Bon Voyage: Hotels in the normal neighborhood.

Just a little tidbit I recently discovered: A hotel lot, if placed in the normal neighborhood/downtown/business district, acts (almost) like any normal community lot. While you get the normal hotel greeting upon visiting the lot, telling you to choose a suite, you can actually skip that and still us...

Re: BBACC rules creation - Boolprop Build a City Challenge

I like the original rules, as they are easy to overlook and not too complex - but they do tend to create silly situations: you want to finish the Bacc fast ? earn 44 million simoleons (it's easy, believe me!), place 44 unis, add all the cas sims - done! Aside the fact, that you shouldn't do that if ...

Re: What sort of community lots do you use?

Good question. Like you already mentioned, first thing might be Community lots for the bare necessities - a supermarket, a clothing store, a newsdealer, a video game shop, a restaurant, a park for hanging out - so you can buy all the stuff you can't normally buy at home without mods/hacks and need a...
