What expansions, game packs, and stuff packs do you have installed? All
Steps: How can we find the bug ourselves? It’s mainly happened in houses with teens or people in uni.
What happens when the bug occurs? “Harpo, who dis woman?” Sims randomly walk in like they pay bills; eat up all your food, use all your electricity, including computers and fridges— and they don’t even acknowledge you. Furthermore they don’t knock. The nerve!
What do you expect to see? EA to install doorbells so that we can lock our doors and hear guests at the door.

Please describe the patch or change you made. After I downloaded the University and tiny living packs

It only happens in houses where sims are in school. Either grade/high school/university.

    As stated, random sims are making themselves at home in my familes home. I haven't had it happen on any other lot type other than Tiny Residential. I have tried changing the lot type, moving the family out and back in, deleting the lot and replacing it and even deleting the families of the sims that are invading. Everytime, new sims arrive and walk in, even if I have the doors locked. When I moved the family out, changed the lot type, changed it back and moved the family back in, the same sim was still standing there and still no ask to leave option. Also tried resetsim and nothing.

    Steps: How can we find the bug ourselves? Have a sim in your house without introducing them to any outsiders. Eventually, a sim will come in without being greeted/introduced.
    What happens when the bug occurs? My sim will be in the house, doing whatever. All of a sudden a random sim is in my house (that I've never met/introduced myself too/allowed in my house)
    What do you expect to see? For strange sims to respect privacy and not enter a strangers house without introducing yourself/being allowed in.

    no screenshots, on console

  • On Sulani it seems to be a feature of culture. For other maps:

    Has any of you a better dancing matt or the better microphone on your lot?

    Those seem to mark the lot invisibly as a community lot.

    Steps: How can we find the bug ourselves? Play as a household in Sulani with the house right by the ocean. Give the lot the ‘Private Dwelling’ trait. Play game as normal.
    What happens when the bug occurs? Random NPCs who have been swimming in the ocean will make their way into my sim’s home, despite having the ‘Private Dwelling’ lot trait. They use the toilet and shower, eat my sim’s food, play on the computer and basically treat it like their own home, before randomly leaving after a few hours game time. I can’t just lock the doors because then my sims can’t have the visitors they want (i.e. family members from other households).
    What do you expect to see? NPCs staying far away from my house and not just wandering in and using everything.
