Items vanishing in lots in eco lifestyle

Lol! It’s pure chaos and I’m down for it! I’m so sorry for OP. It’s annoying but it’s right along the lines of weirdness I came to expect of The Sims! That said, does swiping stuff from the community lots mean that said item is lost forever? And if we want to “fix” the community lot by putting the lost items back, does it mean that we have to do it ourselves?

Yeah, this is not going to work for me. This kind of thing is why I never preorder. I'm going to have to see how this plays out before I purchase.

My recycler sim has just swiped her own trash can for the second time. I wouldn't mind if I could find it, though not sure if it has been converted to recycled trash, or whatever. But now I know she should be recycling more often, I'll give that a go! Just an odd item to chose, because she could have rummaged in there anyways for items to recycle!

Hahaha The recycle trait it is pure chaos that’s for sure. I changed the trait of my sim in the end and have had no swiping going on now. The only thing I had To do was reappeal against the sharing is caring NAP as a sim came into my house and took my kitchen sink and another took my dining table and chairs. That’s part of the game that’s fine but sharing is not caring for me. XD leave my sink alone!

That's weird! Probs you should try repairing your game if you play on origin otherwise I dont really know sorry!

Wow, what a horrible feature and trait or whatever. I would hate this. It would drive me nuts for my Sims to be stealing and taking stuff from community lots where I had spent a lot of time building them. Stealing is never cool. If they want to say sharing is caring then there should have been bins and other things where it said "Free" on it. Such poor implementation of reusing the klepto trait. As far as Sims taking their own dog bowls and the player wondering where is it, I have killed Sims for a lot less. I can't stand total poorly done gameplay without a thought of the player's sanity.

Actually, yes, this is indeed a bummer. Guess I need to wait for a mod that fixes this until I can play. I'm all for a bit of chaos, but my mild OCD loathes items getting removed from my lots uncontrollably. The klepto trait is my worst enemy. lol

Get revenge and go to their place and steal it back! :) The thing about the Sharing Is Caring NAP is that it balances out since you can freely do the same. I hope the developers had the foresight to not have them steal family photos though! Anytime that I move a sim I immediately make sure I don't miss collecting any of their family photos so I'd hate if that happened!

The trait description warns that there were consequences to you not recycling and they weren't lying!!! :)

I had my sims go on a date to a restaurant in Oasis spring. Some random other Sims stole a piano, a table and 4 chairs. Another stole wall decorations. I went up to them and introduce myself, they do not have the klepto trait. I do not currently have the sharing is caring plan in eco lifestyle either because I didn't want this to happen. Now I don't feel like going on "community" lots because they will lose all the items I've previously placed even tho I don't see how it would be logical for a Sim to swipe, steal, etc... from a "restaurant" when my own Sim don't even have the option to do so. Unless you need a specific combo with the recycling trait that we can't see from the meeting up information that displays the sims traits.

I had a plant in the vertical planter keep disappearing, but can still be interacted with, and one that repeatedly reverts to a seed. SO. MANY. BUGS. in this pack.
