What do you want to see in the For Rent Livestream?

No date yet for the livestream.

I'm interested in how the common/shared spaces work. Especially gardens.

Show the apartment screens. How it looks like in build mode, how is looks like in Manage Worlds. What is Home Unit and other buttons.

What is the limit of households you can move into there?

And most importantly: what is the cheat for unlimited units?

I want to see while our sims are in their own apartments, a sim trying to break into someone else's apartment. I'm just more curious if thats something only controlled sims could do?

I would like to see the world, the botanical gardens and the sanctuary, hope to see live tigers, not just statues of them. Also would be nice if they clarified if there will be new boats for our sims to ride on. Would also like to see more of the night market.

This.

- Show me sims from different households mingling in the community spaces! I want that feature back so badly.

- Show if pets can prowl shared space.

- Show sims visit a residential rental - what can they see/access?

- What are the limits of building? For example can I move a fence around a pre-existing farm in Henford, call it a residential rental and assign it an owner? That would be neat.

- Can (and if so, how) I assign units land so that my sims can grow plants or keep chickens? I'm thinking a row of crofter families here.

- How many residental rentals can a single landlord own? Does the landlord need to purchase it or do we just assign one?

- How often come bills in again? The lease length info was not clear on this.

- Furnishing. Can we rent unfurnished? What happens to the star rating in this case? How does buying my own furniture affect star rating? Does my rent suddenly go up just because I bought my own sofa? Are tenants allowed to sell kitchen/bathroom fixtures? How about upgrading?

- Can I move in my tenants even if the requirements are not fulfilled? The tenant searcher thingie lists beds as requirement. When I play the landlord and rent to townies, that makes sense. But when I want my own sims to be the tenants, they want to bring their own beds, naturally. If I have to place an alibi bed, may I at least sell or destroy it when playing the tenant?

- If the landlord or the neighbors take an object, where does this object go? In Sims 2 burglars kept the stuff they took, so we had a chance to reclaim unique objects (I got the rare coin from the pirate ship stolen once and ever since I'm NOT a fan of burglars anymore).

- How does eviction work? Can I evict a tenant if they misbehaved in a way according to my lore, but not violated the tenant agreement?

- Will the system respect played sims status? Played sims should not move in or out on their own, evict sims or get evicted.

- To what extent can I add new rules and/or adjust fines?

What I really want to see:

- Build/Buy.
- How to move sims into residential rentals.
- How the outside of residential rentals work. Ex: can we edit them even after our sims have moved in & can we have separate fenced in backyards & patios?
- How mailboxes work on residential lots.

I think you assign units by selecting room so if the area can't be selected as room it can't be specific unit mayhaps it'll just be shared space

then again you could split the yard for example by making sure that only door to the yard is through certain room/unit or something = other sims can't walk there cause they can't use door

I wonder if you can assign any room, even if not enclosed fully? For example, can you assign an open-air porch that just has railings and an opening for stairs? The downside would be that other sims couldn't get to your front door, because the porch would presumably be off-limits, but I do wonder if it's possible.

I hope to see some confirmation that we can move a landlord in to a property, move specific families in to units on the lot, and then never play as the landlord but still communicate with them for rent payments, complaints, etc. Basically I want it to be a step up from City Living, where your landlord is un-chooseable and un-playable. I think it will work, given everything we've seen so far, but I've learned to expect last-minute disappointments lol. Hopefully if it isn't set up like this by default, mods will fix that.

This is what I’m planning on doing. I just hope that we can easily edit the outside if we want to.
