Q&A: Adventure Awaits

Thank you! I'll jump right in this question pool with my own. :)

• Can you live at a custom venue full time (senior living seemed to be an option?) Can I make NPCs live there? 
• Can I live at and run a custom venue from the same lot (like small businesses)? Or own one like a retail venue?
• Can I work at a custom venue or getaway? (active career or semi-active careers?)
• Someone else already mentioned making or costing money, I second the question. 
• Can you use the new slides for the playground with pools (creating water parks)?
• I second the question about toddlers and playgrounds. 
• Can you set preferred activities for custom venues without a schedule? 
• What is the difference between custom venues and the getaways? Are getaways limited to the new world or a venue like any other?
• When kids play hide and seek, do they always hide in the same box, or can they hide different places? What places can they hide?
• Can you have club gatherings at custom venues? 
• Which type of parties can you host at custom venues? At getaways? 
• Will places like bars, espresso bars and stalls have working NPCs at custom venues or do you need to hire that function when creating the venue?
• How is cross pack combability between Dine out and Adventure Awaits? Can a getaway or custom venue feature a restaurant? 
• How about retail or small business features?
• Can we use the custom venue type to create true multifunctional lots? (such as a hotel, with a small shop, a restaurant and a spa, or a mall)
