Hello and welcome to the EA Build Restrictions Challenge!
We all know that EA has some mysterious restrictions that they’ve placed on the team that builds the houses they ship with the Sims. And while they’ve been reluctant to share their rules, they HAVE given us nearly 100 lots that follow those restrictions.
THEREFORE, by counting items and types-of-items used, we can guess with a fair degree of accuracy what the rules are! And lucky for you, I’ve done the counting!
You can find my spreadsheet of item types, lots, and prices here.
With this data, you can get as granular as you want with the rules, but frankly, this challenge is tough as nails so I’d recommend going broader first.
And, just to get started, I’ve typed up some basic starter challenges. For the sake of these challenges, “items” implies anything that is placed individually. This includes windows, doors, and columns, as well as landscaping and all furnishing. The prices do not include the lot.
