I gave up on that save and Sunset Valley. I bought Lunar Lakes and have started a game there, and have gotten Traveller, Mover and Portrait. I already have MC and SP, and O/W and Error Trap. I wonder if I got the right one, @Turjan .
Anyway, my sim has gone to university and when she arrived at the town view, only the houses were available, none of the vacant lots, and the houses were pretty cheap, even the large one's. The absence of the vacant lots is not normal, but I can't remember how much the larger houses were to know what is normal for those. I looked at the Traveller and Mover, Traveller, @Coriandre, has 'treat as vacation' yes. I switched it to no but then the into the furture portal landed, and going into build or buy brings up lot info of simolean worth, not rent. I can't remember if the latter is normal or not. I can't see anything in Mover that sounds like it's affecting it. Also, the diner at the university is ownable - that's not normal.
Have I been given bad advice about getting Traveller? It feels like my sim is cheating by living in the large house straight off the bat. Is this why when I started at Lunar Lakes, the vacant lots weren't showing up there? I had to go into town edit and change the lot type of them all to ownable, which put a flag on them like on vacation, so then I tried back to regular and then they were available normal. I don't like it.
What's going on and how do I fix it? What settings do I need to put in Traveller or Mover to make the worlds normal, just better for avoiding errors and bugs? Or should I remove them entirely? I got mover because I'm sick of having full house dramas.
Luckily I haven't gone very far into it and can start again with the new sim I created for it, because a copy of her is in the sim bin, and I haven't built anything on the lot in LL yet.
