gave pet away so i gave my pet away to Christy Stratton (a townie) and i then i invited her over and my sims want is Percy (the puppy) joins the family. how do i get the dog back from her without taking control of her? thanks!
Hmm..You probably should have paused the game and used the moveobjects code while she was in the house. The only choice you have now is to either control her and have her move into your house, make her move out, and leave the puppy at your house. Soo yeah. If anyone has any better ideas do tell, because Im curious as to another solution to this.
Invite Christy over with the pet ... then Ctrl + Shift + C BoolProp testingCheatsEnabled true Shift and click on Christy and choose the option: Make Selectable Now control Christy and get her to give the pet back. Afterwards select the resident sim and shift click on Christy again and choose: Make Unselectable or else she won't leave ... (if you ignore that step it won't matter cos she'll be gone the next time you load the house anyway. The pet should stay though ....
well when i invited her over the puppy didnt come but automatically my sims want wanted the "stray" to join the family so now i guess hes a stray? also i know this is off subject but i ordered groceries and the truck has been stuck there since and when i ordered groceries again now it wont come...how do i get the truck to leave?
1) Ctrl + Shift + C move_objects on 2) Click on the truck and delete it 3) Ctrl + Shift + C move_objects off (DO NOT FORGET THIS PART!) 4) Exit the property and save When you re-enter, the truck should be gone, and you should be able to order groceries again.
Where were you when my sims had to move out? I had a two-car pile up! (Groceries and pizza ... hey, my sims were HUNGRY ...)
lol well it worked! thank you so much and as soon as i did it he came back and i was like uh oh here we go again but he brought me my groceries that i'd ordered and he left! i'm still working on the puppy situation, i cant find him!
Why don't you justbefriend her, controll her and make her give you the puppy. That'll only take you about a minute.
I suspect that giving pets to townies is the best way to make new strays. Urr ... this townie ... She should report the pet missing. Did the doggy have a collar? Even if not they do seem to get returned eventually (based on my experience of one cat running off because it hated the dog). Get the townie to move in and then see if they have the option to report the missing pet. If so do it and wait for the animal to return ... (The animal's icon ought to appear on the pets bar if it's just run away ... try it anyway).
Puppies don't have collars so the chance of finding them is less than a pet with a collar. But I have a wolf that keeps running away and the first time she didn't have a collar either ... so there's hope.
