Sim won't stop skipping

<< < (5/6) > >>

seelindarun:
Shouldn't all sims have a 'go here' option?  I think roberte has tight pants. ::)

Zazazu:
In the past, I have had sims stuck on "run". This has only occurred with children directly after they grow up. As far as I can recall, it has happened since basegame without hacks. The condition usually corrects itself once the sim goes off-lot. If this issue is similar, I would suggest taking the sim off-lot and seeing if they reset back to a default walk.

Usually there is a pie menu option to "go here", "skip here". or "run here."
This particular sim only skips.

This implies to me that the pie menu does not include other options besides skip for this sim.  If that is the case, the sim may be borked.  The Zazazu offworld travel method might snap the sim out of it. (I've seen the running bug as well, but never with a loss of pie menu options)

Actually, since adding the new games I hadn't added anything to my downloads folder so the only elements that were added were what the new games added. Previously to adding them the sim performed with no problems.

...which implies that n00berte has installed a new EP and not replaced hacks and CC.  Hence tight pants. 

Have you removed your Downloads and tested yet, n00berte?

roberte:
Jolrei.

The pie menu has  "go here", "skip here" and "run here" all available.

No, I have yet to try removing my download folder and trying it. I will today.

I think the suggestion to try cloning my sim and replacing the problem one might be a feasible solution but I have to try that today as well. However it would be good to know as many reasons why this behavior occurs just for info.

I Thank everyone who has contributed toward this end.

It should be noted that sims that have less than 6 in the Lazy/Active bar will NEVER run.


Actually, I've found that lazy sims will often run if their energy motive is between 3/4 and full. It's not consistent, but it can be helpful in the mornings for the carpool/bus shuffle. Also, if you're encouraging a lazy sim to be active, you only need to get him somewhere between 5 and 6 points for "Run Here" to show up on his pie menu.
