Mod for Buying Multiple Lotto Tickets?

[Sonshine]

Hi, as the title suggests, I'm wondering if there is a mod that enables me to buy multiple lotto tickets. It's driving me nuts to have my sim walk in and out and in and out to buy a single ticket at a time.

Also, EA must have fixed the system b/c when ITF first came out, my sims would get a cool mil from a few tickets bought. Now, if my sim buys 12+ (I don't clearly remember how many), he only got about 300k.  I was kind of hoping for a mil b/c he came to the future w/almost 2 mil and then he bought and decorated a house and now he's way down. Thanks!

How much you get is linked to your sims Advanced Technology. The higher the skill, the more you get. I've gotten between 50k and 1.5 mill depending on skill. Its weird that you only get 300k with all those tickets.

I've never bothered to buy more than one ticket at a time, normally only do the lottery hoopla once for the statue. I don't know of a mod that will do what you want, unfortunately.

Is the lotto ticket feature for the residents of the "past" only? I tried buying a couple of tickets w/a Oasis resident that I moved in and I kept getting the msg of "no pertinent information." This is regardless of how many tickets I bought!

As far as know, it is only possible for residents of the home worlds to buy tickets. Maybe the game assumes they already know the numbers, and therefore won't allow them to buy tickets? Just a theory... I haven't tried to take sims from Oasis back to the neighourhood with me, so don't know how that would work. I've only brought back bots from the future, because I'm lazy and want a cleaning/fixing slave.

The only advice I can offer is get your Advanced tech skill as high as possible or maxed, then search the records + go back and buy ticket. I got 1.5 mill without even max Adv. tech. as far as I remember. Haven't played that save in a long time.

LOL about your "slave!"  As for bringing back residents to the home world, I don't think that is possible. Whenever I click on the time interface thing, I can only  have one sim. My next test is to bring one of his girlfriends back to the home world b/c she wants to be a doctor. To do that though, I have to split him off of his family into his own home b/c his home family is full. I still say though, that EA must have tweaked this or changed it in some way, b/c when ITF first came out and I took a sim to Oasis and bought a ticket, one sim won a mil and another sim won 3 mil in spite of the fact that they had 0 AT! I'll check it out again though, when he has maxed his AT.
