I'm hesitant to say that it's my computer specs causing me problems, although I have not CFF'd any extra memory towards the game, as I was under the impression that it wasn't necessary. Just throwing it out there that it's not just stone age computers that seem to be having problems. I'll document it more thoroughly next time it happens, instead of just resetting them all. I didn't know there were other people experiencing anything like this until checking this thread, so I assumed it had been a mod conflict of some kind.
Do you have many mods installed? I've never had that problem in Bridgeport and I have very few mods besides AM.
I think the people who do have this problem should post all relevant information, maybe a link will become apparent.
Since you already have my specs, I'll only update with this info:
EPs: WA, AMB, LN
No Stuff Packs
Mods: AM + conf, MasterController, Overwatch, SolaceInSound's X5 Lifetime Happiness Elated Gain
And some CC: clothes, hair styles, furniture, etc - all merged together.

The next time I see this happen in my game, I will document it further. I'll add one of the sims to my household and see if it is a particular action they are stuck on, something I hadn't bothered to check. Unfortunately it doesn't happen very often so it might be a while before I am able to give any more information. I also haven't played any other neighborhood than Bridgeport so I can't tell you if it has happened in any other neighborhood.
Just wondering additionally, if I am the only person who has had multiple sims actually die during this error? As it only occurs on my the steps of my sims place of work, I usually notice it when my sim goes into work and pauses to mourn the many bodies. Also is there any way I can check what processes/files my game is accessing? Perhaps if there is I can check to see if my game is shitting any particular kind of brick at the time.
Hmm, I don't know if any Sims died in my game, as I didn't check. And out of the two sims I actually checked up on, only one of them was actually stuck on an action, the other was just standing there.

Were they standing at your active sim's place of work? Or were they stuck somewhere else? I am going to attempt to retrace my steps and see if I can force them to bug again. But mine is reliably behind city hall, which is where my sim works. If they weren't where your sim works, were they at venues that an active sim had recently visited? In your awesomemod config, do you have >NoCommunityStalkerSwarm enabled or disabled?
I have that feature disabled, so that community lots aren't derelict and empty when I go to visit them. I'm wondering if these sims aren't attempting to zergswarm my sim for some reason, and are caught standing outside his place of work even when he's not there? I'm curious now, so I'm going to see if I can test this and see if that is what could be happening.

No, they weren't hanging around their work place. As detailed in my first post (screenshots included), they all hang around Bridgeport Sports Zone. My AM enables swarms; however, I don't think my sims had ever visited that bar before - I don't think I've ever even looked inside that bar. Scratch that, I think my sim visited that bar when she was single and about 1-2 week old YA (I play with long lifespans). Anyway, after her boyfriend moved in, they usually went to Eugi's, The Grind and that bar next to the criminal workplace.

Hmm. Then my theory is most likely proven wrong, and I'm back to not having a clue why it's happening. I haven't been able to recreate the glitch again, it only seems to happen when I'm not expecting it so. I'll just wait until I have more information on it before bothering to theorycraft another explanation.

Mhmm, I had also never noticed any sims hanging around the bar before. I think I only noticed a sim hanging around there, for a really long period, about a simweek (or less) before I finally used radar all and saw how big this error was.
