Are leaves remaining on the ground all year a well-known EA oversight/bug?

Post by Simphobic » November 15th, 2023, 4:08 am

I know tempest has a setting to remove leaves once winter arrives which I’m super thankful as in my games. Since before this mod my Lots were riddled with leaf piles all year.

is this a well-known EA oversight/bug that tempest fixes? Cause I feel like I dont see people mentioning this issue a lot considering how annoying it was for me.

i know there is a mod: https://modthesims.info/d/512093/faster ... asons.html which changes an xml that supposedly governs how much of leaves disappear. But even with this mod my lots were filled with leaves.

hence, my question since it seems not a lot of people had the same issue in the comments of that mod except like 1.

Indeed it is, that's why the tempest setting exists. :)

damn thats good to know then. Tempest stays in my game for sure!!

surprised not more people talk about this bug. The leaves on the ground all year round was so annoying for me personally. Yet I dont hear complaining about it and seasons is probably the most popular pack too.

thanks for tempest!

As Tempest has this feature since a long time, most people have this mod since many years.

Indeed there's a lot these mods are doing that people have gotten comfortable with and forgotten or just aren't aware of. I'm seeing a lot of replication of stuff we already do over here in newer mods because of that.
