No Auto-Disappearing Cars (Let them Park Anywhere)

Also, to those who don’t know, you can still do those Wash Car, Repair, Open Trunk, etc. interactions with your car.

All you have to do is click the “Mount” button, wait for the car to appear in the world, then cancel the interaction before your Zoi gets in. The car will stay in the world, and you can click it to do all the interactions with the Zoi who owns the car.

I’m also in favor of being able to park the cars anywhere on one’s own property or in parking lots. I find the current feature of having to take it out of one’s pocket rather silly.

Well, I don’t mind being able to spawn the cars from anywhere, but I do wish they’d persist when we want them to! I saw that the team is improving the parking system, but I’m unsure what exactly that means.

Yes please, I wanna park my car everywhere and imagine the possible gameplay by parking wrong, either in a “no-parking” zone or parking for too long without that thing you have to put in the front window, this would make so funny gameplay pleasee :folded_hands:t2::folded_hands:t2::folded_hands:t2:

I love these!! I dislike the phone car store because usually you still have to pick up your car from somewhere and it just doesn’t get delivered to you, and especially not spawn to you :sob:

Omggg imagine we can have disabilities in the game and when you have one and have the papers for it, you can actually park there, without getting a fine to pay, I’d also love to see zois in a :woman_in_manual_wheelchair:t2: thing or :woman_with_white_cane:t2: and all!!

You can’t actually put your car in your pocket. I think the same thing. Im happy with the one-click car summoning feature. But of course it shouldn’t disappear once you get out of the car.

Vehicle parking—being able to actually park your car, own multiple cars, choose them, transfer them, and gift them—was also discussed.
This time, we will do our best to get parking into the update. ^^;

This has been mentioned a few times, so let’s hope the car feature will be improved in future.

I know the devs have expressed concern about persistent cars in the world, and I think I can see why - there were issues with too many cars building up in TS3 IIRC, which many of us used a mod to “clean” on a daily basis to prevent lag. That could potentially be a problem here too, though perhaps only player cars should be persistent?

I also think it would be a good compromise to only have cars present where there are dedicated parking spots, which could be placed in build or street edit mode, allowing us to place them outside houses and in carparks. That way the population of parked cars would be controlled (especially if spaces could only be occupied by player’s cars, not npcs’).

Also it’d be sweet if we could drive with a controller WSAD is too primitive

YES WE NEED IT. I live in Cahaya, and there is a road made of dirt, and I need to walk to the normal road to spawn my car :sob::sob:

I want garage to actually have function, and not just for lawnmower as a decoration.
