Sketch793 True, you can use the teleportation pad, but (without cheating, at least), you can only place it on a lot your sims own, which means a vacation home and a level 3 visa anyway. I don't know how the Eyes of Horus work because I've never tried, but can you drag one of them out of inventory and place it on a lot far away from your sim?
I don't remember exactly how they work but that's close. I think you drag one eye to a nearby floor or wall, and drag the other eye to a floor or wall where you want to go, then click on the one close to you. It's a good idea to put them back in your inventory right away, so you don't lose them or forget where you put them. They can save you a lot of travel time and even get you into places that are normally unreachable.
