In Evergreen harbour, all three community lots were voted to be Maker spaces. Since last update, apart from the Sim I am playing, the only people that visit the lot are the experts in their field who...
Ideas
I have the same problem, except that NOONE comes to the lots when my Sims visit. I do have mods but I did the 50/50 and it's not my mods. I did a repair on the game and even deleted the sims folder and had the game recreate it but I still have this problem. Even in a new save with no mods at all.
But I have to mention that I have all of my community spaces as the default community space (i just have all the items for all spaces in place) because I don't really want the spaces to be specialized.
Now, what would normally happen is that vendors would show up to sell their stuff on the selling tables, and lots of Sims would come to do their thing, garden, chat and use other activity objects available. If I have a food vendor stall, an NPC would show up and start selling.
But now when my Sims visit the lots they are completely alone and NO other Sims enter the lot. It's like the community lots have all become generic lots.
It is annoying. It seems to be tied to the "required items" for that type of lot. You can place all sorts of items in the different types of community lots, but random NPCs only use required items.
Previously the generic community lots without any changes except removing rubbish would at least get some dumpster action, eg Woo Hoo, scavenging for food or sorting recyclables and using Recycler. Now no one visits at all as you have seen. Not connected to mods or cheats as I don't use either.
Previously, they'd use whatever you added and it was fascinating watching them use stuff, skilling up and keeping what they made (except for paintings - which they did take sometimes if you moved them to a wall.)
My Sims are using everything but not the required items. I also use LMS autoemployee to get my stall vendor back. That's why a barista will be availble as well. I have some visitors but the are only performing woodworking, playing basketball, order food, but nothing eco lifestyle specific.
Interesting. What is the lot designated as?
The change is amusing in that I used to have my Sim try to use a Fabricator or a dumpster and they would be prevented by a non controlled Sim who had just entered the lot and obviously took priority. But that was preferable to no one using them.
