Can I lock my front door?

If you talk to Sims while your at home they will automatically come inside for a few minutes. They will leave eventually but they don't really do anything significant while in your house

Problem is, she didn't talk to him. She just came home from work and was standing outside. I was deciding what to do next when this man just walked into her house and made himself at home. I had played occasionally before the formal release a few days ago, but never had that happen. I suppose he will leave eventually, but I haven't been back in the game since.

Maybe it was just a glitch, but it reminded me of FreeSO (Free Sims Online) where other players can walk into your house uninvited and use whatever they want. It kind of freaks me out, so I won't play FreeSO

I think so also.

Two of my four sims got married recently and now their partners practically live in my house even though they are NPCs and I haven’t invited them over; they just stand around and talk to each other and get in my way when I’m designing my house haha, I wish there was an option to kick people out!

I agree with adding an option to ask people to leave or kick them out. This game seems to be pretty focused on social interactions, but after awhile you just want them to leave you alone.

Same problem here. Some woman came into my Sims home the first day I played this. She never left. She has been there since the day the game released. Always! Never leaves!

I would love the option to tell people to leave my house. If EA would implement this feature they would make a lot of people happy.

I don’t have any sims hanging around my house so I can’t try this but if you wait until they are outside and then take away the outside doors will that keep them out? It might work.

I know that's not funny, but it made me laugh. Maybe the game has chosen your spouse for you. :D

I still haven't gone back into my game, so I don't know if that man has left my house. I guess I'll check it out later today and see. If he's still there, I may start the game over. I'm only at level 6 so I won't lose that much progress.

Ok... This is a little frustrating. One of the biggest issues across the board that I see people complaining about (even myself) is that you can't lock your front door and you can't ask other Sims to leave your house. Why have the developers not implemented this feature yet? They would make a lot of people happy by doing so.

People have told me that there is an option to lock your door and that you can ask Sims to leave your house. This is NOT true. Neither of these options are available anywhere.

So what gives??
