Title: Not able to buy groceries downtown Post by: Emma on 2005 December 01, 23:49:47 This was for a main neighbourhood lot, I sent my sim downtown in her own car to buy groceries from the fresh rush grocery, and all the grocery bins and fridges were unclickable! The fridge was just the mini one if that makes any difference, and I was able to order groceries over the phone when I got her home. Does anyone know what might have caused this? I have had no trouble before with buying groceries from downtown community lots.

It's a bit stupid, but apparently intentional. Title: Re: Not able to buy groceries downtown Post by: Torkle on 2005 December 01, 23:51:36 You can't buy groceries downtown unless you live downtown. The game needs to be able to find your refrigerator in the neighborhood that you are buying groceries in, and your refrigerator is not in downtown.

I find it all quite amusing. :D Ste |
