No Unwanted Stuff in Inventory & no going broke new version available(4/22/06)

[MissDoh]

Sometimes when the line is too long at the cash register, Sims will just drop their bags and leave the shop without paying (it actually apply for any reasons they will drop a bag).  This prevent this from happening meaning they should pay for what they buy no matter what.

Hope this answer help you.

I've been using the noplayableshoppers hack, but I am delighted to see this!  I missed not seeing "my" Sims at the shops...nothing but townies gets old fast, lol.  Thank you so much for this, and for all of your wonderful hacks that have made my gameplay so much more enjoyable!

Squinge, I officially love you!
Just one question: How exactly does this work? Do just buy the item and then dump the bag before they leave without being angry?

They purchase the item then I have it not charge them & remove it from their inventory after they pay for it.
 
edit:I used the same function to remove items that the game called when they would throw down the bag  to remove what they didn't purchase.

Though I will test it more, I notice that with the nobagthrowing my Sims will go in line after they buy only one item instead of doing multiple purchases like they use too, I have not seen blue bag since I install it.  

Some of them will repurchase but others will just stay on the lot doing nothing than sitting and going to the bathroom, I have to go see each of them and say goodbye, I thought the nowindowshopping mod would prevent that from happening.

Some sims will always just hang out without buying anything at all the window shopping is different from hanging out & not buying anything.

I read again the nobagthrowing post and I misunderstood it.

But is it normal they only do 1 purchase and then automatically go to the register to pay?  Before I install it, I had the same Sim purchase 3 or 4 items sometimes and then only it got to the cash register with a blue bag meaning it purchase a big amount.  

Or maybe I just did not play long enough to see it happen?  Do Sims do multiple purchases on your business lots with the nobagthrowing version?

Yes they have in my game before some sims only buy 1 item & others would buy 3 or more items.

[MissDoh]

Yeah, I enlarge one of my bussinesses yesterday and they now started to do multiple purchases.  I was glad to see that

Sorry for the false alarm.  Oh and with or without the nowindowshopping they were hanging doing nothing like you said. I still have no clue of what the nowindowshopping will stop and if it does happen often enough to add this mod in.  Maybe when a business reach a higher level it is easier to spot?

The window shopping is more noticeable on residential lots they will just look in your windows then leave.
 
edit: Try playing a home business without the window shopping hack & you will see what I mean.

[MissDoh]

Well it makes sense now, I don't have any home business right now all my sims are owning community lot.

I will download and install the home business version since it does not seem to happen on community lot or on very rare occasion as far as I know.

thanks for the details

4/22/06 I just fixed a reported bug with the no bag throwing it's now fixed.

[HelloKit]

Has this been checked for Pets compatibility, and will it also stop playables from keeping pets they buy autonomously?

[Squinge]

the pets version is still in testing & hasn't been posted yet

[JadeEliott]

I do NOT have Pets, but want to know if I run a lot with the electrono ticket thingy, will the sims who are paying have the funds disappear from their household funds?

Or does this mod just apply to shopping for items?

Thanks!

[Squinge]

This just applies to shopping items.
