Default Sims 3 Lot Types - All Expansions
Hi everyone

I was looking for a list of lot opening hours, and couldn't seem to find one all in one place. So... I've made one. It's basically an update to this thread -> http://modthesims.info/showthread.p...es#startcomment (NB Lot types are now set in Edit Town - no need for a certain number of certain types of objects)

This is very much a work in progress and any additional info can be added as it is found. I mostly just wanted the hours but as some other information is lot-type specific, it made sense to throw it in too. If you have or can confirm anything, please post and I'll update.

I would really like the opening hours of the salon to be confirmed. Will do some digging but help filling in this chart would be welcome.

Cheers and happy simming

Everything is ok in the end. If it's not ok, then it's not the end.

This looks very handy; thanks for putting it together. Would it be possible to add a column indicating the EP needed to make the lot type available in-game?

Good idea, added after name. I suspect with patches everybody should have Visitors Allowed and No Visitors Allowed, even though they didn't ship with the original game.

Thanks for this! The salon is always open but a stylist and tattoo artist are not always available. I will see if I can figure out their hours.

I've seen a different version of it from someone on here. It was more from a modders view, with more technical information. You should be a bit careful what you take on, because the level of diversity is massiv. Some of the zonings excludes some objects as well, do you want that to be a part of it as well.

Could you please post a link.

Also I don't think we'll need to fill in every. Single. Box. If the information is available I'll add it but there's no point beating ourselves up to finish it.

I use Buzzler's Build/buy restriction choker so am not worried about object availability.

I wasn't that clear on the objects. I mean like the barista bar from the uni exp didn't work with a NPC anywhere else than in a uni exp setup last time i checked. I also had a similar problem the basecamp. The bar didn't span (how do you write that again) an NPC among other things. I had lots of those problems when I made my worlds. I don't remember them all now. Of course all the objects that doesn't have a NPC on a residential lot, only commertial lots.

I remember it being a constant announce when i built my world.

I'll see if I can find a link.

I haven't had any issues with the Barista Bar thingy, worked just fine on community lots (of course!) in riverview and sunset valley. Have used it to make several cat cafes as it serves food and coffee and cleans up and I can focus on building the cats' play area.

BTW it's "spawn" and "annoyance" (I'm a languages teacher, I hope that was helpful rather than condescending!)

Cheers
