I would love nothing more than to make an at-home version of the ice cream truck. All i see in the object cloner is the food truck.



Any help finding the ice cream truck?

Most vehicles for the game all start with "car" in its name.

There's also a Search feature under Tools. ;)

I've actually been experimenting with the Ice Cream truck myself also recently.

Other than converting one into a purchasable and driveable vehicle, i've also (like yourself) looked into the possibility of placing the Ice Cream Truck (in its original form where you can purchase Ice Cream) on Residential Lots in a constant, fixed location in addition to Community Lots.

I found that this can be achieved (the result being the truck will be static and stay in the one constant location you place it) but a problem I found is that when placed on Residential Lots, immediately after placement (even in Build/Buy mode), you cannot move/drag the truck or delete it without using TestingCheats. I think this is due to the fact that the Ice Cream Truck references a specific script to act as an Ice Cream which is constantly in use on Community Lots, hence why you "cannot delete this item that is in use" on Residential Lots. In my testing, this issue does NOT apply when you place Ice Cream Trucks on Community Lots. They remain static, but can be dragged in Build/Buy (not in Live View, despite changing the flags for LiveDraggingEnabled to true) and also deleted in Build/Buy mode when placed on Community Lots, even if you place a massive number of Ice Cream Trucks on the one Lot.

Things might be different in your case, but It's just something I thought i'd let you know in advance (just in case if you didn't discover for yourself already).

You:
-Clone the truck
-Change its scriptclass to the basgametruck
-Update/change category flags

You can do do this with all NPC cars.
There is even a script for vehicles with sirenes(Sims3.Gameplay.Objects.Vehicles.CarPoliceOwnable)

If you can not find the truck you might have to update the link to the EP gamefolder.

Forgive me, but I successfully changed the script class, but I cannot buy ice cream from the truck. it says "No Interactions Available."

no, ofcourse not....you changed its script into a buyable car, it acts as a normal car now.
Guess i misunderstood and thought you wanted it as drivable vehicle.

I just want it to not disappear after a certain time. Because it thinks it needs to do it route.
