And we don?t mean just little bits and pieces of kleptomania. Some players report that their Sims go as far as stealing pet toys and even robbing karaoke bars. Yikes. When the Sims 4 team said they were ?thinking about burglars for The Sims 4?, we didn?t think this is what they?d meant.
Here's what happened when Twitch streamer TieTuesday, some of his pals, and one of the mod's developers got a bit carried away stealing level triggers in a prison level (they do cuss but are mostly nice boys):
Sims 4 Stealing Mod
This is also a fascinating look behind the curtain at how Source levels are built, poking at different kinds of entities, stealing essential unseen objects, breaking scripting, teleporting through walls with a satanic gun, and getting into places that weren't meant to be seen. It celebrates the artificiality and clever tricks of virtual spaces while robbing them blind.
Still, the embedding of password-stealing code to take on pirates has raised serious concerns from security experts regarding the collection and storing of user data without their consent or a warrant.
I loaded an earlier save and when I arrived in Sanctuary Hills the first thing I did was take all the ammo and cores from that cabinet, to stop anyone stealing them. But when the mutants attacked one of the settlers still stole a suit of power armour! I think the settler must have brought a fusion core with them when they arrived in Sanctuary Hills. Usually I trade with new settlers to take nice loot from them and make sure they have some ammo and a bit of leather armour, but I must have not done that for this guy.
I'm going to nuke Sanctuary Hills (so help me God!) because of all the stealing going on in that place--armor, weapons, ammo, FOOD (sometimes) too! All I need to do is finish cleaning it completely out, construct artillary, use the smoke bombs to aim, and BOOM!
I have solved all the stealing and sleeping in your bed, sitting around in your house...Build a house where ever you like but use a wall instead of door. When you come home just click into build mode, click on wall, walk through then hit B to cancel. Bingo. Your home and no one has touched a thing. Mine is on top of Red Rocket. Works great.
Getting your weapons & power armor back from settlers or companions is a non-issue, as you can simply trade gear back for free, & tell them to exit the armor. No big deal there. Settlers won't refuse to return items or leave town. They won't even take a projectile weapon unless they have ammo for it... However, here's the kicker: If your settlement is under attack while a merchant is there, the merchant may also enter empty power armor & take a stored weapon to join the fight. They have plenty of various munitions in their inventory, & they can take power armor even if there's no core in the frame or in their stash. In fact, ANY friendly NPC can use power armor without a power core during a settlement attack. I removed all the cores from my fleet & they're still used by settlers during settlement fights just the same. However, merchants won't give it back. After the battle is over, there's no option to retrieve any of the stuff a merchant took. If you try to steal or trade back a weapon yoinked by a merchant, it won't show in their inventory, presumably because they've equipped it, & there's no command option for merchants to exit power armor. Trashcan Carla entered my Atom Cats armor, & took a highly modded rifle from my workshop during a raider attack. Now I can't get them back. The rifle isn't in her inventory, but she still pulls it & fires it if attacked. As for the armor, you can kick a merchant from power armor by stealing the core (plant one first if there's not one in already), but they'll turn hostile, getting killed by settlers & turrets unless you have a high steal perk. Leaving a corpse & power frame in the street for the rest of the game ain't cool. Merchants will also exit your stolen power armor in Bunker Hill, at the sales counter, but it's hit & miss when they'll show up. Simply waiting or sleeping doesn't work, you'll need to leave the area & return later, whenever their caravan arrives. I keep all of my shit alone at Red Rocket now. I've even built a home there, but it too is along the merchant route, & therefor subject to the same event.
That being said, stealing is still possible in The Sims 4 if a Sim has the kleptomaniac trait. It's a pretty nice way to make some extra money and just ruin other people's days when something goes missing. At least, as long as they don't get caught! The Goths house in particular is a gold mine, and those life-sized statues can fit right in your pocket.

If you want to see the thief in action (or if you want to see him standing on your doorstep while your sims can't sleep), Carl has included a handy cheat with this Mod that lets you spawn burglars after 22pm. Note that it will only work if all your Sims in the house are sleeping! The cheat in question is:
Since your Sims will likely wake up when they're done stealing items, you have the option to select Thief and Fight for Stuff. Of course, sims that spawn as thieves can have other statuses, like vampires or celebrities (how many celebrities have been arrested for stealing something?) so it's possible these statuses work before you start fighting them.
According to the FBI, criminals are changing legitimate QR codes used by businesses for payment purposes to redirect potential victims to malicious websites aimed at stealing their personal and financial information, installing malware on their devices or diverting their payments to accounts under their control.
The mod in question is Skyrim Script Extender, aka SKSE, a venerable mod framework/loader which anyone who ever installed a Skyrim mod will instantly recognise the name of. The developers behind each mod have been raising dragonskin handbags at dawn for a while now, with SKSE dev Ian "extrwi" Patterson taking to Reddit to provide what he claimed was proof that the Skyrim Together folk had been "stealing SKSE code, uncredited, without permission."
Court case hearings are scheduled at the city hall approx. 2 days after application. As well as applying directly at City Hall, sims can open some cases via their lawyer (only cases which benefit from having a lawyer), or can open any case via. their computer. If there is no City Hall available in the world, there will be an attempt to schedule the hearing at a University Administration Centre if available.
Actually making them watch the Sim walk down instead of staring into the air like they do while sitting on the chairs is probably the complicated part. I would also love if some of the sims would walk to a designated spot after walking down the aisle instead of running away
The thought of theft and burglary are two of the most annoying and disturbing crimes haunting urban living everywhere. That is why today we will be looking at the sims 4 burglar mod so you can experience it, but only for fun; in real life, no one wants to get robbed.
The burglars added in the game by CarlsSims are not just any burglars; they put it all on the line! They try to rob most of the things in the house; their presence also affects the sims in the house; they get scared, and their positive moodlet drops.
The Good Neighborhood lot trait will reduce the chances of an invasion, and the Bad Neighborhood will increase the chances of a burglary. With the help of a cheat, you can see the burglars in action after all the sims in your house are asleep.
Not just burglars but violent sims that will have guns will now target your household, so be prepared for a wild ride. Other things like car accidents and bullying are also a part of this mod. You can turn off tragedies which are included in this mod for your sim, in the mod menu.
But usually, they take one or two objects per lot, and before going away, they wait outside patiently, waiting for your reaction! Overconfidence flows in their veins. You can also fight for your stuff, but that is only when they are done stealing your objects. 2ff7e9595c
