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

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. ...

    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

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.  ☹️

My kleptomaniac never got anything she had stolen, but she did get two posters and chicken centerpiece for a table.

    I am having the same issues as everyone else here. I go to swipe something and the object doesn't disappear. Then I go to return it, thinking that if I return it then maybe I can swipe it again and it'll work. No such luck......when I "return" the object stolen it then disappears from all existence. It is neither on the lot nor in my sims inventory. Also having the issue where only a few things here and there are able to be stolen, but those objects are few and far between. I hope this gets fixed soon too!

      I too am having this issue it's infuriating. What's the point in the klepto trait without getting he stolen goods? Just seems pointless. My sim has stolen all sorts like TVs sofas suit of armour statue pictures etc etc and I haven't gotten a single one of these items 😡 Come on EA fix it please!!

        OK, patch came and went and my Klepto still has no swiped items in her inventory upon arriving home.  This is so frustrating since my story sim is a klepto in the criminal career.  Items from rummaging show up but no swiped items.  They are disappearing when I swipe them, but are not in the household inventory.

        I have removed CC, repaired game(twice), refreshed my  folder and even made a clean save thinking perhaps mine was corrupted.  How did this get missed in the patch when it was obviously an issue before it??????
