Title: No Restaurant Guide Royalties? Post by: PlayLives on 2009 March 03, 17:06:45 I didn't break it, but it seems broke...
After writing a restaurant guide I get a pop-up saying hopefully it does well but there is no call for the sim to get the royalty check. This is on a regular residential lot. Is there something I'm missing about this feature? I assumed it was supposed to work just like writing novels. Anyone else having this problem? Title: Re: No Restaurant Guide Royalties?

Same with the Restaurant Guide sales.

Yes, it would be nice to have the call/money collected regardless if the ringer is off. Title: Re: No Restaurant Guide Royalties?

It might pass your filter, but didn't EAxis include a less-functional "turn off ringer" in AL? |
