SimGurus took some time to answer some of our questions about Apartments in The Sims 4 City Living. Check out what they have to say about what’s new, what’s gone and what’s changed with Apartments in The Sims 4.
NOTE: We’ll be updating this post as new tweets get posted.
@SimGuruJM : will we be able to set these traits when building new apartments ? 🙂
— ladyteruki (@ladyteruki) September 20, 2016
You can set the traits on any lot! Up to 3. Cheap apartments have certain traits locked from the get-go however, such as cursed or filthy. https://t.co/joFmyTASN8

@SimGuruJM How many traits are there?
— Cheesetruck (@Cheesetruck) September 20, 2016
Don’t have the exact number in front of me, but ~20+. We’ll be talking about them more soon! https://t.co/M5gRn44Hkh

@SimGuruJM @SimGuruDaniel Are Apartment neighbours randomly generated or can we pick and choose our neighbours?
— HazzaPlumbob (@HazzaPlumbob) September 20, 2016
You can pick and choose which neighbors live in your building’s units, just like placing neighbors in a house next-door in older worlds 🙂 https://t.co/WenUUGmgto

@SimGuruJM can we decorate apartments?
— Kieran Patton (@PattonKieran) September 20, 2016
Of course! Certain items you can’t get rid of/move (electrical box, plumbing) but decorate away! https://t.co/tW6rH16QIV

@SimGuruJM Is there a loading screen when you visit neighbors in your apartment building?
— Satho (@Sathos_voice) September 20, 2016
To enter their apartment, yes. You can knock on their door, hang out in the common area, go outside, visit a festival, w.o loading tho https://t.co/GzFeHw1PPs

.@SimGuruJM if you want to move in your Sim in an apartment, are there multiple apartments to choose from in 1 building?
— Platinum Simmers (@platinumsimmers) September 20, 2016
Yeah! Most have 2-3 apartments in the building. I believe one has 4! https://t.co/kVelLTRinZ

@SimGuruJM Does that include moving/deleting interior walls? or changing out doors? Just curious how far we can go.
— Luth (@luthsthings) September 20, 2016
Interior walls and doors can be moved and deleted, yes. Just can’t move outside walls, windows or the front door (you’re just renting!) https://t.co/suFdUqa0Sn

@SimGuruJM and we have 3 building in world?
— The Sims Serbia (@thesimsserbia) September 20, 2016
Way more than 3 buildings across the neighborhoods. It’s a big world! https://t.co/6mDpGFYWSC
— JM Sudsina (@SimGuruJM) September 20, 2016
@SimGuruJM So you can actually have multiple families living in the buildings?! 😀
— Rebecca ‘Pekka’ (@hernameispekka) September 20, 2016
Yup! And you’ll see them all the time: using the trash chute, coming over if they smell you cooking a nice meal, complaining if you’re loud https://t.co/N9HnEa2kOI

@SimGuruJM So…. Plumbing like, I can’t rearrange the placement of toilets/sinks etc, or plumbing like those leaky pipes?
— Spacey Sims (@SpaceySims) September 20, 2016
Just those leaky pipes! Sorry- should have specified. https://t.co/6a0DxoTGwU
