Foxes in Da House

Are foxes supposed to let themselves into my Sim's house and run around manically? They do! and I don't like it!

I locked the doors and that seems to have resolved it, but I'd love to be able to invite bunny friends in and can't with the door locked. 

  • If you use mods Lotharihoe have a mod Small Mods Compilation -> No Wild Foxes Inside. In my vanilla game I don’t use the lot trait wild foxes, so I don’t have this problem.

    @Soretta , there is a chance that this is not a bug, but was intended by the developers. We really don't know at this point.   If it is a bug I hope they fix it . 🤞

  • @Soretta If you don't want to have the foxes running into your house, you should just lock the doors foor all but household members. The only time I had a fox running into my Sims house was when i forgot to close the door after a visit of a family member. So, it is probably not a bug you encountered.

    Have fun playing. 😉

  • Honestly I just turn the fox challenge off on the lots I'm playing. I liked the concept, but in practice there were constantly wild foxes I hadn't even met yet just letting themselves into my house and running in circles causing my Sims to have routing errors, and no point in befriending them and asking them not to steal because a brand new fox would just spawn as soon as you did so you could never reduce the number of thieving foxes, only increase the number running laps in the house.

    Leaving the fox challenge on the neighbors though does lead to foxes at the edges of the property and the chickens occasionally being scared by them, so I still sort of keep the fox gameplay. That's fun. Especially when my evil chicken sets one on fire.

    I might get the "no wild foxes in the house" mod.  I think they're adorable, I just don't want them in my house. 

    (Although, yeah, I'm still sad that one ate a bunny I was trying to befriend on my lot on my first day on HoB.)

  • Taking the Wild Foxes challenge off the property is what I'm gonna have to do as well, because I'm playing a toddler in a grow-up challenge and the uncontrolled adults are too busy playing computer games and peeing themselves to befriend foxes. The foxes run into the house just like the "why is there a random sim in my house I can't make leave?" bug, and I notice in this new playthrough, anyone my toddler talks to on the street is automatically going to book it into the house to dance to the radio without even being invited in (because a toddler has no Invite In or whatever relevant social does that).
