I don't know if I've said it in a reply here or when my mods were on MTS, but I won't be dumbing down the default computers any more than I have already. Lest those community cyber cafes and library comps become nothing more than décor objects. Though, having said that, I do at some stage intend to clone a few models of the computers and have them governed by new XMLs I'll make specially for them, thus rendering them totally non-autonomous. So that you can have them at home knowing household sims or invited guests aren't going to jump on them straight away for the rest of the day. It's certainly on my list of things to do, but I can't give an ETA on that right now.

That would do it then. Custom objects for played homes would solve it easily.

But is there a way to differentiate between an object's 'attraction' (or whatever it is--I don't code TS4) for played sims versus NPCs? Is the attractiveness of objects completely based solely on the object or is there some sort of hook where you could treat a played household differently from NPCs?
