How do I disable the adoption of horses?
« on: August 16, 2023, 10:21:51 PM »
My sims visited the Zest trailer sim-today to look around at the dig sites in Bedrock Straits.
As soon as we got home, MCCC sent us a notification that the Zest household.
I don't mind households in Chestnut Ridge adopting horses, but I don't want horses in the other towns outside of Chestnut Ridge.
Is there any way to stop the autonomous adoption of horses?

I looked through the MCCC settings I didn't find a related setting.
For now, whenever I get an auto-adotion notice, I'll simply go to Manage Households and delete the horse.
The Zest household has no facilities for caring for a horse and I have no desire going around building stables for every non-active household that adopts a horse.
I guess I hould start a thread a EA Answers HQ....

Oh that's weird and definitely not sensible. I haven't had that so far. At least dogs and cats don't need much. Maybe disabling dog & cat adoption would stop it for now as a short term solution?

Ha ha, I knew you'd get this pack just for the new world!

@Granny Lawlor

Yes, I definitely wanted a new world and I'm also interested in the nectar-making, but horses don't interest me at all.
Thank you for the Naaay-borhood Stories solution.
I'd considered that, too, but read a thread in Reddit by someone with a similar issue and they said disabling Adoption in NS didn't work for horses.
It's probably some for of karmic retribution for the many times I've posted that I don't want horses, LOL!
