Did this issue appear after a specific patch or change you made to your system? Neutral/Not Sure
I built a small beach hotel themed lot and placed it on a converted residential lot, intending to use it as a beach since I can't have actual hotels or rented properties. However, when my sim arrived there, he was unable to enter the building at all. I can't even change floors or lower walls on the lot. In addition, when I add a water vehicle to complete the beach venue, it disappears when I leave the lot. NPC sims, however, are able to use the lot, as seen in the screenshot.
The problem persists even when the lot is bulldozed and rebuilt to have only a single empty room with a door....or even a room with no door.
It happens at Key Point, and this is a new game started just for this expansion. Just tested this again, with a brand new sim not from my library, and it works. Tested with CC back in, and the lot will now work, but the water scooter is gone on loading. Apparently it's an issue with the sim I had saved. :/ Shame, I really wanted to use some of my library sims here. Ah well. Is there any way to save a sim's appearance only? I want to keep the way they look.
Thanks for the quick response. Now at least I know. 🙂
