Stop kids from autonomously riding bikes?

The original catch all. General game help, banter, things you should probably put in the correct forum, This is the place.

sittingbear - I'm not sure which mod allows that, I may not have that one. I should though, considering how it annoys me. They so easily they get picked up by cops regardless of where they are which I think is completely stupid...at least when they are at a friend or family members house! I mean, who called the cops? In my sims case they are often visiting a cousin's home so, wtf aunt Betty! How rude! LOL

@JohnL83 the one I use is a tuning mode I made myself which combines several other tuning mods since they use the same XML. I think SP has options to turn off curfews but I don't have SP installed right now as I just got done doing some work on Twinbrook in CAW and I have to test the world in game for any issues.

The curfew options in SP are split between General Options (for overall) and Sim (Caste, Household, Town) Options for everything else. They all require the SP Extra add-on module.

There is another way where you can leave curfews in place but eliminate the police spawning to pick up the offending sim click on City Hall or any computer Nraas>Retuner>Settings>General>By Tunable XML>Sims3.Gameplay.Services>Police>kChanceOfPoliceSpawnAfterCurfew default 0.8 set to 0 and kTimeBetweenCurfewChecks default 30 set to 720 and kDistanceToGetTeensOnWorldLot default 45 set to 0.

Thank you guys for having this conversation too! I am a bit intimidated by the power Retuner offers me. I have done myself dirty and screwed myself all up by tinkering with the wrong settings just to see what they do :p Then I forget what all I tinkered with and end up blaming an innocent mod for the wonky game play.

I love having specific instructions for things like making it ok for kids to ride subways. Currently, my sim kids keep riding their brooms to school, its pretty far! I wish the bus just picked them up, but I must have turned off the buses because that doesn't happen anymore. Why cant the parents just GIVE THE KID A RIDE... I mean, like, without me telling them to. Because I forget. Off to install subways at/near schools!

Stop kids from autonomously riding bikes?

So how do you stop kids from getting a bike and make them take a taxi instead?
Only the subway option was answered, and there is no "taxi" under objects. It's not an option listed under "vehicle" either.
