The maximum value of an item that can be stolen has been limited to 1000 simoleons for non-residential lots.

Homework books are not allowed to be stolen.

On non-residential lots, some items have been removed from the list of swipeable goods including stereos, musical instruments, TVs, computers, living chairs, stools, sinks, counters and tables which are considered as required items for multiple venue types including bars, lounges and more.

Sims are not allowed to target objects in apartment lobbies – this caused lot breaking issues if the apartment trash chute was stolen by sims with the Recycle Disciple trait.

Sims will only target objects on the active lot (the buildable area) and not items in the open world (off-lot public areas).

To protect important items from being stolen, this mod makes the following changes: Visit the thread and click “me too” to raise its importance for hopefully getting an official patch fix. You can read more about this bug at EA Answers HQ: Objects disappear from lots/NPC stealing (with and without NAP). The items chosen for swiping can be unlimited value and from these types of furniture: lights, easel, couch, computer, TV, stereo, instrument, living chair, video game, vase, stool, art, pet bowl, pet toy, book, sink, counter and table. This seems to happen for festival furniture in San Myshuno, although the items seem to remain in place and get labled as stolen instead of actually being swiped. While this behaviour is intentional, this can cause issues if the sims choose items that are out in the open world area where you can’t go into build mode and replace them. Similar behaviour can be performed by sims with the Recycle Disciple trait – if they haven’t recycled anything for a while, they get tense and autonomously begin swiping items to break down. If the Sharing is Caring NAP is enabled, sims will be encouraged to swipe items. You can read more details about these issues below. Tweaks to some of the interactions in Eco Lifestyle expansion pack to prevent some issues reduces certain interactions from being pushed too often (like baking cakes, brewing stress relief potions or giving fake bad news) puts some limitations on NPCs stealing furniture from non-residential lots and fixes issues with NAP Inspectors and NAP autonomy.
