Proposal: Residential Rental System Expansion – Split by Lot Function
Summary Current “Residential Rental” zoning in The Sims 4: For Rent does not reliably support multi-unit apartment structures. This results in broken valuations (e.g., §5 rent values), ownership confusion, and missing gameplay depth for player-built lots. To improve consistency and player control, the system should be divided into two sub-types with distinct logic: Residential Rental – Normal (RRN) and Residential Rental – Apartments (RRA). 1. Residential Rental – Normal (RRN) Purpose: Standard single-household rentals. Intended use: Houses, duplexes, and detached units. Behavior: One active household per lot. Rent, bills, and utilities calculated at lot level. Landlord and maintenance functions apply globally. Compatible with existing “For Rent” management tools. 2. Residential Rental – Apartments (RRA) Purpose: Multi-unit buildings with separate tenants in one structure. Intended use: Apartments, townhouses, and converted buildings. Behavior: Lot supports multiple units (UnitIDs) under one main LotID. Each unit tracks its own: Rent and deposit Tenant household Furnishings and condition Utility consumption Common areas (hallways, stairs, etc.) use a “Shared Space” flag for routing and utility cost sharing. Landlords can view or visit individual units without full reloads. Maintenance, rent collection, and noise events operate per-unit, not per-lot. 3. Automatic Detection / Setup Aid When a player selects “Residential Rental,” the game should analyze lot layout: If multiple front doors or kitchens/bathrooms per enclosed area are detected, prompt: “Multiple self-contained units detected. Would you like to set this as an Apartment Building (RRA)?” Otherwise, default to RRN. This reduces setup confusion and ensures correct system behavior. 4. Technical & Gameplay Benefits Prevents rental value errors (e.g., §5 rent display). Enables true multi-household play on one lot. Preserves compatibility with For Rent management UI. Uses existing backend structure already proven in San Myshuno apartment lots. Increases creative freedom for builders and storytellers without adding new UI complexity. 5. Optional Enhancements Per-unit landlord actions (renovate, inspect, evict). Rent reports showing individual unit values. Shared building events (noise, plumbing issues, power outages). Long-term goal: allow purchase and management of full buildings under one owner. Summary Recommendation Implementing the RRN/RRA split provides a stable, flexible framework for all residential rental cases. It ensures player-made apartment lots function with the same reliability as EA’s prebuilt ones and reduces confusion for new players. What is the thought basis for this?
DLC Disappeared
I've got an Xbox one - I went to go play my game the other day, when opening my save it said that content was missing, and that I was missing packs that were used in the save. I went to the manage game and add ons section all my packs were still listed. So I restarted the game and the console both multiple times to see if that would help - but still registered as missing content. I noticed that I was also getting store notifications for packs that I have purchased and owned already. After checking on here, I went back to the manage add ons section, selected all and uninstalled the packs. This caused all the packs that the game thought was missing to completely disappear from my list of add-ons. I reinstalled the few remaining packs (it seems the ones that I have purchased this year remain) in the hope that might job the programs memory. So now that majority of my game has completely disappeared - so 42 of my packs/kits, and only 9 remain. How do I get the rest of my packs back - especially considering they have fully disappeared from my add-on section.All my extras are gone after reinstalling
Hi, i had to uninstall and then reinstall my game but after reinstalling none of my kits or packs are being acknowledged in game. On the actual EA app it says they are bought and installed, but in-game it says i need to restart everything for them to show up. Even after trying that, they still wont show up in game. My saved games look so ridiculous standing around essentially naked. I bought the extras and my base through EA, so it isnt some mix up with steam and EA. If i go to any of my previoisly purchased pack, i can purchase them again and they show up saying "installed" and yet i cant actually access them.Missing DLC
I know Sims console is the most glitches game in the world, but I come to peace with that what I am not in peace with is having to buy expensive packs then having to buy them again so I have an old Xbox that runs every game slowly, of course one of them being Sims and occasionally it will crash or whatever but today was different. I noticed a few of my games weren’t loading so I decided to reset my Xbox and re-download my games again. I read out the sins and I noticed a lot of packs or missing. I uninstalled it and reinstall it again to make sure in a lot we’re still missing I checked, and it shows that I have to re-buy them again. I already spent hundreds of dollars on the game and you’re telling me I have to spend more absolutely not. I hope this reaches someone that can help me but for now I will not be supporting EA or anything that they do. They already took so much money from me.
[CD] Pets don't eat from full bowls (Patch 1.69)
I fill my pets bowls and have a sim call the pets, the pets go to the bowl but do not eat from it. I have tried using different pet bowls and having them in different places but they still won't eat. It shows them as uncomfortable and at risk of being taken away. Edit By Crinrict: Adjusted Title fit bug report at AHQ
