This user has the following games installed:

simlogical auto teleporter + pescado's customer selector / no playable shoppers
Should the simlogical auto teleporter, for bringing in customers to a business, not be used in conjuction with pescado's customer selector or can they be used together? Do both objects summon customers or does the shrub summon while the customer selector only controls which ones would show up? I read the documentation for both but still somewhat confused about whether pescado's summons. I think it does?

I've never used the auto teleporter - didn't even know there was one. Pescado's Customer Selector (silver box) is meant to be used along with his Customer Selector Time Control (should be part of the same mod - looks like the base game red alarm clock and is found under Misc > Misc for $30). I never figured out how to use Pescado's version, but it's supposed to allow you to, for example, set one classification of customers during the day and another at night.
The support thread is at http://www.moreawesomethanyou.com/s...pic,5906.0.html, but it doesn't make much mention of the clock object. I know I've seen it mentioned over there somewhere - will keep looking. I need to check out Inge's version - sounds more user friendly.

FEATURES: For ages, OFB businesses have been hampered by one thing: The inability to target your business at a specific clientele without random idiots showing up who don't fit the profile you want. With this shiny gray box, there are now dozens of configurations to choose from! For optimal results, it works best with the new version of noplayableshoppers, and the new Business Controller. It will function alone, but noplayableshoppers causes the normal spawner to yield to the Customer Selecter rather than having to fight. Although if you don't have it, the Customer Selector is prepared to do battle against it. SHIFT-Click while in debug mode gives an option to reset all options to default. How to use it: Buy the controller block (small gray box in Misc/Misc for §1) and place on lot. There are three choices for each option - OR, NOT and AND Depending on the option, they're either set at OR or NOT by default. A setting of NOT will disallow a sim from being acceptable to this block if they have the NOT-characteristic. A setting of AND will allow a sim ONLY if they have that characteristic. A setting of OR will allow a customer if they satisfy the above and any requirements for visitation as normal. You can make blocks that configure customer interest settings as well, targetting Sims who are looking for something specific like Entertainment or a restaurant. Timepiece - Another gray box in the Misc/Misc catalog for §30, which turns into an alarm clock when placed. (This is either wrong or outdated - it's ALWAYS looked like an alarm clock in my catalog.) You can attach it to one of the gray blocks and cause it to load a different policy at a specific hour. For optimal results, you should place two clocks per box, one to change it at a specific hour and one to change it back. This is helpful if you have a club that you want to be frequented by vampires at night, but regular Sims during daylight hours. The blocks are conveniently numbered with ID numbers so you can attach the clock to a specific block. There are import and export settings on the clock - import copies your current settings of that particular block onto the clock, saving them so you can order the clock to apply it at a specific hour. Export applies those settings back to the block right now so you can edit them and reimport them, or just because. Multiple controller block to create 'OR' groupings. If, for example, you want gay vampires or male robots, you can create one block with permissions for gay vampires, and another block for male robots. That way these two specific groups show up and you don't have to override one or the other. Simply place more than one controller. |

@RoxEllen1965 - Once I get to playing the game, I'll try to report back here about using one and/or both. Sounds like I only need the one.
