Fishing in owned community lots
Jfederated:
This also drove me crazy. I have a home-based business; the owner does nothing but paint still lifes for sale. She has never fished or gardened, she is chained to the easel. All other householders fished, but had no fish in their inventories; saw that they were all in the owner's, had the slowly dawning realization, etc.
However, I have one sim in the same household who does strictly all the gardening/harvesting. Produce he harvests does not show up in the business owner's inventory - it remains in his inventory. Can't say if that holds true on an owned community lot as I don't have any yet in this 'hood.

Handy, that. Wonder why it works in this bass-ackward manner.
Theo:
I can confirm again it works this way - the lot owner sim had the entire North Atlantic biota in its inventory - but I think it's wrong.
In my opinion, harvestable goods should go into the lot owner's inventory only if the harvesting sim meets one of these conditions:
Is the owner itselfIs a member of the owner's household (may include the above condition)Is an employee working at the current lot
On all other occasions, those goods should belong to the sim that performed the harvesting, whether or not it is selectable.
Any thoughts?
Sagana:
I dunno - I don't see why just because one sim is selling beans in a farmer's market, that means the other sims should be able to help themselves for free from the apple tree. But I agree with Pes - it's backasswards. I could better see fish going in everyone's inventory and harvest not rather than the other way around. And it's not hard to fence off something you don't want somesim getting to.

I thought of this already, yes.
