Sims appearing on lot after a phone call.
sara_dippity:
Perhaps this has been discussed, but I can't find it and am short on time. I have sims appearing on the lot after my resident sims finish talking to them on the phone, is this a hack that needs to be updated, or game glitch? Only noticed it after seasons, have the latest phone hack.
SnootCB:
On a related note (possible is diff version of same problem): When my sims phone someone, they don't show up, but their portrait changes as if they were on the lot- as in, they get sunburned or turn blue depending on the weather.

It has been discussed and it is a Maxis glitch. I had it in a completely vanilla game, long before I found MATY, around the time I got NL. I actually have not seen it yet since I installed Seasons, but I fully expect to.
Multiple callers backed up at the same time on cell and house phones seem to result in some of the callers teleporting onto the lot. My sims with many friends (50+), and multiple comm outings per day get lots of phone calls. Friends around 50 STR all call around 4pm, and contacts + invitations to more outings call at 6pm. As far as I can determine, it has to do with playing style. My households with fewer family friends rarely get teleporting callers.

So that's why it only happens to my popularity sims! Hmmm, you learn something new everyday.
ZiggyDoodle:
I've had that happen since I installed JM's phone hack, but it only occurs if one Sim is using a cell and other using a landline at the same time. If I cancel out the cell phone call, no popup visitor.
Given Seelindarum's claim that it's an EA glitch, I'll move out the phone hack and see if I can replicate it.
