There are some plants that jut out into the gondola canals–notably on the front left side, but there are several other places throughout the ride where decorative shrubs and flowers overhung the canals. I removed those, and the gondola ride went smooth as butter with no further issues. Tested it on my vanilla brand-new game and on my ongoing current game and both times the fixed lot worked fine. I didn’t need to remove plants that were a level above the ride (like set up on foundations rather than on the exact same height level as the canals are). Kinda weird that EA didn’t notice that, but there we are. I’m just glad my gondola ride works now! That was seriously bothering me given the cost of that set.

After seeing reviews of this marvelous set I can’t wait to try it myself. I think I’m going to place it in Monte Vista but you can really put it anywhere. Eg place it in Roaring Heights on that big 64×64 lot close to the beach. It would be beautiful seeing the ocean in the background as your sims are riding the gondelas in the venue. Sunlit Tides would be another beautiful place to put it.

If sims won’t woohoo it’s cause you have to wait for them to stop under the tunnels.

If sims are teleporting make sure all their needs are maxed out.

If sims are going invisible try resetting them and try again.

If sims jerk while their riding the gondela this is oviously the same issue that the tractor rides had but it’s not a game killing glitch. A lot of youtubers are reporting this but I’m use to it with the tractor.

If there is lag it’s because this lot is huge.
