I hate peaking under the stalls or knocking doors to figure it out. The answer is so simple.

When I frequented small cafés before the epidemic lockdown, it was typical in San Francisco to get frequent impatient door-knockers.

Part of the problem is the lack of publicly available restroom facilities. Shopping malls often might have two restroom pairs, usually at the food court and by the movie theater, and then one each at thr major department stores, typically hidden by the changing rooms.

I cannot say how this compares to other towns or other nations, but designing public lots in The Sims 2, I quickly learned to make sure there were facilities a short walk from everywhere. (Also skip the sinks and install showers, since sims dress and undress with a quick spin)

I've never played The Sims. Do they have bidets?

[–] [email protected] 2 points 1 year ago

I don't know. The Sims 2 was the last of the series by Maxis rather than by the eldritch maw of post-Origin EA lurking in the chaos void

There may have been placeable bidets that weren't useable. That said, it wouldn't be too difficult to mod one together so that a sim sits down on it (as per toilet objects) and it increases hygiene.

I did like that divicrats (floor threshold dividers) were regarded as room separators for matters of privacy and environment wheb I wanted a relaxed household where everyone poops and dresses in the open.
