Animation Customization Details

If you want to disable an animation to be allowed in a brothel, simply add the DISALLOWED_FOR_BROTHEL tag to it.

NPC Brothels

If you just want an NPC to run a brothel while your Sim works at it, you simply need to add the Brothel lot trait to a lot. Travel away from the zone, then travel back to it (May need to travel more than once)
- This lot trait can be added to any lot, but there are some caveats to it.
  - The lot with the Brothel lot trait will no longer function as it did before. If it was previously a restaurant, it will no longer function as a restaurant would. If it was previously a Vet Clinic, it will again no longer function as it did. This is because the Brothel lot trait takes over and turns the lot into a brothel.
  - This lot trait has been fully tested on a Residential lot, so that may be the best lot type to put it on, but there are likely plenty of other lot types that will work.
These Brothels function pretty much the same as a Player owned brothel, except that an NPC owns it.
To take over an NPC brothel and become the manager, your Sim needs to own the lot, then they need to do the following interaction:
- SHIFT+CLICK on own Sim -> Brothel -> Take Ownership Of Business
After taking over the business, you run it the same as you would for a brothel that you bought.
To release ownership back to the NPCs do the following interaction:
- SHIFT+CLICK on own Sim -> Brothel -> Release Ownership
After doing ANY of the above interactions leave the lot (travel somewhere else), then come back!

NPC Brothel Requirements

There are a few requirements a lot must have in order for an NPC brothel to fully function.
- In NPC brothels, there are many workflows, each requiring different sets of objects on the lot.
- The number of objects on the lot indicate the number of staff members to be hired. Know however that there is a limit of no more than 12 employees at any one time, so if the brothel has hired 11 Harlots/Studs and 1 Stripper, and you place a Bar, you will not see a Bartender show up.

  Any object marked for Service (Sex/Dance) and marked as a Harlot/Stud Service spots works too. Double Beds are good ones to mark.

Service Spots

In order for Harlots, Studs, and Strippers to work, they need to have service spots marked for them to perform services at, whether it is sexual acts, pole dancing, or lap dancing.
Every brothel needs service spots to be marked before they can function (Even NPC brothels)
- To mark a spot for service:

Harlots And Studs

Harlots and Studs are just one side of Brothels. They take orders from patrons and service them as best they can.

Harlots/Stud Patrons

H/S patrons will arrive at the Brothel, check in with a host, be shown to a service spot, order service from a harlot/stud they have a sex classification preference for, pay for the service, then happily (or unhappily) leave the brothel.
After leaving the Brothel, they will give the Brothel a rating depending on their experience.
Sometimes you may see a Brothel Critic arrive. These patrons should be provided with a higher level of quality so that they may increase the popularity of your Brothel.
These patrons may arrive in groups of one or two Sims.

Player Harlot Or Stud

Services
- While working, your Sim may accept an order from a Patron. Your Sim is paid per Service depending on how well they performed.
- Various factors contribute to the amount of money earned, such as mood, skills, buffs, traits, and career level.
- Increasing the Sexperience skill of your Sim will increase the satisfaction of patrons that receive service as well as the amount of money they pay for it.
- Having any fluids on your Sim from providing service to previous patrons or having low hygiene will decrease the amount of money earned and the satisfaction of the patrons being serviced.

Player Harlot/Stud Patron

To become an Harlot/Stud patron, simply check in at a Host Station by requesting a service spot.
Once checked in and assigned a service spot. Look around the lot for a Harlot/Stud you want to request service from.
Click on them and Order For Group, after this a dialog will appear with available service types.
After service is chosen, the Harlot/Stud will come to perform that service.
Once service is complete, you may either give up your service spot (Stop being an Harlot/Stud Patron) or you may request service from another Harlot/Stud (or the same one)

Strippers

Strippers are another side of making money at Brothels. They will perform dances while earning tips on dancing poles, seduce patrons into buying services, and provide services such as Lap Dances to patrons that request it.
While dancing on a pole or giving a lap dance to patrons, Strippers will strip their clothing as they receive more tips from patrons.
Strippers will not dance forever, they will grow fatigued after dancing for some time, after which they will socialize with patrons until they are no longer fatigued.

Stripper Patrons

S Patrons will arrive at the Brothel and then choose to either watch Strippers that are dancing (and give tips to them) or hang around and socialize with strippers and other Patrons.
If these patrons are watching a stripper dance, they will give a tip to the stripper they are watching when their blue bar reaches the top.
- The blue bar increases faster the higher the Dancing skill of the stripper.
If these patrons are socializing, they will request a service from a Stripper when they are seduced enough into buying a service from a stripper.
- While they are receiving a lap dance, they will tip the stripper giving them the dance when their blue bar reaches max, depending on the Dancing skill of the stripper.

Player Stripper

Pole Dancing/Lap Dancing
- The amount of money received from patrons and how often patrons give tips is dependent on the Dancing skill of your Sim.
Services
- While socializing with Patrons, use Seduction interactions to increase the blue bar of patrons. Once it reaches max, the patron can be offered a service or they may request a service from your Sim.
- Increasing the Sexperience skill of your Sim will increase the satisfaction of patrons that receive service.
Career
- Earn promotions by increasing the skills of your Sim and accomplishing various career tasks. Your Sim may even learn a few skills along the way.

Player Stripper Patron

By default when visiting a Brothel lot, your Sim becomes a Brothel Stripper patron. (If they are not a brothel patron click on them -> Brothel -> Become Brothel Patron and let some time pass)
Being a stripper patron allows Strippers to try to seduce your Sim, they will also offer services to your Sim.
You may request service from a stripper by clicking on them -> Brothel -> Services -> Request Service Type
While receiving a lap dance, you may tip the stripper giving you the lap dance and they may strip their clothing.
