In my hood, thieves seem to be in agreement that the best possible target is a house with a baby in it. And the police academy seems to teach all Simville police officers that babies find it very reassuring to be informed of any rewards or insurance claims related to the robbery, because they all barge in to the nursery to stand at the crib and talk to the baby about it. In light of the recent crime wave in my hood where multiple households with babies were robbed, I have decided my cops need to be taught some common sense and talk to someone actually able to understand what they are saying, for a change.
What is this?
This is a global mod that affects police logic after catching a robber. It only affects positive outcomes where the robber is caught, since cops seem more sensible about dealing with thieves that got away. With this mod, instead of choosing the Sim with the highest ID number which seems to be what they do, they choose according to age. If there is an adult or elder present, they will head over and talk to that Sim. If there is no adult or elder present, they will choose a teen. If no teen available, they will talk to a child, and only if all those options fail will they talk to a toddler or baby.
Compatibility
Base game compatible. Will work fine with any EP or SP.
Conflicts
None that I know of. Will only conflict with mods affecting the bhav controlling talking to the family after catching a thief.
Credits
MTS for the theme that gave me the idea to stop just being annoyed at cops bothering babies, and go do something about it.
Update: Felt like adding a second picture for fun. No changes done to anything else

About my creations
--- Currently retired from creating due to health reasons ----
--- Hanging out in Sim Crafters discord group ---
--- No longer sharing content on MTS ---
I hope to return one day but for now consider me retired, and my uploads unsupported.
Hello! If you ever downloaded something of mine, thank you! It's a great feeling seeing something you spent time on be useful to someone else in their game, and with all the great CC out there I'm very flattered you would choose to get something of mine.
I do not take requests! Please don't PM me with requests, I won't respond. I do sometimes make things for people, but only when I see someone wishing for something on the forums and I feel like making it for them. So if you have a mod you wish would exist, make a post in Hacks and CC that you'd like to see!-thread. That's what it's there for after all! :)
A shoutout to VioletPadfoot for inspiring me to try creating, long ago. You gave me the nudge that got me started, and I'm very grateful. I'd also like to thank all of the wonderful experienced creators (gdayars, justJones, maybesomethingdunno, NixNivis and many more) out there that wrote the tutorials I've used, or that has answered my questions when I've gotten stuck. You guys are what makes learning fun, and what inspires me to keep expanding my knowledge with new projects. Special thanks to Michelle who has helped me a lot when it comes to objects and recolors, and BoilingOil who taught me some modding basics that I needed when I started modding more seriously.
Policy
For my mods (global mods/modded objects) I would like to be asked before you share something based on my work. I'll probably say yes, but I'd still like to be asked :) If I'm no longer around, then you are free to do whatever you like, but as long as I'm still active I'd like to be asked first. If the mod thread itself says policy is open, then that specific creation is open and you are welcome to do what you like with it.
Because I suck at making textures for recolors, I mostly edit things that already exist. Thank you to all you creators out there with open policies that allow me to do so. If you want to use something of mine for an unrelated project and I based mine on someone elses texture, please make sure you check their policy too. With my own textures you may use however you like. Exception to this rule are default replacements. Do not make default replacements using my creations. You can PM me and ask permission, but the answer is most likely no.
Other sites
Only share content on tumblr now. Still retired though so probably nothing, but if something new comes out, that's where it'll be. You can find it linked here on my profile.
