@CGrant56 Thank you for your suggestions 🙂 . I started a new game with no mods per the suggestion of Crinrict for the sake of the latest Cozy Celebrations event. It was suggested this sim live alone to ensure greater chances of not having errors that may be sure to pop up as it has with the past events held. So, having multiple players here wouldn't work.
Plus, there is a game play where some players prefer having a sim who is not looking to settle down with any one sim or creating a family, but still loves to be around people to host events such as these. With this, it really isn't fair that the game requires multiple live-in households to host these events to get the gold reward. EA should have it set up for the host to meet all these requirements on their own, though it may be a bit more challenging.
But I'm still not clear what actions are needed to get multiple sims to listen to the radio at the same time. Was there supposed to be an action icon on the radio that wasn't there for me? And is there a way to create batch drinks instead of individuals when using the one tile bar? In games past, I didn't get into mixology, so I am unclear how these bars work, but thought I saw bartenders at clubs able to make batch drinks?? Or am I getting that confused with another sim series??
