  • Steps to Reproduce:
    Unsure. If it helps I am playing in the “203 Somerset Place” lot.
    All house doors (3 of them) are set to “Family Only”
    I’ve had 10 NPCs in 2 days still enter my house, eating my food and using my items. One also stole a laptop.
    I think this might be lot-based. But cannot be certain.

Found this one out while designing my new cozy house.
This has been happening for a long time, and it would be nice to finally squash this one.
Thank you for addressing !

If he’s Zoi’s best friend she wouldn’t mind if he stole it. But it makes no sense for her to do that if she’s a complete stranger. As seen in the picture it was “Stranger Zoi” anyway.
