I wonder if the intent for generic lots was so that people could have a place outside of their Sims home where they could have private weddings or birthday parties or what have you, without being interrupted by townies. But personally, I would prefer it to be a little more flexible, where we could have it act like a regular public lot. Are there any lot traits that could help with this? Maybe they could patch one in, or release on in the future.
If that was the case, the description wouldn't say "Visitors are allowed" though. Unless the German translation (where I took this from) is wrong and the English one actually says "Visitors are NOT allowed".
Nope, the English definitely says "Visitors are allowed". I've checked.
@SimsLovinLycan Okay, then it's definitely a bug.

OP: I agree with you about generic lots. I tried making my own cinema with Movie Hangout Stuff by building a generic community lot with snacks, a bar and fun activities. I ended up needing to label it a "lounge" in order to get people to show up. I haven't visited that lot lately but when I did, it was weird. Only a few elderly men showed up and were hanging around in a creepy way. I guess that's why I haven't gone there much.
@ChampandGirlie It seems like all "lounge" lots are attraction points for elders, so try making it a "bar" instead. That should send more young adults and just the occasional adult in there.
