@puzzlezaddictThanks very much. I will try that next time. I already deleted that wish. By the way, got a quest about the findng Dong Huo's Key, then the inspecting hole in the back of the market is supposed to be flashing? but no signal at all. I didn't edit anything on the basement. Maybe..I shouldn't save it to the community lot bin in Edit town mode and replace it in China. I was disappointed in it, and now I'm in Egypt.
@aodoherty It's definitely possible that replacing the lot broke the quest. When your sim is back in China, I'd cancel and reassign the quest, then check to see whether the related items are present in the tomb. These are more sensitive to breakage than standard tomb objects, and in general, I'd say if you want to complete quests AND replace a lot, do the quests first.

Thanks very much. I will try this. I tested this with other family just now.
After discussing the note, the star is still above the special merchant (market was replaced with my own here)
Deleted China file from this save folder, then traveled one more time, then eventrually the star shows up on the market. so I better not store the market into the community bin for use later. I didn't have any issue when I just edited some while staying in China. I should edit it and leave it in China every time in every saves.

Hi I'm back. After coming back to home world, I had my sim travel to China again. Then got Deep Within Forbidden City quest one more time. Even though there was no the yellow star above the market, decided to get into there. Then..failed inthe quest. so..it shouldn't be replaced with an edited market, to do this quest correctly. I will lose 2 quests in this market. Stealing Dong Huo's treausre quest and this one. I'm going to delete China file under this save folder.

@aodoherty That's unfortunate, but maybe not surprising. If you really wanted to try to make this work, you could try reassigning the treasure to the two chests in question after you replace the lot. It might take some digging to figure out what the treasure and key are called, but they're probably somewhere on the list.

Hi there. I have made several build changes to Shang Simla Market, and succeeded in both requests. When I made changes to the build I did them while editing the town of China. You can do this be selecting China when you are in edit town mode in your home world, or travel to China and select edit town while there. I have even placed the city hall and hospital rabbit holes onto the lot. I made all changes before attempting any quests that involved the market lot. I made NO changes to the tombs below. I have included three screenshots of my changes. You write that you intend to delete the China file from your save. The game will generate a new China file for you at an unplayed and unaltered state. However, it has been my experience that if your game is in the middle you may not be able to continue. Also if you cancel the quest you may not be able to restart from the beginning. However, all is not lost. Do you have an old save from before you made the changes. If so you can always pick the game up from there. If not, have you considered saving your active family to the bin, (make sure you remove all keys and pangue's axe from your inventories), and starting a new game, and placing your active family from the bin into the new game. Your family members will retain the all skill levels learned and milestones achieved. Your marital arts skill and tournament level will also be the saved. The same is true with your employment level and pay in your home world. The down side you will loose all of your friends and relationships outside the active family. All World Adventures, quests will be reset and you will have to replay them.
