how to stop townies from autonomously moving in with each other?

the problem is that townies will autonomously marry other townies and move in. the problem with this is i don't like how it splits up families and moves sims i don't want to move. for example, earlier today i was looking through manage households and found that mila and lucas munch moved into the roomies household (i think roomies? im not sure bc she married gavin richards and the household name was changed to richards) and left her other two sons in the munch household. this has happened several times and i want it to stop please help!

  • @TheRainbowSword Wow. I completely agree! I would be very frustrated to find my townies and sims spontaneously marrying and moving in that manner. I have never noticed this in the past and had not notices it beginning to happen. I would suggest that you post this in the suggestions/feedback thread so others can add their comments on the issue, 'like' it, and increase the likelihood of getting noticed by EA for upcoming updates.: https://forums.thesims.com/en_US/categories/TS4-feedback

    @SheriGR the game does not do this. Only mods like MCCC do this kind of "story progression". The Sims 4 vanilla no-mods has nothing like this programmed in.

    @simvasion Thank you so much! I had no idea there was a mod that did this! Wow... In light of this, @TheRainbowSword I would recommend that you remove your Mod if you don't like this issue. 

  • If you use MCCC mod, I'm pretty sure you're able to change the settings so that this won't happen. 

    -> I didn't have time to go through the whole mod, but you should look into marriage and moving settings at least.

    If you don't use this mod, there's one option to enable/disable 'fill empty lots' in the gameplay settings. I haven't tested this but it might help. 

  • hmm ive gone through these settings and theyre all turned off but yeah its probably somewhere in the mod i'll just have to look through it
