Re: [ARCHIVED] Sims invade homes (no ask to leave/Send home)

I finally found a workaround after literally years of this problem. I had all of my Sim's gates locked on the Admiral's Wreckage lot (which has been replaced with a house). I unlocked a garden gate to let in a visiting family member. I wish I could have gotten a video of what happened next. Random Sims visiting the neighbourhood literally ran into the garden through the open gate, following the family member in. They were all over the garden, in the stable, the greenhouse. They made themselves at home. Luckily they couldn't access the house because it's elevated to the first floor with another locked gate, treehouse style and on the ground floor there's just a garage, stable, greenhouse and pool.

But...the positive thing I found is that because I had an invited guest I could use Send Everyone Home and it worked for the uninvited home invaders too. They all went home. Unfortunately it cut short her half sister's visit and their Difficult relationship wasn't helped but at least it got rid of the garden full of strangers that were pestering the horses and mini goats.

So, if there are strangers that won't leave try inviting a visitor and then using Send Everyone Home because it will appear once you invite someone and should work for the invaders too.
