Bug Fixes for ‘For Rent’
The Maxis team has been hard at work addressing some finicky flaws, and they’ve got four fantastic fixes for the For Rent expansion:
1. Changing out Build Mode:
Drawing, deleting, and auto-filling wallpaper in Residential Rentals will no longer cause Build Mode slowdown.
2. Changing out Evil Landlords:
Taka Soi premade lot rents won’t skyrocket into the billions, keeping things civil. Incorrect price UI in existing saves? It’ll sort itself out by the next bills cycle.
3. Mellowing out water usage:
Your Sims will no longer obsessively shower when hygiene is not low. Because, really, you’re clean already, Sim. Stop!
4. FreeRealEstate On cheat is back:
Cheaters, rejoice! The FreeRealEstate On cheat is back in action, so go ahead and mellow out.
