How often do you have to run this? By the way I disabled the NAP function as a result of this bug.

I just downloaded basemental recently but I haven't played it yet. (Been remodeling worlds)
Can someone please explain what N.A.P. stands for? Thank you.

Only whenever you see NPC's do autonomous NAP related interactions where they aren't supposed to, I guess.
To be honest, I am not quite sure as I just created what Crinrict asked for, a quick script to remove all NPC NAP hidden commodities on all Sims through a command in the cheat console

I can maybe shed some light on this? It's not meant for npcs at all, but played sims. I play rotationally and with autonomy off. Sometimes a NAP would attach itself to one of my sims while they were spawned as game-controlled visitors at a venue. When I loaded their households to play them, they would still autonomously do actions relating to the NAP. To me that was gamebreaking, I don't want my active household do things on their own.

Thanks to your and simvasion's mods I can play Sims 4 in my preferred game mode again. Than you !

This is basically to fix this bug: https://answers.ea.com/t5/Bug-Repor...ed/td-p/9351944

I was looking for something that people that aren't happy to use mods, can put in and then after fixing their saves take out again and Basemental was kind enough to make this.

So basically this is for folks that were affected from the fixed bug where NAPs from all Neighborhoods would be applied to Sims (and never taken away) .. which now has been fixed but is still an issue for people that have had them stuck before the fix or for rotational players that often get the issue on active Sims as Enki described above.

I have more info here: https://sims4.crinrict.com/eng/2020...-over-and-over/

So basically, the ideal thing is to put it in once, fix your broken save, then take it out again but if you play rotationally, you might run into issues again. If you're not opposed to mods and do play rotationally I recommend using Simvasions mod until the bug above is also fixed.

Thanks for clarifying. I have updated the mod description to better describe what it is about.

I was just eating out at a restaurant and someone came over and stole the table we were eating at along with four other tables in the restaurant. I cant even request a new table or pay my bill because there is no table to click. These developers have to realize how silly their ideas are. I didn't care for this pack before but now I really hate it. I hope this mod will fix this "feature."

Regardless, thanks for this Basemental.

@Nintai You need to make sure Sharing is Caring is not active in the neighborhood or they will steal with or without mods.

Basically, load a household that is in the same hood that the restaurant is in and make sure it's not active. If it is, use cheats to remove it from the hood.

I did, actually. Tried "N.A.P. stands for" and "Basemental Mod N.A.P. stands for" and got a variety of answers or no answer at all that made sense. Which is why I asked the creator of the mod, the OP.
But thank you for answering my question.

Thanks for the reply. I have turned NPC voting off from the beginning and don't vote myself. I guess it would be possible for it to be active somehow. I will look into that.

@Nintai That sounds rather curious. If you turned off voting from start, it shouldn't be active unless there's another bug. Do check if it's active, if not. If not, do run this mod to make sure that all stuck commodities for all Sims are removed.

Nice! This is awesome work. I'm definitely recommending it. There are a LOT of users with broken sims thanks to this horrible bug. This will help to alleviate a lot of problems!

I will surely try this. as I also play rotationally. I play in 2 neighboorhoods. First NH I put my own families in and 1 household I moved to the vampire n-hood, because I wanted to try play vamps in vamp n-hood too. Can I have the eco-behaviors and the voting still activated, playing rotation? Or do I have to curb it all?
Thankyou very mutch, of to try now.
