Too many sims at downtown's lots!

(1/6) > >>

gali:
I read somewhere that the downtown lots are empty, awkwardly 2-3 sims.

Why this doesn't happen to me? Always when I manage a group and go to some lot - 10-15 sims come together with my group, and I can't "breeze"! I go to another lot - the same happens again! And the d...n lots are small, not enough space to move among so many sims.

Do I have to delete more townies? It's very annoying!

Ancient Sim:
I don't know how it works because the original game set my default number of visiting Sims to 2, which I changed to 8 in the cheat file.  When I installed NL, it changed my cheat file from 8 to 6, although I've put it back to 8.  Nevertheless, I always get 10-12 townies visiting downtown lots and still get that amount even if my Sims are on outings of 7-8 people.  Then there are all the working NPC's on top.  Seems a bit stupid that it sets a limit at all really, if it's happy for me to have 25+ Sims on a lot with my 'unsupported' video card.

Motoki:
When I installed NL my max # of sims allowed went down to 4. The downtown lots didn't have many people. When I added the cheat to my startup file and changed it to 8 now I start getting a whole lot of sims downtown. You could try doing the cheat code intProp maxNumOfVisitingSims 4 before going downtown and see if that makes a difference.

gali:
I have an option to create a group of 8 sims going downtown, but I always limit the group to 3 or 4 sims. I am talking about the invasion of the townies in the small lots of downtown, which prevent my sims to fulfill all their wishes, as dining, bowling, etc. When I invite the group at home, they are far more happy...:).

MissDoh:
Do you know how many Sims you can have on a communitly lot?  You could use the cheat "intprop maxnumofvisitingsims" to lower it down instead of up to see if it will help.

I personally have it set by the game to 2.  When I go on regular neighborhood community lots and University lots I don't have more than 2 unless I use the cheat mention above.  But when I go on downtown lots, I always have 4 or 5 townies + the NPC (bartender, dj, etc).  I don't know how the game set this is up now but definitely something is wrong in the way the game calculates it.

When I go on downtown lots I put a maxnumofvisitingsims at 4.  When I go on other community lots I put it at 8.
