To edit or create a new dorm you will have to use a cheat code.<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"text-decoration: underline;font-size: 20px\"><strong>Edit Existing Dorm<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n<p>Enter the lot you want to edit and open the cheat screen (control-shift-C) and type in <b>boolprop dormspecifictools disabled false<\/b>. This will allow you to use the build and buy modes.<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"text-decoration: underline;font-size: 20px\"><strong>Make a New Dorm<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n<p>Create a new blank residential lot in your university neighbourhood. Don&#8217;t start with a community lot as your dorm will not function correctly without a mailbox. You can then change it to community to add community items if you want, and then to a dorm to finish. Then build your dorm &#8211; make sure you include the dorm doors and the right stove, fire sprinklers, counter tops, trash cans and all of the other student necessities:<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/simfansuk.com\/wp\/wp-content\/uploads\/formidable\/118\/LadyAngel\/1-7.jpg\" rel=\"gallery.posts\" data-lbwps-width=\"700\" data-lbwps-height=\"324\" data-lbwps-srcsmall=\"https:\/\/simfansuk.com\/wp\/wp-content\/uploads\/formidable\/118\/LadyAngel\/1-7.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" id=\"ncode_imageresizer_container_1\" class=\"tcattdimgresizer\" src=\"https:\/\/simfansuk.com\/wp\/wp-content\/uploads\/formidable\/118\/LadyAngel\/1-7.jpg\" width=\"300\" height=\"138\" border=\"0\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/simfansuk.com\/wp\/wp-content\/uploads\/formidable\/118\/LadyAngel\/2-5.jpg\" rel=\"gallery.posts\" data-lbwps-width=\"700\" data-lbwps-height=\"333\" data-lbwps-srcsmall=\"https:\/\/simfansuk.com\/wp\/wp-content\/uploads\/formidable\/118\/LadyAngel\/2-5.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" id=\"ncode_imageresizer_container_2\" class=\"tcattdimgresizer\" src=\"https:\/\/simfansuk.com\/wp\/wp-content\/uploads\/formidable\/118\/LadyAngel\/2-5.jpg\" width=\"300\" height=\"142\" border=\"0\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/simfansuk.com\/wp\/wp-content\/uploads\/formidable\/118\/LadyAngel\/3-5.jpg\" rel=\"gallery.posts\" data-lbwps-width=\"700\" data-lbwps-height=\"291\" data-lbwps-srcsmall=\"https:\/\/simfansuk.com\/wp\/wp-content\/uploads\/formidable\/118\/LadyAngel\/3-5.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" id=\"ncode_imageresizer_container_3\" class=\"tcattdimgresizer\" src=\"https:\/\/simfansuk.com\/wp\/wp-content\/uploads\/formidable\/118\/LadyAngel\/3-5.jpg\" width=\"300\" height=\"124\" border=\"0\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>When you are done, open up the cheat window (by holding down the CTRL, SHIFT, C keys) and type it this cheat (and it&#8217;s not case-sensitive):<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>changeLotZoning dorm<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>Or:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>changeLotZoning greek<\/li>\n<li>changeLotZoning secret society<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>Save your lot and go back to the neighborhood.
