      And like, look how easy this was! It would literally be so easy to just make this an apartment lot type. It can't possibly be that difficult to code into the game. If they made the university dorms and high schools customizable, they totally can for us to make custom apartments.

    I really hope in The Sims 5 that we get the ability to zone areas- like we can have a lot with we can zone some of it as a retail store, a section as a cafe, and a section as residential. I would love to be able to create apartments above stores and have sims actually have it as their primary address. It would allow us to build our own apartment blocks, and we could separate the areas using this sort of method. Building custom apartments are always so fun! Thoroughly enjoyed this video!

  • @infinitelytired3721
    @infinitelytired3721 Před rokem +49

    An apartment lot type I think would be easy to implement. It still wouldn't be like San Myshuno at all but they could like have some simple math tied to the bills, so like when you're building the lot in the menu you would select how many apartments there are, and divide the bills by that number. So if your bills were for example $800, but you're living on an apartment lot with 4 apartments, you would only have to pay $200. It'd also work well for duplexes and townhouses, or even just regular houses with roommates, since the roommates are kind of sort of freeloaders who occasionally give you their pocket change and call it rent.
    They could also like you know how on a scale you can like place like a bowl or something on it, and then set it to zero so it only measures anything you add after that point? A system where you could set the lot cost to zero after building the apartment, and the other apartments you aren't using would work well too.
    Or it couldn't be easy, because I don't know how coding games works lol.

      @infinitelytired3721 Před rokem +2

      ​@@alicynsenior4952 I don't think it's completely dumb since people are playing in these fake apartments currently and just pretending they're real, but it is dumb that EA couldn't just implement an apartment building feature in the first place which restricted apartments to only two worlds (at first we thought San Myshuno would be the only apartment world). Either way it's just a simple idea to make people's gameplay a little easier, it'd probably work better as a mod rather than an actual implementation to the game anyways since EA would likely get backlash for not just letting us build apartments in the first place. :D

    There's actually a trick you can use to place multiple elevators on the same lot, by simply using a room with the elevator from the Gallery.
    I think it's even functional, meaning Sims will use them to get to other elevators on the lot, although they're sadly not animated and Sims will simply phase in and out.
    And it doesn't check whether each elevator is lined up into a single column either, so make sure there's only one elevator on each floor, each of them lined up with each other.

    I had the same issue. One of my sim wanted to cook (despite his own counters were available) on the downstairs "neighbor" 's counters even with locked doors, da hell whyyyy? 🤦🏻‍♂
    11:55 don't worry Kayla, you look fine and, most important thing, STAY SAFE and enjoy the holidays! 🎄

    I was watching this video and all of these ideas popped up in my head!! Maybe a couple that wants to start a family moves in, a single person, a single parent and their child... So many possibilities! (They'd all be in the same household, so I would have to be mindful of the 8 person limit, but I digress.)

    I'm currently furnishing them as a rainbow solid color challenge! Each apartment is themed after a different color of the rainbow!
