can we buy vacation homes while visiting regular towns?

Post by Ghiby » November 3rd, 2022, 1:03 am

hi all,

I was excited to discover the Traveler mod, since I love EP Adventures and I've wanted to travel to any regular town, as a vacation destination, and it looks like we can do so with the Traveler, which is great, I love it so far...

but, can we buy a vacation home - or more than just one - while visiting any regular town for vacation?

at a first glance, it looks like we can't, except the first time visiting the town, we get the main home in that town, but it looks like we can't buy any extra additional homes in the town we're visiting...

unless I don't know how to do it, that's why I am asking here for extra help, maybe there is an extra setting I need to do or something like that...

so, that's my question, can we buy additional vacation homes in a town we're visiting, and if yes, how do we do that..??..

thank you

Lots with the lot type Residential: Regular cannot be purchased that way.

The lot(s) in question need to be set to Residential: (Player) Ownable first so that they appear on the map as able to be purchased properties. Due to a bug with Edit Town, many players find they need to change the lot type to Community (anything, No Visitors Allowed will do) first and then Residential: Ownable to get the lot type change to stick.

aha... I had a feeling something could be done to make it happen and I don't know "how to" do it

I guess that's exactly what I was looking for, as always you're right on the spot with your answers

thank you for your fast response
