Stop Talking to Active Sim
Your Sim is cooking and someone in your household wants to chat.
Your Sim is on a date and someone you don't even know wants to chat.
Your Sim has the Loner trait and for some reason wants to chat.
Sims in The Sims 4 want to always and constantly chat while I just want to play my game without getting my Sims interactions interrupted like it was in previous sims games and not being forced to engage in social interactions, so now it won't happen anymore except for inactive/townie Sims.
This mod prevents other Sims from picking your currently active Sim for chatting. When you switch controlled Sim the newly created inactive hidden buff will be removed and the active hidden buff gets added, thus preventing other Sims to socialize with that Sim, while the Sim you just switched from, will get the inactive hidden buff, which means they can socialize with other household members or townies. There are other mods similar to this around, but they either prevent strangers only from conversing or disable chatting for all Sims, so I made this.
