Deep Blue C: Community Lot Cybercafe

C is for coffee, at a reasonable fee. C is for computers, with Bluebyte™ technology. C is for Cafe, a cozy eatery. Caffienate, Consume, Compute, at Deep Blue C!

Description

Deep Blue C is a Cybercafe, provided here in two variants. One is designed as an owned community lot, and the other is designed as an unowned lot. The differences

Operation

For the owned version, place in the neighborhood, purchase and run. In my neighborhood, I run it with the Owner, and two employees: A Janitor, and a Barista. Note that customers are pretty much never going to use the computers on their own. To that end, my solution has been to have the owner routinely start Gaming Competitions. These will engage many of the patrons on the lot, and are somewhat self-sustaining after the owner loses interest. Also, no matter who wins the Gaming Competition, the money goes into the owner's pockets.

The unowned variant has a few more amenities. The ticket machine is removed, and rather than a buffet table, a small restaurant is included. The bathrooms are more opulent, and an Endeavor Game Rack and Cash Register is included.

Requirements

Deep Blue C requires Requires TS2, UNI, NL, OFB, PETS, SZNS, BV, FT as well as Family Fun Stuff, Celebration Stuff, Teen Style Stuff, Kitchen & Bath Stuff.

Useful Hacks

Fairly Paid Regulator, by Monique at Mod the Sims 2
