Copperdale Park to Residential Glitch?

Every time I move a family into a house that I created on the lot where the park is in Copperdale, it turns back into a park & says that all of the requirements haven’t been met yet. I have to “sell” my family’s “business” & load back into the lot through live mode in order for it to stay a residential lot, & I noticed that it took everything out of my bookshelves & toy boxes & put them in the household inventory. (I accidentally deleted everything not realizing where they came from, lol. :D). That MIGHT not be related, but I’m pretty sure it is.

Has anyone else experience this?

    Anytime I add a residential lot to a lot that is a venue this happens. I always choose the option to make it residential and it will say residential but then it reverts back. Next time try changing the venue to residential first then add the residential lot. Or, before you add the family, edit the empty lot and change it there (again).


    I’m sorry that you have this issue, too! I wish they would fix it, lol. Next time, I’ll try your suggestion. Thanks!

    I would think it's probably (secretly) locked into a park since that's the lot teens are officially on when they hang out at the fair after the prom. There just has to be a lot where you travel to, a bit like the onsen is required for mountain excursions in Snowy Escape. Maybe?


    Oh, I haven’t gone to prom in my game yet, so I didn’t know that, lol. Now I wonder what’s going to happen when prom does happen?


    I have a house on the park lot. Teens just spawn at the the amusement park. That lot doesn't have to be a park.


    What lot are they on then? I mean what lot is loaded while they are there? Do you have another park? Good thing if the Copperdale Park lot is not locked.


    Honestly when they had their after prom get together there, they just spawned there, I didn't notice which, if any lots were loaded. But when I want to take a sims to the amusement park, I just load into any of the lots in that neighborhood (they are all residential in my game). You don't need a community lot to travel around the neighborhoods.

    Good point. It has always been my personal preference to have a good community lot available for city living festivals for example. Never even stopped to think that it might not be required for these kind of game events. I'm guessing the game is still going to load that particular lot, so if it's residential then you're visiting a family even if you don't walk to the lot.
