Re: Showering for a long time! (2 Sim hours)
@MzMelonz I just did some testing it in my game with an expensive shower (Hygiene rating 6) and it took my Sim slightly less time than you are seeing in your game, but still a very long time. That long shower time is a real time killer when trying to get a Sim ready for work or school in the morning!
- With the unmodified shower it took my Sim about 70 game-minutes to go from their hygiene motive being in the red to fully clean.
- After my Sim installed the "Upgrade the water flow regulator" upgrade the same Sim took about 30 game-minutes to go from red to fully clean.
- After installing a second upgrade, the "Install pulsating massage jets" upgrade, the same Sim only took about 10 game-minutes to go from red to fully clean.
These are the two upgrades I always install for all stand-up showers in my game. Fortunately, Sims do not need a very high Handiness score to install these two upgrades and the parts are not all that expensive. I generally do not install any of the Eco Lifestyle upgrades unless I'm working on a NAP compliance or if I'm trying to turn a neighborhood Eco footprint to green. None of those other upgrades seem to affect the amount of time it takes to get a Sim fully clean, though they will cut down on an energy/water bill.
