Two-story lobby:
Hold Ctrl when placing the first lobby section.
Start with $4 million:
Begin a new game and attempt to place a lobby section all the way to the bottom and the left of the edit
screen.
Automatic removal:
Hold Shift when placing a new unit over an existing item.
Hints: Determining elevator use:
Use the following trick to tell if Sims are waiting to go up or down on an elevator. Remember the mnemonic
'LARD'. People waiting to the 'L'eft of the elevator are 'A'scending, while those waiting to
the 'R'ight of the shaft are 'D'escending. Note: This only works if you have elevators positioned
so that Sims can go on either side of the elevator. If you have elevators on the edges of your tower,
you will only see them on one side.
Hints: Tower tips:
The metro station requires a subway tunnel running the entire length of the landform on B10.
If you build anything on B10 except the Metro Station, you will not be able to place it. Even
if you bulldoze things that were placed on B-10, the floor section will remain, and even the smallest
floor section will block the Metro tunnel. The only exception to this is the 'lots of money' cheat
and the elevator mechanisms that 'hang down' from elevators which terminate on floor B9.
Contrary to the manual, you do not have to bring all service elevators to the recycling center. It would
be impossible since service elevators can only go 30 floors.
Just like real-life towers in real cities, you'll find that stores, theaters and other commercial establishments
usually do well in the basement. But they also bring in a lot of traffic from outside.
In order to keep your 'permanent' population upstairs happy, you may need to have elevator service
that services only the basement levels and the floor 1 lobby.
If you build a regular elevator that passes through a recycling center, you may occasionally see people
get on and off in mid-air on the upper floor of the recycling center.
One successful strategy is to keep offices and condos totally separated by building entire floors of
offices and entire floors of condos. You might want to mix fast food joints with offices on the floor
just above each lobby and put all your stores, movie theaters, etc. in the basement levels.
How can you tell if SimCitizens are waiting to go up or down an elevator? Remember the mnemonic LARD.
People waiting to the 'L'eft of the elevator are 'A'scending, while those waiting to the 'R'ight
of the shaft are 'D'escending.
To key having a good tower is to not place any condos. Only put offices you get the second star. After
that, put in hotels and offices. If desired, you can now put in a fast food place and make money
until you get a third star. Then, put in a recycling center and a large parking lot. You are now
ready to put in a movie theater, stores, and a party hall. When you run out of room do not think you
can go any higher, put in an elevator on the 15th floor, then the 30th floor. By doing this, you
can have an 104 story tower.
Hints: Extra money:
Use the magnifying glass to click on the condo that is marked 'For Sale'. A message similar to 'The conditions
are terrible' will appear.. Click on the current price, and lower it to $4,000. The comments
will disappear, but do not exit. Immediately after the price has been lowered, increase it to
$20,000. Note: This trick can also be used with other rooms, such as offices, hotel rooms, and the
small retail shops.
Build an elevator in the middle of your tower, then stretch it to the B3 floor. Place fast food facilities
on both sides of the elevator. This will result in $200,000.
Hints: Condos:
Do not build condos unless you want fast money and fast. They are a quick fix to a solution that could
easily be resolved by some other way.
Hints: More people:
When you get three stars, place a lot of hotel rooms. Do not place suites. Place a good security system
and a good housecleaning system. Minimize the game, but do not pause it. Mute the sound, and turn
off your monitor and allow the game to run overnight. The game will automatically look for bombs
call the fire rescue crew. When bombs are searched for, hotel sims do not check out, so they are
added as permanent population. Nothing bad will happen if you planned it correctly. You may place
a suite when you have the desired population.
Hints: Restore terrible condos:
When people leave condos because of terrible conditions, get the magnifying glass, click on the condo,
take the price down to $40,000. The terrible conditions comment should disappear, and you can raise
and re-sell it at a normal price.
