For a hot second I read that title as something that'd let me dump babies in a dumpster.

If only there were a way to stop sims from autonomously dumpster diving, that would be great....

I believe it's possible in the tuning -- want me to have a look?

You could if you'd like and have the time to do so ... no big deal. I was just always so annoyed that sims autonomously dumpster dive when in the vicinity of a dumpster in general.

Now, there's an idea for a mod ... Search dumpster for babies with the option to adopt them!

There is a way - NRaas Retuned mod can stop them from autonomously dumpster diving, I use NRaas Retuned to stop my sims from doing a lot of autonomous stuff.

1. Download NRaas Retuned, then open your game and find a dumpster
2. Click on dumpster, then NRaas Retuned, then general
3. Click on dumpster dive, then click allow autonomous, and it will change from
allow autonomous - true to
allow autonomous - false

and that's it

Thank you, JQ King... This is the only mod I was able to find that was associated with dumpster diving. Now I'm guessing that the NRaas Retuned mod will be compatible with most of the other NRaas mods like master controller, story progression, woohooer, etc?

Thank you, JQ King... This is the only mod I could find that was associated with dumpster diving. Since this Retuner is from NRAAS, I'm guessing that there will be no conflict with most of the other NRAAS affiliated mods? Thanks again.

Dumping babies in a dumpster?... now that would make dumpster diving seem worthwhile, especially if your sim could rescue them.

For the child stretching maybe you could have them "disappear" into the dumpster as they dive? Sort of like sims woohooing? If that's even possible. Seems cool though!

Unfortunately I wouldn't know how, but thanks for the suggestion!
