Community lot: Difference between revisions

Sims can perform the same actions on community lots as they do residential lots. [[Babies]] and toddlers[[toddler]]s can visit community lots with an [[adult]] Sim. Community lots can only be placed on designated areas in the neighborhood. [[Time]] is no longer held static when a Sim visits a community lot. Several community lots arehave [[rabbit holeshole]]s. Sims can be a partner of certain [[rabbit holes]], but can own any community lot provided they have enough money. These options are only shown when the household has enough Simoleons[[Simoleon]]s to perform the action. Sims can visit community lots by [[walking]], riding a [[bike]], or taking an [[car|automobile]]. There are no loading screens when a Sim visits a community lot. Other Sims in the world can freely visit community lots in real-time, and will usually be pushed to visit lots where a Sim from the active household is currently visiting.

In the base game, with no expansions or updates{{which}}, Sims get deeds[[deed]]s to the community lots they own. These deeds give the Sims the ability to receive money from the shops. These deeds can be passed around the household, as long as the Sims receiving them are teenagers or older. If a Sim carrying a deed dies, their deeds will go to the eldest household member. If a Sim carrying a deed moves out of the house, the deed will go with them, and the household will have to buy it from the establishment.

After updates and expansions are installed{{which}}, the deeds will be removed; Sims can easily buy lots through the [[phone]] or [[computer]], or by going to [[city hall]]. The ownership of an establishment will go to the whole household, and teens and aboveolder can go pick up the money.

There are several classes of community lots, largely determined by [[lot assignment]]s. Upon release, the game determined these classifications according to the objects on the lot, but a patch altered this.{{which}} They are now set either in the [[Create a World]] tool or from a drop down menu in edit town mode.
