HELP! Celebrities are invading my game!
Is it just me or are celebrities too common in Get Famous? It makes sense that you are able to see a lot of them in the new world, but c'mon I had like 5 celebrities at the same time in my restaurant ...

The problem is that Celebs are actually allowed to take on most "roles" the game assigns to townies and played sims. They can be normal walkbys, barflys, loungers, etc. pp.
There are very few roles celebs have been disabled for by EA. EA will have to look through all of their "role" xmls again and restrict most of them to non-Celebs (or at least celebs with less than level 4 of fame. This will be a tedious job as some of the roles are actually used for played sims as well so they cannot just disable fame for each "role" xml.
I also noticed that roles don't work the way expected after the phython patch. The game will no longer recognize hidden households as hidden, so hidden sims will appear in roles (e. g. as walkbys) that should not be available to them. The xml coding is still intact, but it does not work any longer.
Same goes for the coding that should prevent sims that have ever been played from taking on special roles, e. g. the unimportant and unimportant_nocareer roles.
I hope EA is already working on a fix for these issues, townies are already messy enough without these.
