Help! Appartment and Cars
winema:
Hi!
Hope someone please can help me with this issue. When I build new lots with garages and change them into appartmentbases the residents can't buy cars. Why is this?? Is there a bug in the game or am I missing something?
EKozski:
Do you have a driveway in them?
winema:
of course I insert driveways! But still when I move in a family the can't buy cars... I get a message with "out of bound on everything outside... I can only place objects inside the appartment and on the back porch... Can't even place a dog house in the yard!
ancienthighway:
For apartments and garages to work together, the garage must be part of the apartment. It must be attached. It must be accessable from the apartment, and only the apartment (garage door doesn't count).
If you built your apartments with garages similar to the way houses are built, that is the driveway and garages up one side of the lot and the apartments in the center and other side, it won't work.
Unless you've used Numenor's invisible walls or fences in combination with regular fences to enclose the driveway, cars can only be placed in garages. Driveways are considered to be in the common area.

I have to say one thing..... What an idiotic idea!! It ruins a lot of fun for those of us (who apparantly never learn that maxis have their own opinion on what's the only way to do things) who like to build realistic neighbourhoods.... In real life we have 2 and 4 appartments that looks like a regular house with garages on the side... Maybe not in the States... But I'm from Scandinavia, apparently we do things a bit different when i comes to building houses.... Grrrrr!
