Apartments on foundations with private backyards - Tutorial
I have had a few requests to show how to make apartments on a foundation with a private backyard to each, so here it is.
Before we start you will need an invisible fence

Here is the apartment in neighbourhood view, as you can see its not working as it should.
First will have to change the lot back to residential (changeLotZoning residential)
This apartment has two units and we want a backyard for each thats private.
If we tried to change it now (changeLotZoning apartmentbase) it will come up with an error message.
To start you need to delete the stairs for both apartments at the back
Now add a peice of foundation where the stairs were
Now you need to use the invisible fence and enclose the foundation you just built
Delete the two bits of foundation (it wont delete the fencing)
Type move_objects on in the cheat window, and then put back your stairs
The apartment will look the same as before
Now type changeLotZoning apartmentbase in the cheat window, if you have done the correct steps then no message at all will come up
And in neighbourhood view it should show correctly how many apartments there are and the pricing.
And now you will have working apartments on a foundation each with their own private backyards.
