Before you start
- Room along a wall or an aisle end
- Enough money for the size you actually need
- Chilled stock on the way
Steps
- Choose the size the aisle can take before you choose the one you like.
the chillers are named in sizes, a mini, a medium and a double fridge, and a single, a double and a triple freezer - Put chilled goods in the chiller rather than on an ordinary shelf.
the chiller has display slots of its own, one named for a fridge and one for a freezer (Display Slot (Fridge), Display Slot (Freezer)) - Match the chiller's colour to the furniture around it.
each size is named again in twelve colourways, from dune to viola - Keep the freezer for what is actually frozen and the fridge for the rest.
the freezers are named as their own line, a single, a double and a triple - Do not expect a wall finish to repaint the chiller: its surfaces are its own.
the fridge has a body sheet, a normal map and an emissive sheet, with a trim sheet beside them
Common mistakes
- Buying the biggest freezer and then finding no aisle wide enough for it.
- Treating the chiller as decoration instead of as where the chilled goods go.
- Leaving one grey chiller among colour-matched furniture.
- Putting frozen goods in a fridge because the two look similar from the front.
