[BY DESIGN] [GF] Sims inviting themselves into celebrity Sim's home
Product: The Sims 4
Platform:PC
Which language are you playing the game in? English
How often does the bug occur? Every time (100%)
What is your current game version number? 1.50.67.1020
What expansions, game packs, and stuff packs do you have installed? All expansions and game packs.
Steps: How can we find the bug ourselves? 1. Have a celebrity Sim preferably 3*+ 2. Be friends with a handful of Sims. 3. Play until one of your Sim's friend randomly forces a notification on your wall about you being famous and want to catch up on old times.
What happens when the bug occurs? The Sim invites themselves in like they own the place without ringing even when I did not give them the residential key.
What do you expect to see? I expect Sims not to invite themselves into the home especially when I don't even have a choice to decline their visit.
Have you installed any customization with the game, e.g. Custom Content or Mods? Not now. I've removed them.
Did this issue appear after a specific patch or change you made to your system? Yes
Please describe the patch or change you made. This was a problem ever since Get Famous came out which just gets worse when your Sim builds up more friendship with others.
While playing a celebrity Sim, you will notice from time to time a notification from your Sim's friend wanting to catch up on old times. The Sim's friend will arrive to the lot and walk right in without knocking or ringing. They don't have the residential key to come in but for some reason they can just walk through the door. The notification doesn't even have an option to decline so really they just force themselves into your home.
I can understand the notification for a visit is part of a feature, but the Sims just waltzing into your home shouldn't be.
Hello @Rorolina
I've been told this is by design.
