when u find a bike (or any draggable item) in the dumpster.. you have to put it first in your own lot. then go to build buy and put it in the household inventory for the game to consider it as your own

[@mel_diamonddove9913]

Thanks! I never knew there was an actual work-around 😂 I just always had to pay attention to be sure my sim didn't forget the bike somewhere lol

The game will eventually return the bike to you if it gets left somewhere, but it takes a little while.

Hey James, loving the first episode! Don't forget with the food stand, you can use dragable appliances with it now so Laird can carry on making food while still at the table 😁

[@Zhizhuzye]

yes, especially because Laird also payed for that rice cooker

[@kw6033]

The pressure cooker requires chopping up for making food. I don’t think you can use it on the table. Although plain rice might work. Ice cream might be good in the summer. I don’t know how good the return is

For the White Cake situation, it's the Foodie NAP. Get rid of it, and disable NPCs from voting for NAPs in the options. This is why I don't play with any of the NAPs, most of them just cause really annoying stuff like the white cake making to happen.

[@kw6033]

Yeah, and might also be the other fitness nap that was causing so many sit-ups

[@luizaferreiradacosta95]

If anyone has the 'have the property owner visit your unit' bug where it doesn't fulfill even though you asked the owner over, instead invite them to your lot via the relationship panel, not the phone, that should make it complete the task

[@unicornsunite7027]

Helpful Hint: For the best profit on the food stand, I've found that Challah (jewish bread; cooking level 2) will sell for $189 at LEVEL 2 and it goes for like $500 up at higher cooking skill😁 good luck getting rich! P.S. imo "give sales pitch" is useless. It just distracts the sims from buying and it just takes longer ... Running the food stand and just standing there is the most effective way to make money😂

[@christabelle__]

The give sales pitch thing has repeatedly gotten sims to buy, in my experience. (And IRL I just got done with a challah sandwich...mmm I love challah...)

[@HighlyEducated_Ashh]

For the Complain about conditions: click on a scuffed item, like the air conditioner, and complain to a neighbor about it. That will check it off!

[@sitracyto]

Honestly, James is my fave creator in terms of the content for For Rent. Looking forward to good times in this Let’s Play!

Given how the new world is prone to heat waves and that there's constantly tons of people on the lot, I wonder if we'll get another "James accidentally killed everyone, let's do a 17-part sidequest to bring everyone back to life" bit. I wouldn't be mad.

Are you planning on having Laird save up and buy that $20k run-down apartment building you built a month ago? It’d be cool to watch you slowly renovate that build through gameplay.

[@DindellaTheDefender]

I think if you have the recycle challenge trait that you'll have a better chance of things getting tossed in the dumpster. Namely, because the regular bins will get filled up pretty quickly. And then you can use the (almost) infinite rummage trick to get more parts for repairing and upgrading. Here's how it works: Rummage trashcan. Trashpile appears. Scavenge trashpile for parts. Rummage trashpile. Sort recycling or compost until trashcan is empty. Throw trashpile away. Repeat.

[@NicoleLaurenEsq]

I had reuse and recycle on and my dumpster was filled at all times.

[@svideos5754]

Maybe you should put the new mini fridge and pressure cooker in your room so if the stuff in the shared space breaks you have back up

[@trinitysmith778]

Im super excited for this series hopefully it isnt too buggy

[@potted_plant]

when you find a bike in the dumpster, you have to put it in your home inventory so it becomes yours or whatever.

[@mossyrocks3967]

I'm SO excited. I adore every single Bigwallet/Rags to Riches series.

[@SomeoneBeginingWithI]

9:54 the burnt furniture can be recycled and then you can use the materials to craft new furnitire on the fabricator. When you start getting random dyes from the dumpsters you could use them to fabricate furniture in whatever colours the dyes happen to be.

So excited! I wanted to let you know that your videos is what always brings me back to playing the sims 4 after a break. I play very differently than you and I try to embrace a different play style to experience more of the game, and you are my inspiration in doing so! Thank you for posting such awesome videos, it truly makes my day watching your videos :)

[@catacriste1997]

landlords replace burnt items! Just go to rental -> ask to inspect -> shared unit object -> and select the burnt one. Also, a tip, whenever you can upgrade the dryer to lint-less or clean the lint because the neighbour's keep starting fires all the time Since you get burnt items from the dumpster, does it mean you can make the landlord fix it for free? hmmm

[@kw6033]

For the selling table, you can put woodworking objects in the home chef hustle table. Add a carved dragon or horse along with the rice to give your customers variety. Also, take advantage of the “convince to buy” option when you have multiple things for sale. You can try and get them to buy the most expensive item (similar to recommend dish from dine out.) Putting food in the fridge means your neighbors will eat it. It’s better to just store the stuff in your table it will keep longer than in your inventory and no one will eat it. I haven’t played this part time job yet, but it looks like the pay is glitched the same as streamer. In that job you’d get $10 for work at home and much more for going to work.

[@BattyBigSister]

I honestly don't care what James does in this Let's Play as long as he's less stressed than in the last one. It's never fun when James isn't having fun.

[@ryuusei1907]

I feel like James should be able to replace replaceable appliances and cheat the money back in certain cases (like the YumCooker, since it was a random event, and the grill, because Glenifer McGlorbin was the one who set it on fire). It's ridiculous to use Laird's money to replace things she didn't break in the first place.

[@nat90ss]

I was wondering when it was going to come! So much looking forward to this LP. Thank you James!

To some, you are James Turner, but to me you will always be the sims supply. I can’t believe I am 27 and would watch you as The Sims Supply over 10 years ago!

I think you should clear up the counter space or add some more counters so they stop leaving food unmade😭

[@JamesTurnerYT]

[@metzamo]

Pretty sure the constant making (and not finishing) of white cakes is due to the "Foodies Unite!" NAP. Might be worth voting to remove it!

[@Lux_Familiar]

[@hangoutwithcee]

Not sure if you’ll see this! But since you’re using mods for this LP as well- LittleMsSam has a NPC mod so employees will auto spawn if you have the lot trait on. It’ll be helpful in the community space so the bartender will spawn without you paying for it! Hopefully you see this. The mod is called “Auto Employees”

After that, she can sell whatever she has left over at the Night Market.

[@grazyrj]

I was also playing with the handyperson career and to complain about objects, you need a used object, doesn't need to be broken but that's easier to see, and you need to select the object itself to complain about it to someone else. Used objects seem to be a new feature, where over time certain objects will get worn down and need to be "freshened up".

[@laurenvanraalte]

I’ve been using the fabricator to craft things in my Rags to Riches - I think it makes more money since the cost is just bits and pieces. Plus I’ve used it to craft furniture for my tenant units once I had my own property!

[@Chet_Thornbushel]

I’ve only had the white cake glitch when visiting a lot once and it was in a household I made of Mr. Rogers, Levar Burton of Reading Rainbow, and Steve from Blues Clues 😂 It was kind of cute because wanting to make cake anytime someone visits is a very wholesome thing but literally every surface in the house had mixing bowls and cakes on it 😂 It is odd that the glitch hasn’t been fixed yet and that sims do it in the shared space in the rental space
