'''Alien abduction''' is an event that can happen in ''[[The Sims: Livin' Large]]'', ''[[The Sims Bustin' Out]]'', ''[[The Sims 2]]'', ''[[The Sims 2 (console)]]'', ''[[The Sims 3: Seasons]], ''and ''[[The Sims 4: Get to Work]]''. During this event, an [[alien]] will temporarily kidnap a [[Sim]] via an unidentified flying object. It can happen to a Sim who is using a [[telescope]] to stargaze at night. Every one of the abducted Sim's [[motives]] go haywire while they are on board the craft, and they return a few hours later.[[File:The Sims Castaway Stories Alien Abduction.jpg|thumb|200px|A Sim dropped off after being abducted in ''The Sims Castaway Stories''.]]
 
By default, alien abduction is disabled in ''[[The Sims Castaway Stories]]'', but it can be enabled with mods,<ref>[http://www.sims2workshop.com/index.php?page=Thread&threadID=2810 Alien Abduction Hack Castaway] at ''Sims2Workshop''</ref> and male pregnancy works in the game. It works and look much like in ''The Sims 2''.

Line 33 ⟶ 31:
 
A player who ''wants'' a Sim to be abducted can use "[[testingcheatsenabled|boolprop testingcheatsenabled true]]", then shift-click any telescope, and select '''''be abducted'''''. This cheat does not work after ''Seasons'', or ''Bon Voyage'' is installed. It also will not result in the Sim having the memory of alien abduction, but will still result in pregnancy for male adult Sims 6 or more days away from the elder stage.

The UFO in the game is based on the one from [[w:c:simcity:SimCity 3000|SimCity 3000]].

Alien abduction returns in ''[[The Sims 4: Get to Work]]''. An abduction can occur anytime at night (910 pm- 4 am). When an abduction does occur, the Sim will stop whatever they're doing and go to "Investigate Weird Light". The Sim will then be beamed up by a blue light into a UFO and be flown off. The Sim will be returned a couple of hours later with a moodlet pertaining to aliens and abduction.
 
The interaction "Investigate Weird Light", which replaces all items in a Sim's queue at the beginning of the event, cannot be canceled.<ref>Although abductions cannot be stopped in ''The Sims 4'', there is a [https://deaderpoolmc.tumblr.com/tagged/mcccrelease mod] that allows the player to prevent them.</ref> However, it can be stopped by blocking the Sim's way to the weird light, such as locking the doors for the Sim.
 
Both female and male Sims, including aliens, can be abducted. Only males will return with a 25% chance of alien pregnancy, while females will only receive the moodlet.
 
Sims in the [[Science (career)|scientist]] or [[medical]] profession are more likely to be abducted. The satellite dish, andthe Out of this World Desktop, the worm hole generator, and space rocks also increase the odds. The satellite dish and the Out of this World Desktop can also be used to contact aliens (with a 24h cooldown), which may trigger an abduction.
