Police
The Police is a type of NPC in The Sims, The Sims 2 and The Sims 3
The police will come when your alarm goes off or you call them when your house is robbed by a Burglar. The police will fight the burglar in an attempt to recover your stolen items. If the policeman wins, you will recover your stolen items as well as a §100 reward for the capture of the robber. If the policeman loses, the robber will escape with your items.
In The Sims, if your Sims throw a house party that lasts past 11 o'clock pm a policeman will arrive to break up the party.
Calling a false alarm to the police station in The Sims results in a stern warning. However, in The Sims 2, you will get a fine of §500. If you do not have enough money, they will take away one piece of furniture.
The police can also come if your Teen Sim runs away. After your teen Sim has leaves his parents can call the police to find him and bring him home. This leaves a bad memory in your teen Sim's memory. Sometimes, the police will also catch a teen Sim who sneaks out, as well.
- It helps to have a phone in the bedroom near the bed to minimize the distance you have to walk to make the call.
- If you have a burglar alarm, the cops will come right over. If you have to call them manually, they probably won't arrive in time.
- In The Sims 2, there is a 4:1 ratio the police officer will be a man rather than a woman.
