Otherwise Sims may continue to find a way to get in.Direct Controls is a mod for The Sims 4 that adds a whole new way of playing the game, by letting you control your Sim's every move. I also suggest locking the door to everyone. To close click on the door again and close down both options. Open them both or just experiment with one or the other.

To open the theater click on the door, you’ll see the options to “Open Own Business”, and “Open Live In Store”. Click the TV to stop the movie which the Sims watching will eventually leave. You can have the movie play for as long as you want but I try to get a few showings done per day. Similar to how I imagine real movie theaters operate. As they’re watching the movie, clean up the mess they left and restock. Once the theater was full I’d start the movie. When I opened the theater Sims would slowly populate but eventually started purchasing the items quickly. Store the items in the fridge so they don’t spoil, and then stock the display case for sims to purchase these items. The system I had in place was to cook early before opening. In my theater I cooked candy bars, made juice to replace sodas, and popped popcorn for customers to purchase. Be prepared to have some things to still figure out. CC can sometimes break and cause mods not to work. These may work for you if you have limited custom content. This feature didn’t seem to work well either. If you want to add a bar you can and sell custom drinks to the customers. Although it’s trial and error to set them for sale. You can select up to 30 Sims.Ĭustom Food Interactions Mod and Custom Drink Interactions Mod will let you add new recipes like candy bars to the fridge. Click on the TV you’ve set up as the movie screen to pick any of the customers to watch the show. Customers arrive to purchase whatever you’ve set for sale.

Together it spawns customers and movie goers. Set the lot venue type to “Cinema”, and add the “Live In Store” lot trait. The More Buyable Venues Mod and Live In Business Mods are required to make this work.

My theater had a kitchen and concession area, back office, bathrooms, and the area to watch movies. There should be some good options on the gallery or build one of your own.
