Inventory

An Inventory is a feature introduced with Unleashed for The Sims and Nightlife for The Sims 2. It allows Sims to carry around a number of items no matter where they go.

The Sims
Items can be placed in a Sims inventory by interacting with the item. Items you receive from other characters are directly placed into your inventory.

The Sims 2
Some items (such as cell phones, hand held games, etc.) are immediately placed in here upon purchasing them, and others must be manually moved.

To put an item in your Sim's inventory, first make sure you are in inventory mode by clicking its button near the Aspiration rewards button at the bottom of the screen. You should now be able to click and pick up any object (within reason). Simply drag the item into the inventory bar and click. To exit the inventory, just click any other button on the screen.

Note: Items in your inventory cannot be removed while on a Community lot.
