Barrier rope

A barrier rope, or velvet rope, is an object in The Sims: Superstar, The Sims 2: Nightlife, The Sims 3: Late Night, The Sims 4 and The Sims 4: Get Famous.
==The Sims: Superstar==
Velvet ropes were first introduced in The Sims: Superstar. They served primarily as decorations, but could function as fences. If two segments were placed adjacent to each other, a rope would automatically be formed to link the two posts together, allowing a "chain" to be formed.
==The Sims 2: Nightlife==
The Relvet Vope Fence was introduced in The Sims 2: Nightlife as a fence in build mode. It functioned similarly to the one in The Sims: Superstar, except that it occupied the edges of the tile rather than the center. Other than that, it functions similarly to every other fence in the game.
==The Sims 3: Late Night==
Barrier ropes in The Sims 3: Late Night served more functions than the ropes in previous games. Barrier ropes are used to restrict Sims from a room or band venue. When placed on a community lot, a barrier rope summons a bouncer who protects against Sims attempting to trespass.
The Small Barrier Rope and Large Barrier Rope are in the community objects section in build mode. To set permissions, enter build mode and hold while left-clicking on the rope. Setting the Set Access Level option to "Limited" allows the player to customize the access restrictions. The player can customize the celebrity level, occult option, or bribe amount (§25, §50, or §100) controlling the demographic that can enter the door.
The available occult limitations are mummies, SimBots, vampires, unicorns, fairies, witches, PlantSims, mermaids, and time travelers, as well as 4 blank options.
==The Sims 3 Store==
===Barrier to Entry Turnstile for Gates===
The Barrier to Entry Turnstile for Gates is sold as part of the Le Cinema Plumbob set from The Sims 3 Store. While strictly speaking not rope-based, it features the same entrance-limiting abilities as what the Late Night barrier ropes have, and even adds new limiters, including fully functional options for all occults, the ability to exclude specific occults, to limit by gender and/or age, to the controlled household/Sim, and to ticket machine ticket buyers.
===Barrier to Entry Turnstile for Walls===
Works the same as the gate version, but is designed to be placed onto walls.
==The Sims 4==
In The Sims 4, The Velvet Rope is a fence with no special functions. However, a gate can be attached to it, which can be locked to restrict access to an area.
