Question about Storage Chests and Vaults
« on: January 29, 2021, 03:27:04 PM »
Since I don't have a sim rich enough to just buy them all and find out, does anyone know if there is storage that doesn't link up to all the others?  Something that can be used to sort objects rather than throw them all into one huge mess?  Oh, and same applies for bookcases.  In Sims 3 I used different WA chests to sort my stuff, but now I can't.

Most storage chests share an inventory. One exception is ICYA-Chest from Discover University. Each ICYA-Chest tracks it's own inventory. In addition I believe it can be added to a Sims own inventory but it was bugged when doing so. I think they fixed it but I am not sure. @MaryMary sorry about the late reply but I had to look it up as I knew it existed but the name escaped me. Also welcome to the forum.

The cheapest storage chest is the $65 "Sticky Storage Chest, which comes with the Eco Living expansion pack.
It looks rather like a cardboard box and does not share its inventory with other storage chests.

Like the ICYA storage chest ($130) mentioned by scoed, you can place items in a Sticky Storage Chest then place it inside a sim's personal inventory. Very handy!
It holds a wider variety of items than the The Ornate Beauty and Buyer Beware storage chests ($240 each).

Happy simming!

@oshizu Thanks, I forgot all about the sticky storage chest. For new players or ones who just don't buy every last pack like me I wish there was a base game option, but as far as I know there just isn't.

Thank you so much for the information!  And especially thank you for specifying which download includes the item.  Luckily I have both Uni and Eco.
