Is it possible to have a houseguest walk in a circle? While setting a path I do not see an option to link to nodes and so I am unable to make my character simply walk in a circle. It is A to Z then Z to A.

    I believe you can set the path to "loop". Is that what you are asking?

    By default, the path is ping pong (A->Z, Z->A) but you can Path Edit and then open up the Path Settings and change it from Ping Pong to Loop.

    And just to add, “random” is another option for the path.

    I recently unlocked Mirri as a houseguest, I wish she could interact with some of the items or pets i have in my house. She just stands there or walks back and forth :/

    I wish the house guests had an interaction ability as well.

    Sitting down, making them emote, etc. would be great.

    Yes, that would be perfect! Especially sitting down and such... That would make the houses a lot more lively

    I wish you didn't have to lay down a path at all. I'd love to be able to just choose "random" and let them wander around however they want. Maybe we could highlight a single room or multiple rooms or the entire house as their roaming area.

    That's because they'd phase through furniture and such

    When you're editing the path, there's an option on the bottom right side of your screen that says "Path settings". For me, that is R. When I press R, it shows me loop, random, or ping pong. Loop would be a circle :)

    I have only pathed my kitty in a small area and my barmaid in another small area because I don't find the process the least bit user friendly. Turns are not smooth and going up stairs, especially curved stairs, without walking into the steps is a challenge. There has to be a better way.

    ... or get stuck in some corner. Pathing in a user generated space would be a nightmare.

    Put your path nodes in the shape you want, then pick the loop option shown here and it will link your first and last node so your houseguest/pet/mount will walk in a loop of said nodes.

    That’s what I’ve done. Apart from a couple of pets that I made walk back and forth in a certain area, all of my people at my homes are set to walk around the grounds in a kind of loop at a starting point somewhere, along the path set, and then back to the beginning.
