17,000 vehicles removed?

Hi there. Firstly many thanks for the mod, it's made a pretty big difference for making the game playable for me.

Just wanted to ask if I should be worried that so many vehicles get removed upon cleanup? The only other thing I see in the log is a few TV's shut off, like maybe 5.

Also, should I enable Overwatch for the active lot or leave settings at default?

Well regardless if this is normal, I just want to report that this mod is working wonders for my game. Granted that is a relative term as the game still runs quite poorly. But ever since installing Overwatch I can actually play the game longer than 10 minutes without it turning to shit.

For what its worth, these are the cleanup numbers fro the first three nights:
14,000 vehicles removed
17,000 vehicles removed
15,000 vehicles removed

I'm relieved that this number didn't increase exponentially like I thought it would. Not sure why so many vehicle remnants but this seems to be the main cause of my performance issue. For that I am very grateful. Thank so much for this awesome mod, it literally saved the game for me!

Hi!

Try adding ErrorTrap and Traffic to the game, and also check out this thread. ;)

It may help quite a lot to install Traffic and set Routing > Allow Performance Career Limos to False. You can also set Always Use Taxis for Inactives Lacking Vehicles to True if you don't want random cars being purchased and purged at all.

Hey puzzlezaddict, Just got done down downloading the Traffic mod and Errortrap as per the recommendations. Will plug it in and see how it works. Overwatch by itself has made a tremendous difference. I'll be stoked if this makes it any better.

Appreciate the help!

Well unfortunately Traffic didn't help at all no matter which options I tried. Very interesting that the vehicle records tend to pile up a lot quicker if the game is left out of focus for any length of time. I was alt-tabbed for about an hour and came back to see 59,000 new vehicle records needing removal.

Game is pretty much unplayable over 20,000 so I just set it to clean vehicles every hour.
