POLA Rooftop Bar @ The Seno
Tumblr media
Non-Residential Bar Lot ( No CC, Download via Tray)
Pola Rooftop Bar is the latest project by The Lesmana Enterprise Co., Ltd (Del Sol Valley Branch). Situated right at the heart of downtown Del Sol Valley, Pola Rooftop bar is the perfect place to go for a chill night out, or daydrinking by the pool in the downtown sun. The building (The Seno) is a low-rise office building with an empty space on the 1st floor, Shinomiya Finances KK office on the 2nd floor, and The Lesmana Enterprise Co., Ltd Del Sol Valley branch office on the 3rd floor.

The Seno Building
The namesake of Seno Building is taken from a popular street in Jakarta (our OP's hometown) where minimalist bars and clubs sprawl along the street.
Our architects designed Seno to be a subtle, yes still a great piece of architecture to be placed right on Starlight Boulevard.

hiya! any tips on creating an immersive save that will attract not only you as the player but others as the viewers? your aesthetic is stunning and im so obsessed with everything you do!! <3
oh wow, this is a super sweet ask, @plumday.
let's see. I interpreted this as an ask about how I setup my sim save in a way that engages me. Hopefully this is helpful!
Setting Up TS4 Gameplay
Tumblr media Tumblr media
Revamp Sim Worlds
BRAVE THOSE LOADING SCREENS and leave your residential lot! (I promise it's worth it)
NEW LOTS - Each of my worlds have been renovated with lots I handpicked from the gallery - too much work? I recommend using a savefile! Here are some of my personal faves @ratboysims 1, @down-in-simsland 2, @folkling 3 & @sweetbeagaming 4.
RESIDENTIAL RENTAL - these lots help make the world feel more dense and lived in, plus condensing the local households to 1-2 lots leaves room for more non-residential lots to explore with your sims.
WORK AND SCHOOL - I recommend placing offices, schools, and daycare lots. These combined with a few mods (semi-active custom careers and Zerbu's go to school mod 2) and clubs are something I really enjoy.
Set Up Clubs
I really like @sojutrait's tutorial on how to use clubs to enhance your gameplay and is a MUST HAVE in my humble opinion. I usually have a family chore club, work clubs, neighborhood clubs, extended family clubs, etc... and it's so nice to click a button suddenly there are sims there making my game more lively.
To have more than 3 clubs per sim, I use this mod maintained by @kingzaceofsims.
I also use custom club activities so sims (MOSTLY) behave how I want them to. @srslysims has tutorial on how to make your own.
To be able to have club gatherings in vacation worlds I use this mod. It was helpful with sending my pixel kids to camp.
Set Up the Calendar
@aliennooboo made this AMAZING tutorial on setting up your sims calendar that I just adore. I find this helps me remember to do things with my sims and helps change up their day to day life.
Playing
ROTATIONAL GAMEPLAY - I find this keeps me engaged and prevents boredom. It keeps things fresh and allows me to explore different stories. Here is a great resource to get started!
GAMEPLAY MODS - I find adding various mods keeps my gameplay fresh and interesting. I recommend these creators (1, 2, 3, 4 & 5) in particular.
Screenies
POSES - As a gameplay person, I try to use poses sparingly. It disrupts the game for me but I find sometimes I can't convey what I want to without them, so I try to only use a few. This is what works for me, please do what works for you. Shout out to all the storytellers blogs, though, that keep me fed.
RESHADE or PSD files can add some fun color and effects to screenies. ONLY edit as much as you want to. I felt a lot of pressure to get better at this and I am finally finding the balance of how much and what kind of editing I actually like to do. I have collected reshades/gshades and resources here.
House Keeping
Keep back ups of your trayfiles, screenshots, households, lots, etc 'cause it's sims, things break and go wrong.
Keep your CC and mods organized otherwise fixing your game is a hug pain.
Reblogs and additional tips and recommendations welcomed!
HAPPY SIMMING!

i really like britechester because it has that european-city vibe that takes me back home. i like to follow a certain style for the builds i use in britechester, usually influenced by french and british traditional-cities architecture.
i don't know if the same happens to you too, but i really struggle to find non-residential cc-free lots. so today, i bring you a list of community lots you could use in britechester. you can also check my other britechester builds suggestions post here (i won't repeat them in this list).
and because i really depend on lot sizes and maps to picture-build the world i wanna put my sims living in, i leave you a reference map with lot sizes legends so you can see which build fits where :)

how to reset residential rental lots and fix off-lot TOOL modifications
first and foremost, prepare your game. this is essential! move active households living in residential rentals to non-rental lots. save builds you have placed in tomarang to your library. edited tomarang residents you'd like to keep should also be saved to your library. you can replace these when we're done.
load into your active household's new lot and sell the residential rental property (or properties) using the business tab at the bottom right corner of the UI. repeat this step for every household that owns a residential rental property.
save as. i recommend creating a new save here (i labeled mine no rent) so you can keep your previous save intact if you need it later for whatever reason. exit the game.
in the EA app, disable the For Rent pack. select the sims 4 from your game library, click manage, then view properties. type into the advanced launch options -disablepacks:EP15 and hit save.
launch the game without EP15. you will be asked to select which save you want to load and receive a message saying you are missing a pack. load into your no rent save. the game will say you're missing data because you had a residential rental and by disabling the pack it has now reset those lots and removed bb/cas items you were using. from map view you'll see that now all previously residential rental lots have been changed to generic.
load each of those lots and switch them to residential manually to be on the safe side. you'll notice that all of the items placed off-lot using the TOOL mod have reappeared. save your game. if you're like me, you'll save as and label it accordingly in case you want to backtrack later.
you can continue playing this way without EP15 or exit. to enable For Rent, go back into your EA app game library, manage, view properties, delete -disablepacks:EP15 and save.

Best Sims 4 Script Mods✨
wanted a masterlist on this site of my "cannot live without" mods, so buckle up and get ready for your game to finally become even better!
Note: Playing on basic hardware and think your game can't run this high of scripts? My specs are a laptop with barely 4 GB of usable RAM and the most basic cpu+gpu out there. Go ham.
⭐List is under the cut and includes scripts like "All Worlds/Secret Worlds Residential", "Travel to Hidden World Easily", top notch map/loading screen replacements, ongoing projects like "sims 4 multiplayer" and more⭐
Gameplay Tweaks:
✨Darkmode ★ By: Dskecht
As of making this, both Arnie's Darkmode/Plumfruit are broken and will probably stay that way due to their retirement. Dskecht is currently hard at work with updating theirs though, which you can find at the link above, and their main updates about patch fixes here.
••••⋆••••⋆••••⋆••••⋆••••⋆
✨All Worlds Are Residential ★ By: Zerbu
With this, destination type worlds (granite falls, selvadorada/ect) and hidden worlds (sylvan glade/forgotten grotto/ect) become residential or whatever lot type you want them to be. You'll need the creator's Venue Changes mod along with it. Cannot explain how important this mod is.
••••⋆••••⋆••••⋆••••⋆••••⋆
✨Travel To Venue/Hidden World ★ By: TwelfthDoctor
Quickly travel to places like Forgotten Grotto and more- all from your cell phone!
••••⋆••••⋆••••⋆••••⋆••••⋆
✨OMSP Shelf ★ By: AmoeBae
This "shelf" is basically a placeholder and has many slots, which doesn't conflict on placement and you can then turn invisible. If that sounds confusing, basically: wow shelf/table full of decorations instead of like two weirdly placed objects.
••••⋆••••⋆••••⋆••••⋆••••⋆
✨More Traits ★ By: MapleBell
A lot of good traits, that I feel go well with a "maxis match" or "basegame" playthrough.
••••⋆••••⋆••••⋆••••⋆••••⋆
✨Photographic Memory ★ By: RSVN
Take better photos with a custom camera and frame them in different frames, polaroids, canvases, calendars, ect. Beautiful work.
••••⋆••••⋆••••⋆••••⋆••••⋆
✨Sacrificial's Mods
The creator of "Extreme Violence" brings you a ton of other elements. Armageddon, Zombies, Life tragedies, possessed or murderous children & so much more. Go wild.
••••⋆••••⋆••••⋆••••⋆••••⋆
✨TurboDriver's Mods
Wouldn't be a complete list without the creator of "whickedwhims". Kudos, TurboDriver.
••••⋆••••⋆••••⋆••••⋆••••⋆
✨Basemental's Mods
Mods which are full o' vices, if you catch my drift. All of their work is amazing and goes super well with sacrificial & turbodriver's work.
••••⋆••••⋆••••⋆••••⋆••••⋆••••⋆••••⋆••••⋆••••⋆••••⋆
More Scripts:
✨Dershayan & 20thCenturyPlumbob Maps/Loading Screen Replacements
I can't choose a favorite set- both creators have made beautiful work, though Dershayan only offers map replacements.
••••⋆••••⋆••••⋆••••⋆••••⋆
✨More Columns in CAS ★ By: weerbesu
CAS UI is incredibly irritating and this helps by giving more columns. You have different choices for how many you want.
••••⋆••••⋆••••⋆••••⋆••••⋆
✨Better BuildBuy ★ By: TwistedMexi
Will change your life and TwistedMexi will become like family. Oh, and did I mention it has live camera (tab key) in build mode?
••••⋆••••⋆••••⋆••••⋆••••⋆
✨ColorPicker ★ By: Carl's Guides
Hate the game's colors with objects? Carl is here to help.
••••⋆••••⋆••••⋆••••⋆••••⋆
✨T.O.O.L ★ By: TwistedMexi
Total manipulation over otherwise locked assets in game (ex. non-editable player items/buildings/terrain like those freaking apartment windows you can't delete or change). This creator is currently working on a huge project for this entire community, and is also another concrete presence.
••••⋆••••⋆••••⋆••••⋆••••⋆••••⋆••••⋆••••⋆••••⋆••••⋆
✨Big Ongoing Projects✨
🏆Sims 4 Multiplayer
Creator Simsmultiplayer brings you something we've all talked over for years. It's released, but I haven't tested it myself.
🏆Sims 4 Create-A-World
TwistedMexi comes through once again, but this time with the most complex sims mod were seeing being developed. It has years of work already and is currently still in development. Updates at link above.
----------
Kudos to all mod + creators- big and small💞 This game has been tweaked, redesigned and literally fixed by modders time and time again and our community gets even more vibrant each day with their talents. After almost ten years in this community, I have seen such amazing work and tireless effort to creations of assets & mechanics, fixes to game bugs of all types and providing of technical support. We love you guys💖

The swamp of the forgotten
Since the creation of the all-powerful, the world has been ruled by several species of creature. Among these races, there are several categories: the Elves. The Elves themselves have been separated into several peoples over the centuries. The Grey Elves, rejected by all sides and living on the bangs of the human race, have become primitive. Living off little and close to nature, their existence remains discreet and mysterious. Nevertheless, they are formidable warriors and practice druidic magic.
Tumblr media
Here's a 50x50 plot for download. I needed to create a special world for this race, which was inspired by a French writer by the name of Fetjaine (this author influenced my adolescence). Unfortunately, I couldn't find a construction CC to suit my imagination. So I converted 4 objects from a 3D modeling site and incorporated them into my terrain (It's purely aesthetic!). You can find them as a detached link if you're interested. However, they are converted on an "Eco Lifestyle" basis.
For those who know me, I'm a fan of fantasy. So I made the terrain mystical with birch trees with shimmering leaves and red flowers (I know, I'm a bit perched 😅) but it's a change from the swamps we know. I'd like to thank the creators of CC for allowing me to build this atypical world. You'll find a non-exhaustive list of creators' names here, as well as my "Tray" folder. It's also perfect for those who want a touch of fantasy and survivalism (Sims live in huts). I hope you enjoy the game, and don't hesitate to share your screenshots with me!
Tumblr media
Download :
The swamp of the Forgotten (Mediafire) => Some items are high-polygon Primitive Hut (SFS) => High-polygon 4000~5000 - Base: Eco Lifestyle bb.move ACTIVATE Lot: 50x50 => Residential Price: $30714 Comfort : 1 bedroom and 1 toilet
💕Thank: The designers specializing in medieval CC conversions💕

Folks who are using Simler's mod instead of NRaas StoryProgression -- how is it going for you? I know @oasislandingresident does.
Overall, performance has been great, so that's lovely. However, I have the tuning on to pop up whenever the debugged EA StoryProgression does something, and so far I have seen: 1. In the first couple of game days, some inactives were roped into being Showtime performers, but I have not seen any actual Showtime performers in the town.
2. Emigrating sims
3. Killing sims
4. Assigning several university degrees and rebel/nerd/jock social group assignments every few days.
I have NOT seen: Marriages, births, immigration, house moves, job changes (not sure if I'd be notified of that), or anything that would progress the townsfolk in any meaningful way, particularly increasing the population.
Even with all the bugfixes, it sure looks like the town is depopulating just as much as it would without all of Simler's fixes. There are a notable number of empty residential lots in town.
Also, I set the teen twins to meet new friends at school. They have "met" 2-3 classmates who were homeless and looked like they were generated to be classmates. However, I couldn't get the the classmates to instantiate at all -- the twins could call them, but if they agreed to come over, an error would throw to reset the active sim inviting them. ErrorTrap records what looks like a bad outfit error. I know NRaas has some fixes for that, but I couldn't seem to find one that actually made a difference. Out of frustration, I moved two of the homeless teens into a physical house to see if I could get the game to sort them, but on the next cycle StoryProgression emigrated the household, so now they're gone. The twins have, I think, three classmates.
Now, I may be causing this in some way. I'm still running a bunch of NRaas mods, including the trifecta of ErrorTrap, DebugEnabler, and Overwatch. Overwatch is a tricksy choice, but I have disabled any check that looked likely to conflict. I'm also running NRaas Careers, but I didn't think that actually *progressed* careers, just defined some options custom career options.
Is anyone seeing better behavior with Simler? If so, could we compare mod lists?
If this doesn't get better, I think I'm going to go back to NRaas SP and just try to configure it to have a light touch. NRaas at default settings runs a LOT of events, and considering that I don't switch households, I don't actually care about most of them. It almost instantly pairs off every eligible inactive in town. I want some advancement, but it's awfully nice that a sim who is single when I meet them stays single when they meet the next day.
There are a lot of non-StoryProgression fixes in Simler's mod. In theory, one could run NRaas StoryProgression and still get other fixes from Simler.
Thoughts?

Introduction:
Hi everyone! I decided to take it upon myself to make a sims 3 BACC that I felt satisfied with the rules and restrictions and done similar to BACCs that I've seen done for the sims 2 and 4. This is a living tumblr post and will continuously be updated as I play the challenge myself and see what fits for each restriction I have set. I am very much open to any feedback/opinions on anything regarding this challenge since I want it to be enjoyable to the simblr community and for those who have played the sims 2 BACC and were missing it for the sims 3. This challenge has mods in mind but if anyone would like, I am open to adjusting rules for a non-modded gameplay if needed.
Credit goes to these simmers for giving me inspiration for this challenge, viewing their own challenges and rules helped shape what I personally would like for a sims 3 BACC seeing as I have played some of these challenges myself: @melsie-sims2(Sims 2 BACC), Original Sims 2 BACC, @ts4-bacc(Sims 4 BACC), and finally the Nothing is Free Challenge on MTS by Avalikia

Additional Notes
-Last updated: 5/2/2024
Rules:
1. This challenge is meant to be played rotationally and every sim must be played. That also means that the households must be played the same amount of days to keep aging consistent across each household. Aging is also up to you. 2. Mods are recommended especially for having an easier way to do businesses, Ani’s Merchant mod is a great place to start. If desired I can provide alternate rules & restrictions for no mods gameplay. 3. Services may not be used until you’ve unlocked them, a smoke alarm isn’t allowed until you’ve unlocked the first position for the Firefighter career and the burglar alarm isn’t allowed until a branch has been unlocked in the Law Enforcement career. 4. Sims can own rabbit-hole lots and that can count towards a business, provided the sim has money for it. Though they can’t own a rabbit-hole and a sim-owned business at the same time, it has to be one or the other. 5. Skill-building items aren’t allowed to start off with until your sims earn the simoleons for it. 6. Sims aren’t allowed cars until there’s a car business in the town. Taxis aren’t allowed either until there’s a City Hall established. 7. Electricity isn’t unlocked until a sim has maxed the handiness skill. From there, one computer is allowed per household until an electronics business has been established. 8. When a computer has been unlocked, there are limitations to the build/buy category until the Architect career or a Furniture store has been established or that specific object has a business/rabbit-hole for it, like pet items needing a pet store or no bookshelf until there’s a bookstore, etc. Each household is only allowed to buy 2 items per rotation. However, it’s up to you how realistic and difficult you want your gameplay to be. 9. Boarding schools aren’t allowed until level 5 of the Education career has been unlocked. 10. Sims are allowed to sell items from their inventory. Rocks, gems, and metals can’t be sold in their inventory until the first two positions of the science career have been unlocked. 11. Custom careers are allowed, it's up to you how you want those restrictions set.
                                               ─── ⋆⋅☆⋅⋆ ───
Starting Out:
You must start in an empty world or bulldoze the lots in a world. You’re only allowed residential homes for your sim and a small park as a free starting Community lot. You are free to start with a singular sim or roll a die and start with however many sims you roll and divide them into households or one singular household. There are different ways to start out your sim/sims: 
Start your sims with an empty lot and no simoleons
Start them with 10,000 simoleons to build small homes for them or you may start them with already built houses with the bare necessities and no skill building objects:
A fridge, counters, and a stove
Enough beds for all the sims
A couch and small table
A toilet, sink, and shower/tub
After a home has been established, set the household simoleons down to 100 to get started.
                                               ─── ⋆⋅☆⋅⋆ ───
Unlocking Restrictions:
Each unlock, only gets 1 position open in a career. To keep advancing in a career and unlock all the positions, multiple sims need to max out the specific skill required for a career. Though there are different requirements for each career.
A few of the careers have different requirements for their branches, you may use the previous sims that had unlocked the earlier positions of the careers to unlock the next positions in the branches or use new sims to unlock the different branch positions depending on the requirement. This is the only exception to the previous rule.
Self-employed careers have different restrictions, those careers are unlocked fully when the requirements have been met. Active careers have the same requirements as Full-time careers.
Part-time careers get fully unlocked when the required building is achieved.

Other ways to grow your households:

Moving in a sim from a World Adventures world once you have it unlocked
Using the imaginary friend and turning it real
                                               ─── ⋆⋅☆⋅⋆ ───
University:
To unlock University for your town, completely unlock the Education career and have at least 25 sims earn an A and get on the honor roll for both their child and teenage state. Additionally, you must collect taxes to unlock University. University costs 1,000,000 simoleons to unlock. The careers that come with University will be unlocked once the University also gets unlocked.
                                               ─── ⋆⋅☆⋅⋆ ───
Travel:
For sims to be able to travel, you must collect 500,000 in taxes to unlock travel, unlock 7 services, and have at least 15 households. After traveling has been unlocked, your sims are free to travel anywhere without any further restrictions.
                                               ─── ⋆⋅☆⋅⋆ ───
Taxes:
Taxes aren’t established until you have a City Hall in your town and a sim is in the Political career. Taxes will help contribute costs to unlocking the University and Travel for your town. You are also free to use mods to help with taxes as well and set them to your liking. Sims must get taxed on the last day of their household being played in a rotation. Sims that have 100 simoleons or lower are exempt from paying taxes.
Taxing households:
10% for regular households(households that don’t have any sims owning a business or rabbit-hole)
12% if sims in a household own a sim-owned business/rabbit-hole
15% for rich households
Taxing benefits:
If a household has only unemployed sims, they are given 130 simoleons
Single sims with children are given 150 simoleons
Parents with only toddlers are given 150 simoleons                       
                                               ─── ⋆⋅☆⋅⋆ ───
Additional Notes:
I didn't set Into the Future restrictions since I personally don't send my sims into the future, so it's up to the player on how they want to set restrictions on that.
There's no proper/formal goal for this challenge compared to other BACC challenges. The only main goal is unlocking everything and there's no population multiplier besides the sim CAS points.
This challenge isn't meant to be hard or super difficult besides it being a long challenge. Your game is your game and you're allowed to change things to your liking to make it easy and fun for you to play. Like previously stated I am open to changing things to make them more fun and feedback is always appreciated!

You Are My World Sims 4 Challenge
Welcome to the You Are My World Sims 4 Challenge! 
The goal of this challenge is to create your own world in the Sims 4 starting with no money! This challenge does require the City Living Expansion pack, but I have a base game substitute listed for the City Living requirement so all simmers can play! I am unsure if a challenge like this already exists, so if there is a challenge like it I DO NOT take claims that this is the first of its kind! This challenge does use some rules from the Rags to Riches challenge! I hope you enjoy this challenge, if you do it please use the hashtag #madiplays4 so I can see it :)  
General Rules - 
Start as a Young Adult and have no money (cheat “money 0”)
Bulldoze every lot in the world you decide to live in and start on any empty lot 
Must reach level 10 in the politician career and join the politician branch (City Living)
For base game join the business career and reach level 10 in the investor branch 
Play on either normal or long lifespan (I recommend playing on long lifespan for more gameplay and time for building lots) 
You do not have to finish this in one generation! The oldest heir of every gen will “take over” and they must join the same career as their parents and reach level 10 of the same branch 
The only cheat aloud is the “money 0”  in the beginning! Afterwards, no cheats or mods are allowed to help with things like money, skills, careers, and builds. 
Your sims can only be aged up on their birthday 
Lot traits are allowed for any lots 
If you have the university pack, you can not take your starter sim to university! After heirs can go to University to get a head start on their career but it is not required.  
The challenge is technically finished once all lots in your world have a functional build! 
Build Rules - 
Your builds can be made by you. If you are not much of a build person, pick a lot off the gallery that is in your budget and place it into your world. 
For worlds with 7 or less lots, you must have at least 1 non residential/rental lot for sims to go to. For worlds with 8 or more lots, the world must have at least 2 non residential/rental lots. 
All build must at least be 10 x 6 unless you are building a tiny home 
Townie Rules - 
You can either make your own townies or pick sims off the gallery.
For worlds with 7 or less lots, you must have at least 5 townies. For worlds with 8 or more lots, you must have at least 10 townies. 
World Rules - 
You can do this challenge on any world you would like to! 
The world is yours to design! You can create a kingdom, town, city, or whatever type of world your heart desires.

Tumblr media Tumblr media
Grad school is happening at Magnolia Graduate College.
Leading our group is Dr. Heather Thompson, Dean of Students. She specializes in biology. (Hi, Ingrid’s mom!)
Our students this year:
Andre, Calvin, and Steven are all working on their medical degrees, and Amy is doing her nursing clinicals.
The others are non-medical graduate programs. Justin (architecture) and Natty, (teaching).
Tumblr media
Justin may be a workaholic, but he’s still a geek. He’s studying on nights and weekends while maintaining his home renovation business and blogs, and being a newlywed husband and father of three. Overachieving much? That’s nothing new for Justin, the workaholic that he is. Workaholic except for when the video games are calling him.
— from “postcards from grad school” (1/4)
some gameplay notes on grad school:
The way I’m doing university in my game is that nobody is allowed to do a distinguished degree until they’ve completed a regular degree first. Regular degrees are undergraduate programs where my sims will usually reach level 3-6 in their core skills, while distinguished degrees are considered graduate programs and they are expected to reach levels 6-10. 
I play all three of my own colleges and all of my students are living “at home” in residential lots, so it doesn’t matter which in-game college they attend. So, for undergraduate students, it sometimes requires picking the “wrong” college so that it won’t be a distinguished degree. 
Because I only have one grad school for everyone to attend, I’m not too picky about travel distances being realistic. Many of them are commuters. The med school students need to be residents, but Justin lives in Michigan, and Natty is in Nevada, and Amy is in Washington DC. Considering most of these grad students are in their mid-late twenties, some will be even older, they would have families, jobs, or serious relationships at home. Since this grad school is their only option, I won’t make them spend long times away from their life to go here. They will do most of the semester from home, then commute to campus for a couple of days to take their exams.

You are so good at communal/non residential builds! I really wanted to be able to say that I built all my lots for my bachelorette challenge, but I'm soooo burned out from them xD
Aww, thank you!
Non-residential lots are my favourite.
And I understand how you feel.
Sometimes I get this sudden outburst of ideas for builds and then I leave Sims 4 for a few months because I feel super burnt out.
I had this ambition to remake a lot of builds but lately I can't bring myself to do that.

Zoning Rules 001
Tumblr media
Published: 8-06-2023 | Updated: 9-28-2023
SUMMARY Here are some ideas to try if you’d like to simulate zoning laws in your economy-style saves. These can be used with the City of 2Morrow BACC/Integrated Economy Rules, on their own, or with other challenges. Be sure to adjust for your own gameplay. Zoning rules keep the simoleons flowing and ensure interdependence between lots. Type, size, class, density, ownership, and income on one lot will eventually impact other lots. If you decide to tax based on lot size for example, micro lots might be more affordable for residents but reduce overall tax revenue for other projects in your city. Not all non-residential lots need to be owned, but unowned lots could reduce tax revenue since there is no owner to charge (and having your city pay itself wouldn’t work). In the end, however you choose to apply zoning rules can change your city.
DETAILS DEFINTIONS
Zone refers to the dominant lot type within a region; boundaries are usually artificial (roads, fences, etc.) or natural (rivers, mountains, hills, etc.).
All lots within the same set of boundaries are in the same zone.
If one lot is located across a street from another, the two lots are in separate zones.
LOT TYPES
Residential = homes, apartments, dorms, etc.
Commercial = businesses, hotels, and other community lots
Industrial = production, manufacturing, storage, etc. for community lots
Government = municipal, military, etc.
Hybrid/Mixed = two or more types in the same zone.
LOT SIZE
Micro = 1x1, 1x2 (and inverse sizes)
Small = 1x3, 1x4, 1x5, 1x6, 2x2, 2x3, 2x4 (and inverse sizes)
Medium = 2x5, 2x6, 3x3, 3x4, 3x5, 3x6 (and inverse sizes)
Large = 4x4, 4x5, 4x6, 5x5, 5x6, 6x6 (and inverse sizes)
LOT CLASS (The Sims 2: Apartment Life, EA, 2008)
Low, Middle, and High classes are determined automatically in-game. Mixed class lots may be possible with mods or custom objects.
Determine how lot class impacts life in your city on your own terms.
LOT DENSITY
Density refers to the number of units on a lot.
A residential unit is a house, apartment, or room(s) (dorms, etc.) intended as a separate dwelling.
A commercial unit is a building, enclosed space, or room(s) (hotels, offices, suites, etc.) intended for use by one business.
Owned units are taxed even when unoccupied
Residential and commercial units may be located on the same lot.
Low density = 1-2 units
Medium density = 3-4 units
High density = 5 or more units
