There are modified staircases, sometimes called "stealth stairs", which allow players without Open for Business or Apartment Life to simulate elevators, at least to some extent. However, players may not be able to combine elevator sections made as custom content with Maxis elevator sections. For example, an elevator can have a "Going Somewhere" section on the bottom level, and "Ultravator" sections on upper levels. Players can "mix and match" Maxis door sections when building an elevator. If a Sim went through a plummet in a bad mood, they might die. After a cable snap, the elevator will need to be repaired before it can be used. Sims on lots with elevators may have a fear of a cable snapping. Occasionally, the cable may snap, plummeting the elevator to the lowest level, and will lower the comfort, bladder, energy, fun and hygiene motives of the Sim inside. If Pets is installed, pets can ride the elevator on their own.Įlevators can sometimes be dangerous to Sims traveling in them, especially in lower-grade, cheaper elevators. The Sim will enter the elevator and then shortly afterwards appear on the selected floor. A player can manually direct a Sim to use an elevator by clicking on the door and selecting "Go To This Floor". Sims will usually prefer taking the elevator over the stairs. Unlike staircases, elevators can only be used by one Sim at a time.
It is also possible to omit certain floors from service by placing The Ultravator Shaft by SchafftCo instead of an elevator door on the selected floors this allows elevators to skip floors while still servicing floors above or below it. Elevator doors do not need to face the same direction on all floors as long as the shafts align vertically, the doors can face any direction. It is possible to place flooring on the top of a door or shaft section, which allows an elevator to be built against an exterior wall. The lowest part of an elevator must be placed on terrain or a floor all other parts must be placed on a floor. Elevator doors act like other doors-they penetrate walls, and wall coverings will wrap around them. These items were reintroduced in Apartment Life, along with the Multiple Multi-Purpose Elevator, which costs §950.Įlevators have a 2x2 footprint, with the two squares in front of the door being reserved. There is also The Ultravator Shaft by SchafftCo, which is an empty elevator shaft with no doors that costs §500 it can be used if the player does not want an elevator to stop on a particular floor. There are two elevators in Open for Business The Ultravator by SchafftCo, for §1250, and The Going Somewhere by UppersCo, for §1400. 1.1.3 The Ultravator Shaft by SchafftCo.
