

Since my playstyle involves allowing sims to choose what skills they learn I hate having to direct them into using a specific toy, but this follow thing is driving me insane. I'm sure it never used to happen. Does anyone know how to stop it?

J. M. Pescado:
Install and deploy the baby controller. Problem solved. Otherwise, use APO to lock the nursery against babies so that they are unable to leave without impeding anyone else from entering or leaving as needed. We are not interested in creating a product to address an already resolved issue merely because you refuse to use the existing solutions. All Sivanys suck.

Sivany:
Heh ok I guess I asked for that. I didn't think of APO, I shall start using it immediately on nurserys. I guess my toddlers are doomed to not see any other parts of the house until they become children.

What was really puzzling me was why this had only just started happening. As I said previously they didn't have this obsession with following their parents around and rarely did it. I was wondering if I was the only one or if FT somehow altered this behaviour (unlikely, I know, since no one else here as mentioned this, I suppose it could be a weird hack conflict instead).

J. M. Pescado:
I doubt it. More like it's EAxian autonomy stupidity. Why would toddlers NEED to see any other part of the house? It's not like any other objects are even toddler interactable.

jolrei:
I keep toddlers in the barracks section, preferably on an upper floor of the house.  This secludes them nicely from adult sims who have other things to do downstairs.  They are very happy to chew on their crayons and pull the ears off the pink bunny all day then.
