Is there a way to get npc sims out of the player's house?

Yeah I don't like how guests will just wander allllll over your house like they own the place. I always forget locking doors come in handy. :D

Same. And now I think about it. I think I locked the twins' bedroom for only them so I guess the gf can't leave since I locked it after she was inside. But it's so annoying that she just enters my house to use my computers like it's her own! She needs to ASK before using -_-

I find it quite rude when your Sim invites someone over and that someone proceeds to wander all over the house as if it's their own! The worse case I had was very recently. My teen did the 'make friends' option while at school and once school let out, the pop-up suggested should he bring Sim XX home after school. Most of the time I click on yes. The whole point of having them 'make friends' after all is to increase their circle of friends. What was troubling is that Luna took it upon herself to destroy the science project Erik's brother had been working on. So, of course, Joey, who got upset decided to destroy Erik's project in return. Only he was sneaky and waited until the next day to do it. The brothers got into a tiff, as a result of Joey accusing Erik of touching his things, first, and then accused him of destroying his project. (That was the first time I've seen that interaction in the menu, by the way.) All is okay now. But it was all Luna's fault! I mean, she really tore into the project! I hope she feels better for her act of pure vandalism. But you can bet Erik will not invite her over ever again. And, since he's almost a Rising Star, she really blew it. :open_mouth:

I think you're being able to 'ask to leave' is a bug. I was able to have Erik ask Luna to leave.

Oh my, that's horrible! Yeah I hate it when they invite a friend over that I don't know cause they met at school! I wanna at least know them a bit before they visit. But I guess that's what the visit is for. That's horrible that guest came in and wrecked a project and made your sims fight about it. One time I had a random sim come up to my house and wanted in. So I let the mysterious sim, not knowing him at all back before I made a family. And he stole my giraffe then used my computer as if it was his! I was so mad when I realized he stolen my giraffe! I wish I could have had Henry attack him and make him give my giraffe back! But no! I couldn't beat him up cause he stole my giraffe when both of my sims weren't looking! So Henry ordered him to leave and that thieving teenager left with only getting yelled at! HE STILL HAD MY GIRAFFE! Ugh, that still makes me upset.

I wish I could have sims tunnel the paths I tell them to, not ignore me and not go to locations or can't tell another sim to leave! I hope it was a one time bug cause that was dumb. And I'm not making a guest computer for others staying over! No, they are so rude to come into my house and act like it's their own! They should at least ASK to use personal belongings of other sims.

I hope you venting your story got that annoyance off your chest. I know it helped me. I wish you better luck. And if Luna comes around again, maybe you can have your sims argue with her, until they aren't friends anymore, so she wouldn't come back to your house and break things. Or if that's not possible, then you could always try to kill her. XD

Good luck, thanks for the comment :smiley:

Must be some bug. I usually have the Ask To Leave option there.

Yeah I don't know why there's no Ask to Leave option :confused:

I also sometimes don't get an option to ask sims to leave. What I do is create a group with them, (action on social menu) and then have them all "Go here" clicking somewhere outside the house and them lock the door for household only temporarily until they finally give up and leave my lot.

Adding to the "create a group" advice; once you add a Sim to your group, you can also click anywhere and select "go here together" to make a Sim walk somewhere you want them to.

I always use the door locks, though, to prevent these situations. Any room that would typically be off limits to guests gets locked, except for household use. Bedrooms, upstairs bathrooms if there're ones available downstairs, offices, activity rooms, etc.. Then I'll just select to unlock the door for specific Sims that I might be fine with wandering; that more often is just for anyone coming to woohoo, though. ?

As for computer use, you should have a lock option so not any random Sim can come over for a visit and start playing on it.

I did that, and got Olivia's gf to leave by taking her to the park then ending group XD

I got this bug too! It only happened to me twice and only during a challenge where I had to turn off mods and cc and force myself to play a vanilla game. I was living in Sulani and had befriended Makoa. One day he came over to visit but wouldn't leave! I had no option to ask him to leave either. As a joke I declared "if he doesn't leave in 24 sim hours I'm gonna start hitting on him." He ended up staying at my house for 3 days! I even left the lot and came back, went to Manage Households etc... he was still there, waiting. By the time he finally did leave he was my boyfriend and soulmate, lol. I also convinced him to leave Liliana.

It happened again with Gavin Richards a sim week or so later. By day 2 though I actually realized I could just switch to Gavin's household so I did and just made him go home. Should've done that with Makoa, I guess.. ? Wasn't planning to wreck any homes but if opportunity knocks, I answer!

Well it made the game a bit more interesting for you :smiley:

I fixed it by doing the group, going to the park, and then leaving her there. XD But I'm sure I'll have to try this way too in the future! XD
