[ECO] Hardly any Sims visiting Community Space/No vendors

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 mentor. Previously random people would turn up, including children as there is a kids craft area. Now there are no vendors to man sales table or people for these mentors to teach.

I don't have any mods loaded or use cheats.

I will experiment with a new game to see if it is the same. I've played with community lots a lot, so know how they used to operate.

  • From what I understand from mitchsimmer, it's related to stuff being deleted when they batch added the Lovestruck dating Sims in every lot types (in their zone directors). The erased by mistake many of the schedule entries that spawned NPCs on those lots. I think that's also why there is no one on the Central Park lot type from City Living, except those annoying lovers.

  • It’s the same in my game. I returned to my Evergreen Harbor save and decided to pop along to the Market space, but there was nothing happening there. The tables were fully stocked, and there were some couples sitting together on benches (thanks to Lovestruck), but no vendors and no activities related to the purpose of this space. Please fix this.

    Townies rarely visit. No vendors. No ability to hire a vendor because booths cannot be clicked on. Frankly the whole community lot setting is broken. Nothing works.

    I uninstalled lovestruck for that reason. Those lovestruck sims were so disruptive, I mean they showed up everywhere and because the game spawned so many of them many other sims who usually visited those lots never showed up. It ruined sims spawning. 

    And now they are the reason for this bug.

    Thanks, yeah I mean that the idea wasn't that great to begin with, a pack shouldn't add a new NPC job role (adult couples going on dates) to every lot in the game, that's just asking for trouble.  So this mistake was bound to happen and could very well happen in the future again.

    We all do mistakes, but this mistake was caused by something that wasn't a good idea in the first place...
