Who the hell do you think you are?
baratron:
Merola's Mind Control Mirror is good for this. You can make the visiting sim selectable for just long enough to see their motives and get them away from an annoying object, and then they carry on as normal autonomous visitors.

...and then go right back to the pool table, the little sneaks. :D

Lol, seing all your posts make me wonder about one thing though... why do you keep those visitors on the lots if you find them all so annoying? You could just say goodbye to them the minute they are brought back from work or school. Well that is what I do when I planned other things to do for my Sims.
I sure hope you are not referring to the one's you invited on purpose to your house since what do you expect they do, sit on the couch and look at the walls for 4 hours so your other Sims would have time to do their stuff :P
However, I do agree that they tend to use the most playful items all the time and one thing that drives me nuts is when I am working with a new family which don't have a lot of fun items, they sit in front of the tv and turn it on and off every 2 seconds! That does drive me nuts! Also seing them play the guitar for 6 hours straight when I invited them over is a bit too much for me, I just want to break the damn guitar on their heads ;D . But guests wants to have some fun and I don't mind they get it by themselves if they don't exagerate.
I find it normal if I invite a Sim at home that it will join the family to eat, if I don't want them to eat with the rest of the family I simply say goodbye to them before the meal is serve. I can always call them back later and invite them over or simply talk to them if I want to make friend with them.

It's so annoying when you place one of your Sims way up on the third floor to play one of the computers in one of the bedrooms to have a damn visitor immediately upon arrival make their way up there and complain to me that they can't play that computer because your Sim is playing it. I mean come on, they just bypassed at least 3 other unoccupied computers (and probably more expensive ones) on their way up there, but nooooo, they want to play that with that one. Ugh!
I have the same problems with the bathrooms too, I get so angry at them that I use the cheat "move objects on" and delete them. I found that technique pretty much solves all my visitor problems for me ;D

I also would love a hack for nightlife that sims can cook for more than six residents.the way it is now to feed 16 children and adults at the same time I have to have 3 stoves and three refrigerators so enough food can be prepared for the entire family.
I use the smartserver mod from Dizzy2. It cooks as many meals as there are hungry Sims (discounting the non-hungry ones). It also cooks for visitors, so there is enough to go round. It 16 meals are needed, 16 will be cooked. If 3 are needed, 3 will be cooked. Wouldn't be without it now. Even children can cook meals for the entire household, although they can't serve them so will just leave them for everyone to help themselves. Sims won't autonomously cook only for themselves, they will always cook for everyone, but you can instruct them manually to just cook the one meal if you want to.
