Stupid Suicidal Sims
Georgette:
I've searched "frozen sim" "stuck sim" "not moving" etc but found no results, so I'm guessing this hasn't been mentioned before.
My sims keep getting stuck, and not moving until they reach near death. For example, I instructed one sim to have a shower, and she stood next to it, not moving for FOURTEEN sim hours, then walked off when she reached hunger desperation. I've tried to cancel these frozen interactions but nothing happens. It happens more at the gym, before school or work or when I tell a sim to shower.
Any idea why this happens? I've just installed the AwesomeMod but it's not related to that because it was happening before installation.
Silverdrake:
Do you have a slow computer? Mine haven't gotten stuck, but sometimes they stand for a bit too long waiting to change clothes. My computer is ancient, so I attribute it to texture loading.
Aquilegia:
This happens to me fairly often after a sim has aged up or acquired a different outfit--the sim can stand there for a good few hours until they spin into the new clothes (or new body in the case of bathing after having aged up). My video card is on the elderly side and I 'only' have 2 GB of RAM.
PirateFaafy:
Try checking your background tasks, and possibly going fullscreen/low resolution. My computer doesn't have too many problems with running the game for extended periods of time, despite being a humble 3-year-old laptop with only 1 Gig of ram and a 1.66 Ghz processor. I have the graphics on Crap™, but the game's running rather well.
In any case, you've finally found a way to reliably kill off the puddings. Congratulations.

Hmmm, my computer is an iMac, barely 2 years old. Could be a bit slow by sims standards though.
