A way to make Sims not move/avoid autonomy

[thatruth25]

I'm trying to film a scene, but the sims involved keep leaving the site and going off to do other things. It's making things difficult, and I was wondering if there were any mods to make a sim sit still/not engage in autonomy when I am not controlling them.

I think in the options menu disabling autonomy has two modes, only for selected sim and for entire household. I'm not sure though I haven't played in a while but you can do a quick check yourself its in the Gameplay tab in the Game Options

With S4CL https://github.com/ColonolNutty/Sims4CommunityLibrary/releases/download/v1.77/sims4communitylib.v1.77.zip you may use the cheat console on active sims: `s4clib.add_buff 169901` and `s4clib.add_buff 169901 sim_id` (or "first last names" instead of sim_id) for other sims. It will add `buff_Suppress_AllAutonomy` to the sim.

The sim may still move away, but less often. You may no longer be able to interact with the sims, unless you run `s4clib.remove_buff 169901 [sim_id]` for each sim to get rid of the buff.
