=================================================================================
Ever wonder why do the consignment store in Sunset Valley or Riverview facing at wrong side of the road?

Do you ever feel that why the lots used by some EP2 community lots like Fire Station or Junkyard are too large for its buiding?

Are you tired that each time you start a new game on Sunset Valley or Riverview, you have to move or change its angle some EP2 community lots for a better view in your neighborhood?

Yes, me too. I am so annoyed by this problem for long time, so I take a look at GameplayData package file and I find this file called AutoVenuePlacementXML. inside this file, there are entries for EP2 comm lots auto placement for each neighborhood (Sunset Valley, Riverview, Barnacle Bay, and Bridgeport (no Twinbrook because it already have EP2 comm lots itself built-in)). So I changed some of comm lots' address and rotation angle for better view (for me of course).

Only use one file, as they conflict each other.


It took many hours for me to testing this through a lot of trial & error. In the end, I so satified with the result. So I hope you guys like it too.
