Getting neighbours in AL to visit you

(1/3) > >>

Telcara:
I pretty much don't play families on lots with multiple apartments. The few times I tried, I got annoyed when I couldn't invite the neighbours over (to clarify: on the same lot - not neighbours on other lots). I kind of like the idea to keep friends and family on the same lot as neighbours, but having parties without them gets rather boring. Only time a neighbour has stuck around in the playable sim family's apartment is when they've asked the neighbour to babysit.

I haven't looked more into this and figure it would be better to ask others if this is how it works or if my game is messed up in some ways?

GelatinousSubstance:
It's been a while since I've played in apartments due to ultra glitchiness. But if I recall correctly, you can knock on the neighbors door and ask them to come out (or something along those lines). Then you can introduce them to the other people in your party, and they generally stick around.

Two things to make sure of are that your doors are unlocked and that you have something more fun and interactive to do in your apartment than any of the public areas.

dragoness:
If you ask them to come out and you have a good enough relationship with them, they'll come out. Only thing is that they treat the public areas and the inside of your apartment the same - you might have to go inside and call them over to get them in.

Or are you meaning that you can't do things such as invite them by phone, or include them in guest lists for parties? Did you check and make sure the person has a phone?

Sairsadel:
It's not just your game.  Using the phone, I can get a Sim to invite another over from a neighbouring apartment, and they express the usual enthusiasm but don't show up.
