Currently, my controller on this one lot is set to accept Romance and Pleasure sims but reject all others. It is set to accept playables and nonplayables. If I were to set Override on Romance and deny on playables, then the Override would take precedence, right? Even if deny was set for playables, any Romance sim, playable or not would be allowed. Is this correct?
Right. Any romance sim, regardless of anything else, would appear. You may, in fact, not wish to use this setting. In practical implementation, I've found that this setting is really not-so-good as of the OR-block system, and may be removed in the future. You'd be better off setting two blocks.
RainbowTigress:
Actually, it was a hypothetical question. I am actually using the settings to accept all families and all Romance and Pleasure sims. I don't have any overrides. It seems to be working quite well. I was just trying to think of a situation where I would use an override, but it doesn't seem very often.
witch:
How does this work with TwoJeffs' visitor controller?

I can't think of any really good one, either, ever since we devised the multi-block idea. That's why it's being classified as a deprecated feature and will probably be discontinued in the next version, since it uses up a massive amount of bit and string space to map a trinary optionset onto a binary storage system.
Ancient Sim:
I have to say that I am totally and utterly confused. I think the only way I am going to understand this is to try it out. From what I can understand from noplayableshoppers, if I put a money order on the business lot, any playable can visit, but if I don't put one on the business lot, only playables with them in their inventory can visit? And if there is no money order on the lot and no playables have them in their inventories, they can still visit if you designate them to do so?
Presumably it will only work on a residential lot if it's designated as a home business? I was just thinking it would come in handy for Romance Sims if their partner was at work and they wanted to ensure that all passers-by were of similiar persuasion ... I don't like creating home businesses anymore because of the problem with guests just disappearing as soon as they're greeted. It makes it impossible to play the lot normally when the business is closed and it's VERY annoying. The only ones who stay are those brought back from work and even they start complaining after a while.
OK, I've used it now and I have to say that it's very awesome. Works a treat. Has got me all excited about going to my businesses again (well, sort of - well, not really, it's still boring, but it makes it easier to bear).
