Get Outta My Eco House!

Has anyone else ever had issues with neighbors in the eco world just barging through your doors to read, use your electronics, or use your toilet? It's really annoying. So far I noticed that the issue is the doors in EL, but I don't want to never use them as they offer bill discounts.

  • It happened to me in Willow Creek. I had a dumpster, fabricator and recycling machine on the lot, I believe that's why they kept barging in whenever they were in use. Send home didn't work. The only work around I found ( without mods) is to travel somewhere and take them with you. Then travel back home alone.
    Of course, they will come back another time, but it's a quick fix.
  • It happens with the Sterlings and the Knoxx family. Wondering if my vampires should just bite them as they are, after all, uninvited guests. Free meals every day? What more could a child of the night want?

    It seems like a bug to me, I hope it gets fixed. For now, I just have a fence around the house that I keep locked unless I'm expecting company.
  • I thought you might be talking about Sims Mobile. there is an eco house there that I have 2, basically, ghosts in the house that cannot be interacted with at all. Good thing they finally gave us another lot that is only big enough to put the eco house on. Wish I could delete the other house, but the game keeps telling me 'someone' (can't remember their name) is busy, so I can't delete it.
  • Nope, I don't even play Sims Mobile. Maybe I'll check it out.

    Now, I don't think I get all that garbage if I do an eco house in Strangerville, provided I want to never let anyone in to avoid getting infected...
    PS: Don't let the welcome wagon in- a guy confiscated my very nice refrigerator that I wanted after the welcome wagon came in and left, saying something in it had the infection on it.
  • Now, this is interesting. I will test this some more but nobody invades if I don't have a garden, perhaps?

    It's not helpful, though, if you're living off whatever you grow.

    Didn't work. I'll keep testing things.
  • I think I just figured it out, but it requires cheating to stop. Basically, remove the Entrepreneur trait from Bess Sterling, and the eco master trait from Knoxx. No more invasions without permission, no more wasting my precious electricity and water.

    Eviction works! So long, invaders! On the bright side, my vampires will stop biting you.
  • It seems as though people just barge in the house if I'm in Port Promise... removing all unplayed Sims help until another family moves in, it seems.

    Lovely setup here. :s
