Front door changes
I notice a little annoyance from the Business & Hobbies expansion, nothing serious, but it's annoying and could be easily fixed I think.
I assigned my house door to be the "front door". When you open your business for the day it change your business door as the front door of the whole building which is fine, but then when you close the business, it doesn't switch back. So people coming to visit you end up always using the business door, even if it closed, instead of using the house door. It would be handy to have two sorts of front door, business front door for client when the business is open and house front door for friends and all when business is closed.
What do you guys think?

EDIT by Kayafulmaniac: As the user Gingerxyz commented : It's not triggered by the business being closed, but it happen when you reload the lot. I just re-tested with my game and the front door keep being reset to the one closer to the place where sims disappear to get off the lot.
I seems to happens everytime I quit the lot and come back. (I thought it was related to closing the business, but it was a mistake, the theory of Gingerxyz is the right one! I was able to replicate the bug everytime with it!)
EDIT by Kayafulmaniac: WHY DID THIS THREAD STATUS CHANGED FOR "SOLVED" IT'S NOT SOLVED!!!
We would absolutely like you to revisit this recent "design choice" that is a mistake that invalid other features. With your answer I feel like you didn't understood the issue correctly, so let me rephrase it, for clarity.
The game provide the option to manually assign any door as a front door, but now you are telling me that this long time feature is totally useless now, because your recent "design choice" is automatically ignoring this and reassigning the closest door to the lot's spawn point as a front door every time we load the map. Is that correct? How is that a feature and not a bug? It totally erase the other functionality that allowed us to manually choose the front door.
Also, an other point, with the business expansion pack, we have a shop and a house, so we don't want people to ring at the shop when the intention is to ring at the house or to have sims come back home and pass through the store for some reason. And even without the business pack, we want the option to choose which door is the main door. (Like we were always able to do before).
Hi all,
This is currently working as designed, as Sims will route to whichever door is closest to the lot's spawn point.
Please feel free to provide your feedback here if you'd like us to revisit this design choice.
