Re: Quiet lot trait doesn't work as advertised

That's another good question about the opposing CL lot trait; in the appt in the Fashion District, you have three appts, two have the trait while the last does not. If I live in the appt that does not have the trait, then that means I will not have to hear half as much noise coming from the other two appts?

Also, regardless if by design or not, the Quiet lot trait is poorly worded then. If the appt with the lot trait is meant to be Quiet, than that also means that not only can you not hear noises from your neighbors, but they won't be able to hear any noises from your own as well, because it's Quiet.

I'm moving this to game info as feedback on the wording.

I believe simvasion is right.

Even if it were true, I still need some official clarification on the lot trait.

Quiet - Reduces the likelihood that Sims in neighboring apartments will annoy your Sim and their family.

This is what found in Carl's guide (yes, know that's not official)

If you make noise, you're not being quiet. In your report you say, the neighbors make less (no noise) so you don't get annoyed as often. So it's not about not being annoyed by the noise but rather not any being there.

Look at this this way: If you are on a train that has a quiet zone. People are supposed to be quiet in there. If someone isn't, this doesn't mean that others won't get annoyed by it but rather that you did something you shouldn't have.
