- HotBlackSand5 years agoSeasoned AceLet me translate what the townies were saying when they walked past the ticket booth and straight inside.
"You can pay as much as you want, but as for me ... Go Pound Sand!
I didn't come here to walk through the door, and I'll pay for my drinks at the bar." ... :D
. - IreneSwift5 years agoSeasoned AceThe game just doesn't take care of all the little details of the other sims' finances. You have to just pretend they have tickets, right along with all the other things we have to pretend have happened or are happening.
- Here is a tutorial:

Some people use this instead:
http://www.simlogical.com/ContentUploadsRemote/uploads/1078/ - I know how to use it lol I already set the locks and stuff for red ticket :)
But it's okay I figured it out, inactives don't actually go to the ticket machine and do the animation. They just have 10 simoleons deducted and magically get a card in their inventory.
That's a shame, why even have the ticket machine if it isn't needed? Would it have killed them just to include the animation for inactives? -_-
But at least its working as intended, when I viewed that person's inventory the card must have expired. I've been checking again and they all have them. - This was actually made fun of some time ago in that the game falters on so many important details but there is no way in heck that a resident sim can get through the ticket machine barrier without being charged and issued a ticket. Yes, without the animations but that does help cut down on queues forming to use the machines and get into the pay for entry area. That §10 or whatever is apparently of the utmost importance to the game while the rest of the world might or might not be forgetting where they left their expensive cars, not charged for property taxes (without mods), and otherwise glitching up all over the place.
Sims who work on the lot, such as Role Sims, as I recall shouldn't be charged or blocked from entry.
It's a surprisingly well-made store item. But for those who would like even more flexibility, we also offer extensive door lock/fee for entry options with what is now the current version of NRaas GoHere. I use a combination of both, on different lots that is, in my worlds. :) "igazor;c-17596882" wrote:

yep I use gohere (well, i use pretty much all NRAAS mods so :P), but that's on my home lot. I like the idea of charging for tickets on community lots :)
i put one outside our bedroom as a test, so now my simhusband had to pay $10 to enter and woohoo his sim-wife. i always make other household members NPCs, and just like inactives, he walked past ticket and through the door but $10 was deducted from household funds so. all good- I have to admit that I never thought of using the ticket machine on a home lot, at least not quite that way. How much does she charge for other sims to enter or is this a flat rate deal, no specials or discounts? :p
GoHere can be used on community lots; that's much of the point of its own fee for entry, time of day, and one-way door options, but there's just no tangible ticket objects involved. They are under Door Options and are not be confused with EA's own door locking mechanisms that appear alongside of them on residential lots. - :open_mouth: you can charge a fee under gohere?
how do i keep finding new things out about these mods :D
well i'd never have bought the barrier system if i knew that :D thanks I'll play around with it - IreneSwift5 years agoSeasoned Ace

Wow, I'm going to check into that!
For the game I was playing when my computer quit working, I had put barrier to entry on every venue that we would have to pay for in real life. But there were more than four, so sims could have bought a ticket for one and gotten into another one free. I tried the workout costs money for the gym, but I felt $150 for one workout session was ridiculous, so removed that mod and went with barrier to entry instead. I also didn't like having to replace some of the doors or put up fences and gates, so it would be great to not have to do that.
Does Go Here allow the player to choose the amount of the entry fee? Some things should cost more than others, and I would like to have that option. "IreneSwift;c-17597584" wrote:

Yes! I used that mod too, removed it since buying barrier to entry, that's what I use it for too. I put it on gyms and pools and stuff :)
You can assign multiple tickets by the way.
So say for gym you need both green and red, but for pool you need both red and blue etc. for private venue perhaps you need all 4 tickets, costing $40 entry total. etc :)
