Future Cube Epidemic

I've tried mods from three different creators and none of them seem to work to stop townie's obsession with using it. Help?

  • Try this one if you haven't: SimsKiller (EvanSkiStudios) - Stop Automously Using Futurecube! - only on Mod the Sims or Curseforge. Any other location you see it uploaded to is not legit and likely outdated.

    Thank you for the suggestion! That's actually one of the creators out of the three I talked above 😭 I tried all three one by one and this thing just persists. I'll try again with the one you mentioned.

    One of the townie who obsessively use this cube is actually my played Sim. So after I saw her do that, I played her household and she doesn't even have a Future Cube in her inventory 😟

    There's a chance you have a conflicting mod, too, so I'd test it alone. It's the most recently maintained option, so the most likely to be working.

    Okay so! I think I found out why. My hunch is the NAP again. Specifically the "Tech Support" NAP. 

    I tried to add mailbox to the assigned lot my Sim's currently traveling at (E.G. Spice Festival's assigned lot Karaoke Bar) to shift+click and Instant Repeal but ofc, the option's greyed out because they can only vote in their home neighborhood. I don't have any played household in said area (or anywhere I wanna disable the NAP, really) and trying to disable each neighborhood's NAP manually seems tedious... since I'd have to play a household in each area. I read in the mods description that some NAP behavior gets stuck to Sims from the applied neighborhood.

    So my question I guess would be... is there any option to disable NAP entirely in all worlds without uninstalling the Eco Lifestyle pack? It's quite a bummer as I like having Neighbors come and give me free (gardening) stuff or repair my broken things :\

    Shift-click the mailbox to turn off the current one. Personally, I like Kuttoe's Civic Policies mod for revising the NAPs to make them slightly less annoying and to add new ones. MIzoreYukii's Eco Living NAP Blocker stops the whole system.

    Wow, thank you! I'll be getting those mods ASAP haha. I wish shift+click to instant repeal is allowed for Sims not from the home neighborhood, but those mods should do the trick.

    Pick just one of the two - they won't work together. I've been using Kuttoe's because I also like the ones he added.
