Apartment doors
One of my greatest disappointments with City Living is that players can not build their own apartments. However, I was wondering if it would be possible for EA to patch in or to release apartment doors in an upcoming pack?
Apartment doors would designate which family lives beyond the door. In addition, hopefully, it would keep other Sims in the building from wanting to use the objects behind that door. So long as the apartment was completely enclosed by walls or a fence, Sims could live there fully independent of the other families on the lot.
What would be even nicer is if that function were added to many doors in the game so that there could be a choice of door styles, not just one.
A programmed object like that could open an entire array of building opportunities: apartment buildings, functioning row houses, mother-in-law suites, and, possibly, even apartments over businesses spaces. Perhaps the bills could be handled by a multi-family mailbox, as in TS2.
I don't need high-rise apartment shells at all, those are already available in City Living. What I would really love is to have family members living in adjoining homes on the same lot again. Or, friends living in the same apartment house with no need to go through a loading screen to visit each other. Nor would I care about landlords or janitors. I would simply like the opportunity to build apartments again.
Would something like this ever be possible in TS4?
