Hello!
I was playing around with some tuning of the sims 3 game files where I tried to make the "Break into house" interaction from the ambitions expansion available to sims not in the private investigator career. I changed some of the tuning, tried adding some extra things, however it didn't work. I wonder, is it possible to make such a mod using simply tuning, or is this interaction hard-coded into the game, making it impossible to do so?

That interaction is core locked to private investigators with specific active opportunities. You'd need a script mod to change that.

Well, that's too bad. I'm not good with scripting but maybe I will try

I did find a script code someone had written back in 2010 for such a mod, but it was never finished. Perhaps its possible to add to it and finish it?

In my efforts of trying to make the "Break into house" interaction available for all sims I found a script code someone had written back in 2010 for such a mod, but it was never finished. Perhaps its possible to add to it and finish it? But I'm not sure what to add except perhaps XML and ITUN files?

There is a recomendation in this link that says to look at the "HouseCleaning For All Sims Mod" to use as reference, so I'm going to try that as well I guess.

I managed to add the "Break into home" interaction to residental lots in the game, bus as soon as the sim gets to the lot I clicked on, the sim just won't do it. The interaction disappears in the interaction queue when they get/are there. I'm not sure what I should add to the code to make it fully work. Can I please get some help? I can post the code here.

I got the Break Into House Mod to work now! At least it seems to work at first glance. I will be doing some more testing to really make sure it works.

Edit: It is working! HOWEVER. For some reason, your sim must have a job in order to do it, they must be employed. It's not much of an issues since it can be any job, a rabbithole job, an active career or they can be self-employed.

If there is a demand for this mod I might try to make it downloadable, I don't know where though, maybe ModTheSims

I've merged all your threads. In the future please keep related posts in one thread.

Did you remove all the code from the Test function of the interaction? That may be the source of the career block.
