Re: Elevator in 21 Chic Street Apartments not working.

If you play a modded game and happen to use a zone limit mod to allow more sims on community lots, this "glitch" can occur on a penthouse/apartment shell lots once your building reaches its zone limit. Basically what happens is the elevator queue becomes backed up, so you'll see sims literally standing in line waiting to use the elevator. If you wait long enough you'll even start to see the sims eventually clear themselves one by one.

But unfortunately as soon as one clears, another sim is spawned.

The resulting traffic jam causes routing issues for active sims to use the elevator. The only work around is to use the teleport sim cheat.

    @luthienrising Will do!

    I was also able to by-pass the routing issue altogether by installing weerbesu's "Visitors Not Spawning in Front of Venues" and "No Empty Venues When Arriving" mods. With these two installed, my elevators are now back fully functional.

  • @daluved1 I moved your post to the mods forum as the bug forum is for unmodded games only.

    If you have issues with a certain mod, it's best to let the creator know.

    Thanks.

    Awesome! Thank you!

    I just wanted zone limit mods user to be able to find info on this glitch as it's not really a glitch, just a limitation on elevator routing capacity.

    @daluved1 I'd suggest letting losson know that this is an issue. There's a good chance it's a known one, but they might be able to finesse coding for those lots.
