Why are stalls not auto manned on public lots?

I know this issue has been mentioned in several places and forums already but I am mentioning it again. Come EA this needs addressing. Why should I need to pay 100 simoleons to then also have to pay for what ever I want to order. These stalls should automatically be manned wither its a built in game lot/stall or a player placed stall on a public lot. This really does have a negative impact on game play particularly for console players who can't use mods as a get around. Many people out there looking for a fix and nothing has been done. Let us see that u are listening to us.

@Drarcuul WOW! You're so missing the point! Shouldn't have to pay 100 simoleons whether we cheat our way there or not. Not the point. Just man the stalls. It looks more authentic when vendors are at stalls. No one places a stall for it to be vacant. It creates a certain atmosphere. One obviously needed for their gameplay. Why should one player pay out 100 simoleons PER STALL for some realism? EA could just code the darn thing. That's all she asking for. You'd think it would be automatic but it isn't. So, EA can you code for it? Get it now?

In order for your food stalls to function with NPC manning the stall you have to have the expansion "Eco Lifestyle Expansion Pack" and you have to select the lot type as "community center" and then make the community center a "marketplace" that's the only way it works for me. I also think it sucks that it isn't automatic with any lot type.

@Chibikaka Okay, so that's probably proof that it should be working, but has only been successfully implemented on one lot type so far.

I hope we can get EA's attention and have them put this on a laundry list soon.

@Chibikaka Thank you so very much! While I agree we should be able to have this work on any community type lot, I am really glad to know at least one type of lot will help to correct this situation. I am making note of this right now.

Been a minute, and this option still doesn't exist 🤦‍♂️
Now, to clarify to all the confused: when I place the coffee stall in build mode in the Oasis Spring Park, and my played Sim goes to the park, the vendors never show up, and the stalls are unmanned. Why would my Sim have to pay 100$ to open the stall just to buy coffee? These stalls should be automatically manned on the public lots. We can alter public lots like parks, so it is not residential, nor a private lot in any way, and the stalls should be manned automatically.
