Hi guys,
Since TwistedMexi made a much better version of this mod HERE I will no longer be updating this one. It's called the T.O.O.L mod. He's got a bunch of other useful mods there too!
Certain objects might lack some functionality after being placed off lot without more tuning, but I haven't heard anyone needing them yet. So if you do, let me know and I'll update the "Keep in game" objects you need them to be fully working.
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------
To give you a safer/cleaner game and make updates easier (and maybe unnecessary) most of these objects have only been given simple "inventory/placement" tuning. Unless I have written "Keep in game" next to the download, please
REMOVE THE MOD
after placing the objects and saving your game. The objects will still be where you placed them and safely take on the games own tuning.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------
To avoid the confusion of the ever growing list I will start to organize all of these objects according to the pack they came from. I'll put a list of all the objects available in each pack in the description below. Let me know if anyone wants anything else made portable/place-able.
Added some new items

- Water Balloon Bucket

- For more inventory enabled items check out "More Portable Objects".
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
I've always wished there where more things for sims to do in the open areas of the world between lots, or that we could edit them. So I came up with this idea:
I added a function to these objects that will allow sims to put them in their inventory and then place them anywhere in the world. They will then be usable for all sims!
Tips:
The objects come in different varieties:
These will also work for any custom objects you have.
They require deeper layers of tuning to make them work "off lot" and unlike the overrides, would slightly change the function of the object so I'm keeping them separate non-overrides.
Unlike the other off lot plants, these ones need care. I thought it might be nice for a community garden and those city sims to get in touch with nature
Enjoy!

I've always wished there where more things for sims to do in the open areas of the world between lots, or that we could edit them. So I came up with this idea:
I added a function to these objects that will allow sims to put them in their inventory and then place them anywhere in the world. They will then be usable for all sims!

Tips:
- Don't go overboard with these mods, I'm not sure if it'll cause lag on lower end machines if you put too much stuff everywhere.
- No need to re-place the objects after an update, they'll simply take on the new tuning.
- If you resize and object before placing it in inventory, it'll stay enlarged/shrunk when you place it in world.
- If the "put in inventory" interaction disappears, it's likely because a sim is still interacting with the object and should reappear when they move off.
- They can only be removed or placed by the family that bought them. I suggest using one household to place ALL the objects in the world, that way you won't get confused by who placed what.
- A tip from Coolspear: Alternatively you can remove objects via a mod like one of these:
(P.S. You don't need these mods for mine to work, but a handy tip for any stuck objects, even those annoying plates left in the open world)- Weerbesu updated Clowns Debug mod found in the comments section HERE
- Enabling Debug in MC Command Center, turning on cheats (testingcheats on), shift clicking an object and "Destroying Object"
The objects come in different varieties:
- Override objects:
These will also work for any custom objects you have.
- Non Override objects:
They require deeper layers of tuning to make them work "off lot" and unlike the overrides, would slightly change the function of the object so I'm keeping them separate non-overrides.
- Toddler Playground:
- Pick up the toddler, then the "help to climb" option will appear.
- Have the toddler play spaceport or pirates first, then the adult can "play pretend" with them.
- Have the toddler play with the dollhouse first, then the adult/child can join them.
- Gardening Planters and Harvestable Plants:
Unlike the other off lot plants, these ones need care. I thought it might be nice for a community garden and those city sims to get in touch with nature

- Puppet Theatre:
Enjoy!
