	After a successful roll, the game chooses uniformly from all eligible temporary-stop rooms on that segment (such as Vending Machines and Washrooms). A Vending Machine always accepts the visit once chosen, so if ''N'' eligible rooms lie on the route, the chance that a particular Vending Machine receives the stop is the distance-based chance divided by ''N''. Its price does not change this chance. A visiting sim remains for a random 5–15 simulation minutes, then continues its original trip.

			== Strategy ==
			Place Vending Machines along long, busy horizontal routes where sims pass their entrance. They compete with other eligible temporary-stop rooms on the same walking segment, so avoid clustering too many of them together. Keep inventory stocked: an empty machine closes and cannot receive temporary-stop visits.

			== Temporary stops ==
			A Vending Machine can be an impromptu stop for a sim walking past it. The game makes one temporary-stop roll for each horizontal walking segment; a machine is eligible only when it is constructed, open for business, and its entrance lies strictly between the segment's start and end points. Sims with a room assignment, no destination, an existing temporary stop, or an active disaster do not make this roll.

			The roll is based on the horizontal distance ''d'' travelled: <code>1 - (1 - r)^(d / 100)</code>, where ''r'' depends on economy difficulty. It is 10% per 100 tiles on Easy, 7.5% on Normal, and 5% on Hard.

			{\| class="wikitable"
			! Horizontal distance
			! Easy
			! Normal

			\|-
			\| 10 tiles \|\| 1.05% \|\| 0.78% \|\| 0.51%
			\|-
			\| 50 tiles \|\| 5.13% \|\| 3.82% \|\| 2.53%

			\| 100 tiles \|\| 10% \|\| 7.5% \|\| 5%

A Vending Machine always accepts the visit once chosen, so if ''N'' eligible rooms lie on the route, the chance that a particular Vending Machine receives the stop is the distance-based chance divided by ''N''.
