You wanted to build a hotel to give a place to stay for all the tourists in your town. Your business gets approved but they gave you a lot in the middle of nowhere. Your job is to make this camp ground into the best hotel you can.
Note: This challenge can be pretty hard if you don't know what your doing as I lost one sim during the first winter while testing it and I also lost a lot of my stuff just before the first winter because a thief came to my lot and took a lot of stuff I couldn't replace right away. I also started out with 2 elders and 2 adults which makes it even harder because the elders don't make as much money from their jobs. Well onto the challenge and as this is my first challenge and I just finished it tonight I'd like to see any ideas or any rules that might need to be added/changed. But I also still want this to be hard.
Campground to Hotel challenge
Preparation:
You might want to start a new neighborhood for this challenge but isn't necessary.
Make the seasons Summer, Fall, Winter, Spring.
Build a 5x6 or 6x5 room and split it in the middle with a wall. Put 2 ResiStall Astro Divider toilets in each room. Put 1 simple or garden fresh sink in each room. Put 2 communal showers in each bathroom.
Put 1 of the action tents on the lot and a Logs of Burning in front of each tent.
Put one of the two cheapest outside gills that give a hunger of one outside and a mini fridge.
Put 2 Park Plates Mini Outdoor Dining Tables and 6-8 Outdoor Ergo chairs next to the tables.
Build a fence arround a 5x7 or 7x5 area and place 18 pleasant earth dirt patches. Don't forget to put a gate.
Place 10 birch tree samplings.
Make 4 sims that aren't related. One sim will be your main sim and you can choose his traits and everything you want. The other 3 sims use dice to randomize their traits and all that other stuff.
Once done move all the sims into the lot then use the family funds cheat to make it so you only have $1,000.
The rules while playing:
You can only command/use your main sim and on the first day you have to plant crops so your sims can eat.
Your main sim can't hold any jobs or use work benches, computers, art, ect to make any money. Your sim can still make art or make stuff with the work benches for decoration/robots but they can't sell any of it.
Only your sim can do any gardening.
If at any time your sim becomes a plantsim you must use a cheat or buy a potion to turn him back.
The other 3 sims you can only use once and that's to get them a job on the fist day of play. Think of the money you get from them as payment for staying in your camp/hotel grounds. While their off the lot it's them seeing sights on their vacation.
Because you are so far away from the city you can only buy and sell 2 items per day. If there's enough snow on the ground that you can make snowmen then the delivery truck can't make it to you.
For only the fist summer you can get groceries for the fridge. After that you have to grow your own food. Its also the only time your sim can leave the lot or if you get that free pc then you have to order from it then put it back in your inv until you make your office.
4 wall pieces and 10 foundations count as 1 item.
Selling anything you harvest won't count toward your 2 item per limit to sell.
Pleasant earth dirt doesn't go against your limit.
You can cut 1 tree down per day to make up to 4 wall pieces think as the extra money loss as labor.
2 greenhouse walls count as 1 item.
You can move existing walls as you please except for the bathroom walls. Think of the money you lose as labor here also.
You can move the bathrooms and walls once you get most of the hotel built up.
There's no electricity yet so you can't use anything that requires it. The one fridge you have is ran off a battery.
There aren't any radio or tv stations in your area yet so you can't use those items till some come along.
The fist and only 2 rooms you can build is your office/check in area and a greenhouse. Once the office is build the town will give you electricity. And phone lines.
When using the phone you can't call for any services/deliveries as you are too far away. The only services we offer are the fire department and police for legal reasons.
When a visitor is on the lot you can influence them to do stuff for you (including gardening) but you can't influence the other 3 sims that live on your lot.
Once the fist year is over you can choose to have us bring a radio or tv tower to your area. You can get them earlier if you donate $1500 for each tower. Once the second year passes we will build the second one.
We have a snow plower but don't have money to pay someone to drive it. If you want you can pay $500 for every winter if you want deliveries during that winter.
Once you have at least 1 hotel room for each of your clients the city will buy another delivery truck so you can buy and sell 2 more items per day. You can also buy your own trucks for $1000 each.
A hotel room must have at least 1 bed, a desk or table, chair, dresser, and an end table with a phone.
You can use all aspiration rewards except for any that raises needs. In fact any item that raises needs like the snap dragon or witches chair can't be used.
If one of your sims die you have to get rid of the money somehow. Either threw cheats or buying items and putting them in your sims inv.
For a tougher challenge you can make it so if a sim loses a job he can't get another one. Losing that extra income and still try to make it.
Well tell me what you think and how you like this challenge and any changes that might be needed.
