FAQ: Nightlife - EP2

Vampyre:
To build a garage in nightlife all you need is a driveway, an extension, a garage door and enough  money to cover the cost of building it.

 
   In this picture, I have attempted to place a driveway on one side of the lot, but it's being obstructed by something.  That's why it's highlighted in red.
Something needs to go.  Could it be that tree in the way?

Vampyre:
I moved the tree over a little.  I also positioned the driveway a slight distance away from the house.

  Garages and house foundations don't get along very well.  Keep this in mind if you are going to try to build a garage attached to a house.  It will only work if the house does not have a foundation.

  Now the driveway is highlighted green and can be placed.

Vampyre:
Now I've clicked on the driveway extension and am placing it at the end.

  I have plenty of room and it's lined up with driveway so it is highlighted in green and ready to place.

Vampyre:
Now comes the garage door.

  The trick to placing the door is to find the point where the driveway and driveway extension meet.

  You want to place the door exactly there.

  Watch the bottom of the garage door when you're placing it.  When the highlight turns green you've found the right spot.

Vampyre:
The last step is just building the walls, adding a roof and slapping on some paint.  This is just the same as in regular house building.

  Do that and you have a functional garage.

  My example may not be gorgeous... but it is functional!

 You can add extra details as you get familiar with it.
