Visitors won't leave?!

I'm not happy with the welcome wagon, either. It used to be in the Sims 1 and I just don't remember it being so obnoxious. I think it's because our Sims get penalized if they stay inside getting settled in instead of socializing with them. (That is, the welcome folks go away mad and you go in the red for relationship points).

Back to the other - I also find that visiting Sims just don't have a clue what visiting etiquette is. Some of them stay there until the wee hours of the morning. When I use "Ask to Leave" the visitor(s) always act so hurt and offended. :(

The only cure for this is another mod I am afraid. The MCCC mod allows you to have a friendly version of Ask to Leave

I didn't know that was in MCCC -- I have a mod that does the same thing; it still works even though the creator hasn't been active in over a year. I'll look for that next time I'm in game -- would be nice if I could get rid of another mod (was able to delete a bunch of no autonomous action mods thanks to MCCC).

Yes, I've had that problem, and that's the reason I like locking the doors and avoiding inviting guests...

Except that now when I'm playing with vampires, their door is always open, because it's kind of convenient to have a random human around, in case they get hungry :smiley:

I was trying to find something to make the sim leave in MCCC but I couldn't find anything. What do you do when it happens?

Click on the Sims, select MC Command Center.... Choose MC Cheats... from the Menu, choose Make Sim Leave from that Menu, and say "Buh-bye!!"

^^ This :)

deleted... duplicated post (no idea why...)

Weird, I thought I clicked on every button to find this. I'll look again.

Edit: @"Livin in Sim" Yay I found it, such a relief! Annoying sims begone!

I had to stop playing my 100 baby challenge because of this. The baby daddies would come in uninvited and never leave. Can you imagine having 20 (or more) baby daddies hanging around? I was annoyed with two so I put a stop to that and will come back once it's fixed. For a while I found that adding them to my group brought up the option to ask to leave but that only works sometimes. Then I was using MC Command but got tired of fighting with it every day. Even if they don't like you they still come around.

Aww that must've sucked! I also find this very annoying.

Playing with my vampire sim, I am able to command visitors to leave. I love the command perk for just that option alone! I just wish there was a way for non-vampire sims to be able to command others as well. I don't like having to lock and unlock my sims' door all the time to keep out unwanted guests.

They just need to get rid of most of that garbage. My sims home is not a community center. Visitors should call before coming over and ask before entering the house. Random groups should not just drop by unannounced. The welcome thing just needs to go and stay gone.

If you have City Living, put the Private Dwelling lot designation on your home lot; that takes care of random visitors showing up. (I had Eliza Pancakes at my house almost every day before I put that lot trait on the house; now the only person who comes over is my Sim's young adult daughter and she calls first anyway.)

It does?!? Where can I find that one please - never noticed it, tried to look for it but can't seem to get to it... thanks :)

And @Jaline33

I do apologise. I can't find it either. I think I'm must be going nuts. I am absolutely sure it was in there. There is another mod that does it, but sadly it is out of date.

No worries. I just spent a long time trying to find MCCC on MTS - and I can't find it either because I can't remember the real words for parts of the anagram. I wanted to subscribe to it so I can monitor how updates do vs patches and other game expansions, etc.

MCCC is MC Command Center; if you search for MC Command it should be the first result that pops up.

Thanks so much @stilljustme2 and I apologize for the delay. My Internet went down last weekend and due to scheduling conflicts I only got it fixed today. I spent some time this evening reading info on about half of the various modules for MC Command Center and it definitely sounds like something I will install at some point. I also subscribed to the mod page to further observe updates and changes before committing. That's not the only reason, though. I have been holding off on adding mods or CC to get a clearer idea of what the vanilla version of the game offers and how it responds to EP's, GP's, SP's, etc. I will definitely be adding this particular mod down the road. I like a lot of the options it offers. :smiley:

This happens to me too and I've had issues with not having the "Invite to stay the night" option as well.

On a separate note, I've been using MCC a lot to send vampires home during the day. My Sim was forever depressed from witnessing so many vampire deaths when she visited the lots :/
