Fixed an issue where venue lot types were sometimes not displaying correctly.
Fixed in Patch 1.54.120
Can even confirm that the broken lots in my old save are fixed
Save-file sent via pm!
I started a new game, accepted a random sim, put her in Hallow Slough (Willow Creek), stuck testingcheats on so she could afford the house, & d/l the affected house from my library. It is labeled residential. However, when I went to build mode...the lot type is greyed out. That house/lot may simply be permanently bugged now.
I do have the original, unmodified house in my gallery, so I can try d/l the original house & remodifying it to suit, or change my plans and move the family to another lot permanently. I was hoping to play the same home for generations, but oh well.j
eta: exited the game w/o saving, cleared my caches/trash. Started new game, new random sim. Put this sim in a different lot, went to manage worlds, d/l'd the affected house from my library into the Hallow Slough lot. Entered via build button on worldview...& the lot type is not greyed out; it's just fine. I went back to worldview (F1), popped briefly into Oasis Springs, returned to Willow Creek, re-entered Hallow Slough (clicking on it I think) & it's still fine. Will try putting the random sim in that household (will have to cheat though; will use the 'freerealestate on' one this time) & post result.
Result: exited the lot via F1, used testing cheat above, used 'move' button on worldview, and moved sim into affected house/lot. Plumbob over house; popped into Oasis Springs & back; still a plumbob over house, not a notice of 'museum.' Entered house by clicking on it, went from live mode to build, and the lot type is again greyed out. Will try letting the game run a few minutes.
Ran game on speed 3 from 8am simtime to 5pm when welcome wagon finally left. Testingcheats is off, btw--& going to buildmode the lot type is still greyed out w/the same 'can't change lot 'cuz it's owned' tooltip. Exiting via manage worlds, there's a plumbob over the house, not the exclamation mark. I'll save this one for later experimentation as I have other things I have to do now. Hope some of this helps.
Ahhh, it occurs to me (belatedly) that I have a number of pre-patch saves, if you want 'em for comparison purposes, Crinrict. (Didn't @ you because I figure you get enough of those every day!) I have pre-patch saves going back to 03/09/2018; the most recent being 06/19/2019, & the set before that being 04/17/2019.
In case it's relevant, I started this particular set of save-games in 2015. I'm a rotational player, & in addition to playing all of 'my' households, I have temporarily played/changed almost every in-world (housed) NPC household, & afterwards marked them as unplayed. From what I've seen in the comments here, it may be that those of us with persistent bugged-lot-types have old save-games and a large rotation.
