Steps: How can we find the bug ourselves? 1. Set up residential lot with one of the traits being a private dwelling. 2. Click on door and disallow everyone. 3. Play as you normally would. 4. Randomly stranger sims would decide to visit and or use your appliances when they don't have access to your estate
What happens when the bug occurs? Sims I have never met or spoken to come onto my property use my appliances such as grill or even going into my house to use my sink when I have never interacted with them to give them a key to my home.
What do you expect to see? I expect never to see anybody come over unless I personally know and invite them myself. I don't expect to see people deciding my cottage is a second home to them
Have you installed any customization with the game, e.g. Custom Content or Mods? On console - never used.
Did this issue appear after a specific patch or change you made to your system? Yes
Please describe the patch or change you made. The latest patch.
I started playing horse ranch. I didn't want to deal with the welcome wagon or random people visiting me about whatever so I can focus on the gameplay and get used to it. Despite having the private dwelling trait and disallowing people via my front door, stranger sims just come to my property using my appliances such as the grill on my front poor or even walking into my house to use my kitchen sink. Hey sims do you know what Private dwelling means. Means you are trespassing on my property. Strongly considering evicting every household but my own. I am also unable to send them away. I just have to wait until they leave of their own will
