Is there a Retuner way to stop Emit Relevart from hogging up the start of my game?

No one knows everything this mod can do. Did you know you can tune the size of your sims nostrils with this mod? I'm kidding.

Or a mod? Whatever. I don't mind Into the Future, and I like Oasis Landing and all of the Future build and buy stuff, so I don't want to delete the EP. But I can buy a portal whenever I want it, and I hate the ten or fifteen minute time-suck at the beginning of every game where you are forced to inspect the portal that appears and go through the same nonsense every time with Emit and just wait and wait for him to leave as he's scanning your home before you can deactivate the portal, put it into your inventory and get on with your Sims' lives. Thanks!

Edit: if not, would it be safe (stable for my game/ saves) to just go into build and buy and smash the portal with the sledgehammer and then just buy a portal when I'm ready to deal with ITF? Or maybe I wouldn't be able to smash it because it's "in use"? Can I "delete object" on it at all and/ or safely? Thanks again.

Hi!

You can use my mod to suppress portal spawning at the startup of a new game. Or, as far as I remember, after the portal is spawned, it is not used until you decide to inspect it. Before it is activated you can safely sell/delete it.

yes you can simply delete it without any action and the future guy also does not show up so soon :)

Oh and didn't know that you make new mods besides sims control. Great :cool:

Nah, it's my first mod, posted on MTS back in early 2022. :)

Thanks so much to both of you. :) Edit: I thought you had to 'inspect portal' and then go through all of the other nonsense before you could get rid of it in a safe, non-game-corrupting way. Thanks again.

I always delete the one that spawns on my lot, and then edit town and place one on the town hall. It makes more sense to me to have travellers spawn there instead of my home lot.
