    Laundry Hampers

    Random question....there are 3 two decorative hampers in the game (one in Parenthood and the other two in the Base Game) will there be any scope in upgrading these as additional laundry hampers?

      I have a feeling they won't be "upgraded" to have gameplay functions, but I don't know. I mean that'd be cool though.

      I believe it has been stated that existing hampers will not be made functional (I forgot the reasoning behind why) but the new ones will be. Maybe it is something modders will be able to address if you use mods in your game? If not I hope that there are at least a nice variety of swatches to choose from

      It’s probably cause that would be patching in a feature that only people who buy the game would use

      Or they could make those previous hampers actually functional if you bought Laundry Day, but you know, guess that might not be happening.

      I think that it has more to do with the fact that putting a functional hamper on a lot sets laundry into action. If you don't, or at least that is how it worked in TS3 and they said it would be the same, then you don't have piles of clothes or the need to wash them. So if they updated the decorative hampers and someone has those on a lot but don't have the laundry pack, it will cause programming issues. Some people like the look of the hampers but don't want to do the laundry. I would love more functional hampers, but I get why the decorative ones won't work.

      That makes sense because then people would have to take all the hampers out of the houses that they don't want laundry to be enabled in and that would be such a chore for the player.

      If they aren't upgraded they'll still see a lot more use from me as decorations.
      I rarely use them right now.

      You can place a fake laundry hamper anywhere for décor purposes. If you have a working one somewhere on your lot, all the dirty clothes will go into it.

      I think they confirmed somewhere (I think it was on Twitter) that they aren't updating the previous ones.
