Firefighters, then where are BURGLARS?!
How has it been almost several years and yet we STILL HAVE NOT HAD BURGLARS?! As well as only now receiving firefighters when for years the ability was there already coded into our games so fires were...

The fact that they've added firefighters and repomen to the base game brings me hope that we'll be seeing burglars and cops as NPC's sometime soon. They just need to make an NPC that combines elements of a vampire break-in and a repoman event, program a working burglar alarm (likely borrowing elements from the fire alarm code and reworking it to respond to this new event), then borrow the firefighter alarm and phone call response code and modify it to respond to a burglar by fighting the crook, cuffing them, and carting them away. That could take a while, but maybe they're already on it. If they actually are working on it right now, it may be just 12-18 months away at minimum (being generous here, because of testing and bug squashing and the possibility of weird and unforseen interactions between different bits of code).
