Zoi’s keep noticing someone in the bathroom even with closed off walls..

This may not be a bug, but its something i find really silly and annoying while playing..
Everytime my zoi walk past a bathroom, fully closed off, they will react and feel “embarrassed” after seeing one of their family members using the toilet or shower.. but this doesn’t make sense because the room is closed off so zoi’s aren’t supposed to see anything..

And also another thing, spouses shouldn’t be embarrassed when seeing each other in the bathroom or showering.. this really kills realism and is just weird to me lol sorry..

But if this is a bug i will put it here.

Oh come on, this is really ridiculous, how far are the going to push this?
Any kind of violence is totally fine, riding over children with a car and even hitting babies, but by seeing someone in the shower, they draw the line? -.-

Could it be the windows in the door? Idk why you used a door with windows for a bathroom :confused:

Yes, this really bothered me frequently but I thought it had gotten better / the devs had gotten rid of it with the newest updates and patches :thinking: Seems to happen still though.

But even if, there is nothing to see anyway. They use the toilet fully dressed and wear a towel in the shower and bathtub. What’s there to be so upset about? This reaction ist totally exaggerated.

There should be an option for Zois to ignore this silly behaviour and let them use the bathroom together if they want to

The clothes and towel are to sensor our vision, Idt that they effect zois, seems inZOI is doing the same things as the sims, as if EA laid out some type of guidelines that should be followed, which inZOI should come up with their own ideas because the sims keeps loosing respect.

I didn’t choose this door, i think the door is the standard door for that one Cahaya house lol. All i did was recolor it and i didn’t think much about it.. even if i change the doors without little windows in it they will still act this way. Before the December update i didn’t had this issue, as much.. but now it’s just all the time lol

I have this issue as well. I also find it annoying that married Zois or parents and their young children have this reaction as well to each other. It shouldn’t matter to your partner or young child whether they see you naked or the other way around. Most children only fuss about this stuff when they start to become teens.

I agree with Lenny that we should be able to turn this behavior off with a cheat or whatever. I get that in some cultures people are more sensitive about seeing each other naked, but here in the Netherlands this is definitely not a thing, unless you walk in on a complete stranger in a public bathroom.

I agree, there should be options to turn on or off everything in the game for every person to play inZOI they way we prefer.

This issue needs to be fixed simply because no one can see you in a bathroom by walking passed a closed door. :+1:

Totally agree. Even with my loyal attitude toward one side or another of the game, the number of oversights in the average family/social management is substantial, especially considering that THIS is actually the whole point and the key reason creating a game in this genre.

This is a screenshot from the end of November Friday video, there is no room and the other Zoi runs away, maybe they made it a radius?

So if the bathroom is small, it affects all the Zois in the rooms around.

“Get all outta here!!! Quick!”

“What? Is there a fire?”

“No, far worse! Ralfy is taking a shower!!!”

“Women and children first!”

Yup yup, there’s a circle radius that they use.. when a zoi steps into the radius they react to a certain situation, i saw that in one of the Friday videos.. but still kinda silly, the circle radius shouldn’t work in a closed room :smiling_face_with_tear:
