Obscure question regarding an NPC in Sims 2 University?
So, one of my created University Sims moved into a rental house and asked an NPC, "Holly Dallas," to move in with him (eventually they'll probably be married). The thing is, Holly is one of those cheerleaders that randomly and OFTEN busts into Sim frats, dorms, and houses and starts doing the school cheer spontaneously! It's really starting to bug me, because she hasn't stopped doing it spontaneously even though I control her in my household now.
Also, there's no action in the upper left hand corner like there should be, to X out. She just starts dancing, or follows my Sims around and starts cheering! Is there a boolprop cheat or anything to get her to stop this? Thanks, I know this is an obscure question...
Turning off free will was a great idea but it didn't work, which really surprised me. I turned off the Household free will under options but she STILL cheers, I'm thinking because it's not really considered an "action," (no box in the upper left corner) she just is almost always doing it and following people around to cheer.
Also, her job isn't cheerleader, though that was a good idea too. Now her behavior isn't so much annoying as just mystifying, because I'm sure there's a way to get her to stop. Good ideas though! Thanks for answering.

Well as you know Holly Dallas is an NPC, not a Townie or a Downtownie, and as such has certain BHAV codes that can only be altered perhaps with SimPE. Cheerleading is one of these BHAVs. BTW have you ever randomly run into NPCs that you can't make selectable or interact with at all? I think I've met 2 or 3 (apart from the obvious ones like Mrs. Crumplebottom, firemen etc) and they're really freaky. One of my Sims brought one along to another Sim's house (the old 'do you mind if I bring a friend' dialog) and the NPC couldn't even be greeted or spoken to and just disappeared into the night. So it woud seem there's different classes of NPCs as well..interactive and not.
Anyway I'm really interested to know whether you can change Holly's clothes and also whether she has any memories.

I've looked on numerous web sites and can't find anything to stop her cheering. I've never controlled a cheerleader in the game, so I haven't tried to change her behaviour.
Is her job "cheerleader?" If it is, make her quit. Can't think of anything else. Maybe I'll take one over next time I play and see if I can get her to stop being such a knob.
Good one RWS. I completely forgot about free will. Yes, remove here free will, make here a drone. When your sim's graduate, you can give her back her free will.
