The refrigerator door won't close.

@Mazikeen Thanks for the video. I’ve been having a similar problem since the update. The closet doors won’t close, and the refrigerator doors or the dishwasher won’t open :thinking:. The animation plays, but the doors don’t work.

Those aren’t the only broken animations I’ve noticed since the update. Fridge, Oven, Dishwasher, Chairs no longer pull out, when boxing the boxing bad stays at an angle even when done and walking away, outhouse doors no longer open they walk right thru the wall… etc..

My closet door and refrigerator door wont open or close at all.
Chair animation either wont work (pulling/pushing) or lag behind by a second or 2.
No sound/light when putting/removing leftover from fridge.
No animation playing with a beach ball.
Someone reported no animation on a pool table.
… and many many more.

This new interaction glitch and the constant cleaning —sometimes three times in the same spot— and then the next Zoi comes running over and wants to clean that spot three times too, while the first Zoi runs to the bathroom for the xxxxth time to clean the bathtub. The main task of my Zois in every household is simply to constantly run through the house with a broom, a scrub brush, or a vacuum cleaner.

And now this interaction bug has been added on top. I’ve uninstalled mods, reinstalled them, removed the undeleted files, and so on and so forth. The bug persists. Unfortunately, I’ve now reached a point where my enthusiasm for the update and continued disregard for error messages — such as the cleaning error in inZoi— seem to fall on deaf AI ears/eyes.

Animation bugs have nothing to do with mods. :slightly_smiling_face:

I have never used mods in my game and the animation bugs are riddled throughout.

It seems like we’re not getting any attention at all. Anyway, since the update, I’ve been sticking to building and doing very little gameplay.

Have the animations issues still not been resolved? :frowning:

No, I started a new game specifically for testing with new families. Normally, I replace all the buildings in every world, create separate families for each household, and play on a rotation basis. I didn’t do that this time, and here, too, my family members are constantly running around vacuuming and doing other chores. This issue hasn’t been addressed either, but the fact that animations aren’t working now has taken away all the fun of the game (except for building). That was the cherry on top of the cake.

Instead of focusing on individual game crashes they should focus on these bugs. I’m not experiencing any game crashes.

Then you’re lucky.
I had 2 crashes from 0.1.0 to .0.6.X
I’ve had 6 crashes(!!!) since 0.7.2

But even with those crashes, those animation bugs and broken need recuperation/depletion of the need bars (both core issues) i’d rather they fix the latter 2.

Cross your fingers.

However other errors are very annoying. Animation errors, graphic errors… I experience these a lot.

@Samuriko I’ll keep my fingers crossed for you.

@Mazikeen I completely agree with you :+1: Maybe some lags are related to the animations, because when a Zoi sits down on a chair, the Zoi’s movement plays out but the chair doesn’t move. Or the chair moves much later, when the Zoi has long since stood up again to leave the room. As soon as a meal is placed in the oven, the Zoi performs the correct actions and the oven light turns on, but the oven door won’t open. Anyway, let’s hope that inZoi Ki reads this thread and the devs focus their efforts to fix bugs (as promised).

Here’s another example. The basketball lies on the floor like a rock and doesn’t move a millimeter.

I’ve also noticed the squat rack animation ends (the bar returns to the rack) before the Zoi finishes the exercise lol. All of the sudden my Zois be squatting with no bar.

Also noticed the toilet seat will not animate properly, it seems that most interact objects are having this same issue. They’re not triggering correctly.

I never encountered this bug but then I played from another PC for some days last week. This was a way less performant PC than my normal one and here I also had this, especially with the fridge doors not closing. Now back at my normal PC this does not happen.

So seems to be random or could it have something to do with PC performance?

Thanks for your post, Ella. I don’t think this has anything to do with performance issues in this case. Everything worked flawlessly before the updates were installed. It looks to me like there’s a delay in processing requests for actions. Like in the example with the chair—sometimes it doesn’t move at all, or it moves with a delay. When opening the refrigerator or using the oven, Zoi performs the action and the lights in the refrigerator or oven turns on, but the doors don’t move. Or take the example with the ball. Zoi acts as if he’s dribbling the basketball, even though the ball stays on the floor.

My doors wont close but dishwasher wont open either
