Just exploring Sulani

I'm late to the party but finally had chance to explore Sulani and replace lots. Couple questions:

What did you guys do with the Admiral Wreckage lot?

Its annoying not every lot of the same size fits. Sometimes i download a house onto a lot and I have floating water skiiers and stuff.

Does anyone have a restaurant in Sulani? what lot did you put it on?

What other community lots did you put in Sulani? I don't need too many residential lots.
  • Here's a tip for all who have Island Living. The expansion adds an item called "Sulani Volcanic BBQ Searer" which is basically a pit used to cook foods, but it has several unique qualities. Most of the food options are only available in the pit. These recipes can not be learned as some other recipes can, and some may be unavailable until you reach a high enough cooking and/or gourmet skill level. The foods themselves are great, but you can only use it to prepare large meals, so it's a waste in typical situations. It also takes a long time to complete the meals for eating, so if you do decide to use it for a large gathering, you should start the gathering with starting the cooking. Thankfully, the sim doing the cooking is free to do whatever they want until the food is ready, and it can be left in the pit for quite a while (I've accidentally left a meal in the pit for a day and it was perfectly fine, so it might last forever until taken out of the pit to consume, but I've not tested this yet).

    Now, here's where it get's weird. The quality of the food created from the pit is dependent upon the sim's skill (some recipes require cooking and some require gourmet) and the type of lot the pit is placed in. I've only tested it on two types, residential and park, and here's the results...
    Residential: Always poor or normal (level 10 in both cooking and gourmet)
    Park: Always normal to excellent
    So, keep this in mind when using the pit; if the best you can cook is normal, it's probably because of the lot type you have it on.
  • What did I do with Admiral's Wreckage? Well, I went into detail in another post, but to sum it up:

    Renamed it "Admiral 8Q's Wreckage".

    I typically move sims into the Admiral's wreckage and totally redo it. Or get a build from the gallery, if I can find one that is not a waterfront property. I haven't seen anything floating, though. Was that on the Wreckage lot? Maybe the downloaded build was a waterfront...could explain it.

    I only have two community lots in Sulani. I've kept the beach and the bar in Ohan'ali Town. The rest is residential. Many of my saves, including the current one, don't even have any restaurants at all. :#

    I am thinking of a restaurant in Sulani too . I did see one on a waterfront lot, a speed build. Do hashtag #restaurant and #Sulani,

    I left it the same, I need that kind of thing in my game.

    I recommend searching for the lots original name to get what you want. For example, if you're placing something on the lot Key Point, search for "Key Point".


    I thought of this but when I download and then bulldoze something, the name of the gallery download is on there, not the original. Even when it's now empty. How do I see EA's original names so I can search?

    (it's annoying I can't separate my comment from Nerdfashion's quote on here. Not sure why)
