Idle characters don't sit when they have no jobs.

[theigabod]

As the title says, my idle characters will just stand around aimless even when I have the squad AI option to sit when idle ticked. I've placed vanilla stools and sitting boxes and benches all over the place and nobody does anything but stand there aimless. It happens in old saves as well as new games. I don't understand why. I managed to get it to happen once in one of my earlier games a month or two ago, but they just don't sit down anymore.

I think this feature might be obsolete, may be wrong though

[theigabod]

well it must have happened in the recent update. but I'm not a fan of it. I want my characters to use the furniture I placed around the base. And I don't want to have to micromanage and just tell them to go sit in a particular place. Stupid change needs to be reverted.

Do you have them on "Hold"? They won't use furniture automatically if set to Hold.

[theigabod]

no. I can start a brand new game and do nothing but repair a house in the hub and then build a stool and then not touch anything for 15 minutes and come back to the game and my character is still just standing there aimless right were I left him.

[theigabod]

for the record. I am on the experimental build.

[crux]

Yeah, the AI can be wonky. I had a house in the hub and squaddies would only go use the beds at the thieves tower (allies) when injured if I had them move to a particular corner in the stationhouse I bought. Anywhere else in town and they would not use the beds automatically.

[theigabod]

I haven't had problems with the beds not being used. Just chair type furniture.

Update: I reinstalled the game and it fixed my issue with people not sitting.
