Clay and future cubes anyone?

Is anyone else getting an abundance of future cubes and clay in every one of their sims’ inventory? My sims could make quite a substantial living with all the future cubes and clay they constantly receive.

I don't have EL yet and I'm really glad I held off on this one!
I had these NAPs down to 8 potential good ones, because I knew the rest sounded far too obnoxious - I'm down to 5 at the most, more than likely 3 if they don't tune them down or outright fix them.
I even crossed the Foodies Unite off my list because I knew I would end up with grossly obese Sims, but I didn't expect it to be as bad as it turned out to be - apparently Sims come into your home and bake cakes...and bake cakes...and bake cakes...
From what I've read, the result of the NAPs is comparable to a certain disease in which I've heard that you can make the symptoms go away, but you're still infected. It seems that once you've experienced the play animations, they can still continue like it's stuck in a loop or something.
My sim never lived on the neighbourhood that had this nap on. He used to visit his girlfriend there. He wasn't a played sim by then...
After getting married and moving out, she (my played sim) doesn't has this nap thing but he (the non played sim at first) does.
I think that this will be a problem with rotation play. I think the sims not being played atm are the ones getting this autonomy buffs of reading a book or playing with clay... once we start playing them they keep this thing forever...
This! I haven't done it in a long long time and im not gonna do this again. It's unbeliveable but buying at release has disadvantages.
There really is no point in doing it unless you really want the pack... it's better to wait one or two months, maybe even wait for a sale so you can read what the pack is doing to your game and you can decide if you want to deal with it... or at least wait until modders can add some solutions...
I would only recommend this pack if you get some of Zero's and Simvasion's mods. Otherwise your sims inventories will be full of future cubes and clay and sims will destroy your community lots because they will steal furniture which is needed for the lot.
You can turn off NPC voting so they won't vote. And if none of the sims vote, no action plan should be enacted (even when the notification says one was).
Thanks Egon.....so for those who have the eco living expansion pack is this how it works then...turn off N.A.Ps and then no worries about the inventories of neighborhood folks filling up with objects?
I turned off NAPs and still had the same issues. What pretty much works for me is using a cheat to choose the NAPs for each neighborhood, and selecting the four NAPs that bother me least. When I don’t choose four, even though I have townie voting turned off, extra NAPs still get chosen for me by the game. I think the NAPs still get changed by the game occasionally, even with cheats and voting turned off and four NAPs selected, but much less often.
I'm not sure if the sims home neighborhood had the NAP enabled, but he has SO MANY CLAY in his inventory.
Is THAT what it is? I was wondering what the hell happened to the usually lean Björn Bjergsen...He must be stuck in a Cake Loop.
They only bake them, they don't eat them. Sometimes they don't even bake them. He and his Mrs. are always hanging around the pizzeria and festival food stands in my game. I think white cake issue is just a convenient excuse in his case.
Yeah, people have been saying that they have to clean up the mess left behind by Sims helping themselves to their kitchen facilities.
I had a Sim with the Foodie trait that would raid the fridge for leftovers even when the hunger bar was full - and that was pre-patch. I can only imagine the over-indulgence using this NAP where they constantly cook/bake. I...am...staying away...from...that one!
Oh believe me, good aul Björn certainly ATE them cakes...
