With the new “Grow Together” expansion, you can now let individual Sims stay overnight in your own household for several days. If you have invited the overnight guest, they appear with their suitcase and spend the set time in the household. Depending on how long you have chosen for the overnight visit, some players may ask themselves, how do you send the overnight guest home and get rid of them again? For “normal guests” you can simply select the appropriate interaction and send the Sim home. But how do you end an overnight visit and get rid of the guest?
End overnight visit and send guest home
As mentioned above, you cannot send the overnight visit home via an interaction. When you select the guest, at least in the current version there is nothing about “Send home” or “End overnight visit”. But there is a way to send the overnight guest home and that is via the calendar. Not only can you use the calendar to invite Sims to stay overnight for several days, but you can also easily end the action again. To do this, open the calendar in the game and the “overnight visit” should be displayed on the left side under the tab of the same name. In addition to a pen symbol, you can also see a bucket symbol with the label “Cancel overnight visit”. After canceling the visit via the calendar, the Sim packs his things and his suitcase and disappears.
- Click on the calendar icon at the bottom of the game and open the calendar.
- In the calendar view, scroll down on the left side and click on the trash can icon under “Overnight Visit.”
- Confirm the end of the “event” and the guest disappears.
Of course, you can invite the overnight guests you sent home again at any time and let them stay in the household for several days without permanently adding the Sim to your own household.
