EDITING YOUR TOWN

Customize your town to suit your Sims. Perhaps the sports stadium is the most important place to your Sims

and you want to give it a more central location. Or maybe there is community lot in a prime location and

you’d like to make it residential. You can do all of this and more!

From the Options menu, choose EDIT TOWN. Your view of the town changes and you have new tools:

Select Tool

Use the select tool to choose lots in the town. Map tags denote the type of lot and what actions are available

on the lot.

When selecting a lot, you have some combination of the following options, depending on lot type:

Evict Move all Sims to the clipboard, with or without a copy of their home

Split Up Send some of the members of the household to the clipboard.

Merge With Combine the members of the household with another household.

Save to Library Place a copy of the household or lot in the library.

Share Save a copy to the launcher for upload.

Change Lot Type Change lot types between community and residential.

Edit Details Edit the name and descriptions of the household or lot.

NOTE: If you evict all Sims from your current active household, you will no longer be able to play with

them. You can continue editing the town, but you will need to select the CHANGE ACTIVE HOUSEHOLD button

and select a new household before continuing to play. If you simply want to ﬁnd your active household

another house, you can use the phone, computer, or newspaper in Live Mode to move.

Move Lot Tool

With this tool you can pick up any lot in the town and move it to an empty lot elsewhere.

After you place a lot, you have the opportunity to rotate it to any suitable orientation. If there are people living

on the lot, they must have enough funds to afford the empty lot on which they are being placed.

Build/Buy Tool

Use the Build/Buy tool to edit any unoccupied home in the game, or to build entirely new homes on empty lots.

Bulldozer Tool

Use the bulldozer tool to delete everything on a lot, converting it to an empty lot.

NOTE: You cannot build on or bulldoze an inhabited residential lot. If you want to alter an inhabited

residential lot, you must ﬁrst evict the current Sims.

NOTE: You are also free to get rid of work locations, although it will make certain careers unavailable. For

example, if you get rid of the Science Lab, your Sims will be unable to join the Science career.

The Clipboard

The clipboard, which appears on the left side of the screen, is temporary storage for Sims you’ve split or

evicted from the world. Sims on the clipboard can be placed into their own home in the town using the

PLACE option, or merged into an existing household using the MERGE WITH …’ option. Sims on the clipboard

retain their relationships with other Sims in the town they were evicted from, However, the clipboard clears

when you exit Edit Town mode, so be sure to place Sims back into the town before you start playing again.

The Library

The library is permanent storage for households and lots. Sims and lots in the library are available at all

times to place into any town. Use the PLACE COPY option to copy a selected item into the town. You cannot

edit items in the library, but can delete or share them at any time. Households created in Create A Sim, as

well as lots/households that you share or download, are automatically placed in the library. Sims saved into

the library lose all relationships with members of their town of origin.
