    Only 10 Mannequins Per Lot

    Every time I try to do something, I'm discovering that this game is more and more limiting. I am creating a department store and was trying to place 3 clusters of each age mannequin and made that discovery. Oy!

      The reason behind this is the game considers the mannequins as Sims,just without the interactions and needs intact. This is so you can customize them in CAS just like a normal Sim. I remember a SimGuru posting about it awhile ago. I believe having more than 10 could cause lag or other issues but I'm not 100% on that.

      Because Developers made sure Mannequins were worthwhile, and made them basically frozen Sims. Which is why you can edit them in CAS.
      The only reason why there are limits is because your computer would crash if you placed down like 30 frozen Sims xD

      Workaround:
      You can probably remove the extra walls, as needed.

      Edit: A warning for anyone bypassing the limit. It could essentially reduce the number of visiting sims to zero if you place too many, as they do count towards the sim limit:

      I just found out about the 10 mannequin limit today, too. It's nice to know there's a workaround, but it also looks like kind of a pain to do. :(

      It is going to be a pain in the rear. I already built the lot so adding rooms to it is really going to mess it up.
