Sims not engaging in autonomous sex in strip club

[mobiusstrip88]

I was trying to make a combined sex/strip club using Wicked Whims. I built several dance floors, as well as lots of private and public rooms for sex. I looked at and turned up every setting for autonomy I could find. I gave it the hypersexual and romantic traits. At best I would get 1 male going solo in a provided private room every couple of days. I thought maybe my mods were broken, but as soon as I went to another location, ALL the sims there started fucking like bunnies. It seems autonomous sex works, just not in my strip club. I filled each room with "sex allowed" and "Nudity allowed" signs, which doesnt help. Is it possibly the "generic" location setting? I have allowed all locations for autonomy so that SHOLDNT matter, but it is all I can think of.

Strip clubs are very special in a number of ways, including how sex autonomy is exremely low compared to all other lot types.

 

If you want to set up a sex club, there are two ways to go:

 

(1) Get Nisa's Wicked Pervs (https://www.loverslab.com/files/file/5002-nisa’s-wicked-perversions/ ) and register your strip club dancers as prostitutes. There's an interaction on the phone for that or you can bring up the console (Ctrl+Shift+C) and turn any Sim into a prostitute by typing 

nisa.slutify first_name last_name

replacing "first_name" and "last_name" with the actual Sim's first and last name, obviously, and using quotes for names with whitespace characters, e.g. "van Buren".

This will allow your club dancers to earn some additional money by providing prostitute services to the club's visitors. Due to some issues with how this was oiginally done, it is now limited to a maximum of two prostitutes active at the same time, however.

 

(2) Get Wicked Pervs and also LittleMsSam's More Buyable Venues (https://www.curseforge.com/sims4/mods/more-buyable-venues-and-new-venue-types ), allowing you to own a nightclub or bar (I would suggest the owner household to provide a Sim or two for tending the bar and a music box or overhead speaker instead of a DJ station). Then simply set up the rest of the Sims from the owner household as prostitutes and take them to the club to do their thing, e.g. by putting them all into a club that focuses on flirty actions (also allows you to take all of them there at once with a single click, by starting a club gathering).

You can also add non-household prostitute Sims to the club, of course, but I've found that these don't always get paid and sometimes "give it away for free" despite what the prostitution system usually enforces in terms of WW sex. On the positive side, there's no limit on how many prostitute Sims can be active at the same time in a night club or bar, so you might see way more sex this way (and you can always have one of your Sims dance on a pole through regular WW solo action, although they won't get money thrown at them).

 

Personally, I have both types of sex clubs in my game and I'd say that strip clubs over more variety in terms of what happens, while "purpose-built" night clubs have more sex happening and are way more likely to see threesomes or solo action from Sims watching ongoing sex.
