One of my Sims families is a family of thieves all with the kleptomaniac trait. The trait has been working perfectly fine since it was included in the game, but suddenly it's not working properly. My Sims go to other Sims' houses to steal, the mother being the one who can steal the biggest things like sofas etc. Every time they swipe something successfully the notification pops up, but when I go to their household inventory there're no items for me to sell. Mods/CCI have CC, but they've never interfered before. Expansion Packs/Game Packs/Stuff PacksBase game, Get To Work, Get Together, Christmas packOccurring sinceThe last update (as of 2016/10/27)Operating systemWindows 10 Has this been happening to anyone else?

Sims with the Kleptomaniac trait should no longer place items they have stolen into the inventories of the Sim they stole the items from. I feel as though the story of Robin was lost in translation. This was fixed in Patch 1.32.1 ... again

[FIXED] Swiped Objects don't appear in household inventory

Could you please remove all your cc/mods and try again.

Mods/cc can break with new patches and you'll need to test on a vanilla game for me.

I have the same issue (no mods/cc, new save, game freshly repaired).

I'm having the same problem, but not only with outdoor items, with everything that can't go in a sims inventory. The only thing I think I can steal is a tablet. I hope this is fixed soon. 🙂

I have Klepto Sim and when she goes to swipe an item, the item does not disappear from the lot, nor does it show up in the Household Inventory like the message in the top-left corner states. It seems to have broke in the latest patch (PC Version 1.24.102.1020). My Sims makes a living by being a Career Criminal and stealing items from museums and other places. Hopefully this gets fixed soon.

I am having the same issue. I swipe, they show gone, but when I get home they arent in my inventory. My poor simmie almost died because of it. Also, there was ONE item in my family inventory, the bunny garden statue. I did not swipe this and my sime did not have it. Shes a new save and is starting from scratch. I know its been added, but i figured i would report that there was a weird item instead of the one swiped. Hope this is fixed soon. ☹️
