Retail - What Can't Be Sold
In my effort to make this game more challenging for myself, I decided to create retail lots for everything in the catalogue. My plan was to make it so that my sims would not have access to anything in...

After actually playing and testing out this system, I realized that it is not going to work without modding the game.
One of the biggest problems is that once your sim that doesn't own the lot goes to shop at any of the stores, anything that was previously purchased stays out of stock forever. I have gone back to my owner family to see if they would restock the items, but they don't show as out of stock for that family. So there is going to have to be some sort of lot reset. This matters for things like food and produce. It also matters for furniture if you want more than one item. For example, I wanted 2 of the same couch. I knew it would be out of stock, but I thought I could leave and come back and it would be in stock. Not the case and nothing I do, besides going with a different family would make it in stock for the sim that needs it.
There is a whole lot that can't be purchased. I can understand CC items, but I just don't get why certain decor items can't be marked for sale. It rattles my brain. And counters...still ticked about that. Other than that, the lots play well. I haven't had any issues with routing and I have even caught the townie owners ringing up customers. So that's really cool.
