Zoi's interacting with zoi's far from the lot they are on

• Game Version: 0.4.1

• Platform: Steam windows

• Mods: never used

• Details:
  Since 0.4, zoi’s occasionally somehow interact with another zoi or object that causes them to walk off of their current lot, and even void their current interaction queue list.

  I mostly see it with my zoi’s at home (in the airy house in cahaya) that one will suddenly walk down the street, sit on the bench and start conversing with another zoi. Another time, they walked across the street to the beach to meet a zoi. I actually like this interaction! It seems bugged however it initiates though - my zoi is busy with a queue of things I’ve given them to do - clean up, do laundry, cook a meal, then after the ‘clean up’ part, they decide to walk off and go have a convo with someone. But that person didn’t call them or arrange any sort of meeting, they didnt show up randomly at the house and say lets go for a walk.

  This seems to happen to adults at home mostly, but I had a child zoi hanging out at a neighbors house and she got a similar interaction where she left the lot (the neighbors place) to go talk to someone a good distance away.

  In another case one of my zoi’s was headed to work recently but decide to stop and pet a cat too. I’ve seen this exact behavior back on 0.3.x but it was pretty random, not sure if its related.

  I actually like this behavior of zoi’s being drawn to different lots if it didn’t interrupt what I had them doing, without some good reason.

I observed something similar yesterday. It was evening, and Zoi was on his home property, hungry, and very tired, and he could have gone to the bathroom. But instead of choosing one of those options, he wanted to “sniff a plant.” I thought I’d let him if he really wanted to. So he ran out of the house, crossed two streets, and went to smell a plant in the gym that I’d never interacted with before. I didn’t find it disturbing, just curious. I have SmartZoi activated, but the Zoi in the game has absolutely no connection to plants.

I’m not sure if 0.4 is when this started, but as of some recent patch zoi’s like to run down the street and talk to others off the home lot. This would be okay if it weren’t so harshly implemented. Its constant. When you combine this with other bugs like it taking hours to eat a meal on a 4hr timescale, this is what an unattended zoi’s action queue looks like. I was paying attention to my other zoi fishing for the whole day. you can see my zoi sat down for his 12hr long meal but also decided to queue up a bunch of actions to meet other zois

Hello @svujgeoejoxzgctxkd, I’ll merge this thread with the existing one since they both address the issue of Zoi’s wandering off-lot and overriding their action queue to engage in unintended interactions. Thanks
