#NPC animation loop too long

Hello,
I'm playing with a friend, and I'm NOT the host. This bug/problem could probably also appear in single player, but I'm playing in multi so I'm posting it here.

Some animation loops are too long, which leads to some "freeze".

For example with Leah. During the evening in Winter, she's in her room the mansion doing video stuff.
If you ask her for a hug, it can either be instant, or you can wait for 20 seconds before she answers.
I feel like (I can be wrong) that the wait time depends of the animation loop. If she just started an animation loop, you have to wait until it's finished for her to answer and get up. You are effectively stuck without any HUD until she answers.
Could also be a network hiccup during multiplayer, but I'm not certain.

**Reproduction Steps **

  • Ask for a hug to Leah in her home during the evening, while she's working on her phone.
    **Repro Rate ** It happened two or three times, but I haven't tested it 50 times either...
    **Game Platform ** Steam
    Game Version v1.2b-1244
    Input Mode Player A, host, mouse and keyboard. Player B, PS4 controller
    Your save file Can provide it if needed
    **Attachment ** Can record a video if needed

Hello @urban harness Thank you for your report. 🙆‍♀️
When you have a chance to play again, could you please share a video of the incorrect behavior as well?

This will really help our team take a closer look. Thank you so much! ✨

I will try to find another NPC interaction that does this. I just married Leah this specific scenario isn't possible anymore x)

Sorry, I didn't even know it was possible to hug other NPC even if were not married or dating. Is it an interaction that occurs after giving the NPC a locket ? If yes, I haven't given any other.

This problem of the game freezing (or taking a very long time to do the action) only occured with Leah, during that place in her mansion bedroom. I haven't been able to replicate it at other places, even after the marriage
