Kisrah, I can go multiple sim generations without an alien abduction in-game. My last abduction was 10 generations ago, and I have played this current save since 2016. That save is 30+ generations deep. The toggle you are asking for was already provided via in-game mechanics by the satellite I mentioned. Yes, that does mean you need to cue the action every 24 sim hours, but it is available. Alien abduction chances are already excessively rare, so you must actively be doing the gameplay that increases the chances. Perhaps disable the pack for a couple of sim generations to see if that helps reset the chance back to it being a rare occurrence. Btw, I have trouble getting it to ever happen at all to my male sims. Normally abduction only happens to my female sims.
I've been playing the Sims for more than 20 years and I've had exactly one alien abduction in my game in all this time, namely in Sims 4, and they abducted a female who was doing the Strangerville quest. They abducted her in Britechester. I also think that people who get abductions often are regularly engaging in alien related gameplay. Could also be that my sims rarely pursue the logic skill, maybe the aliens don't find them smart enough.
