I'm glad to hear I'm not the only one laughing like that at some of the things in this game. Now I don't feel quite so odd. LOL

Anyway i think you will be okay with just 2 - just save you progress before you do any of lot placing so you don't lose the progress and keep that save on your desktop then move on to adding the lot. Also I have discovered if you place lots on a place where there was already a bigger lot previously, they seem to create no problems. In SS there is an big empty lot near the shoreline - that I tested by deleting and then adding in 5 of the 20 X 25 lots in it's place and added 5 family sized trailers for more living room and I had already added 3 20 x 30 lots and several 10 x 10 for subways and had no breakage what so ever. But i Save, move out the file, add the lot and play the world a sims day to make sure with each lot. That way I can back up at any spot to where it still works.
Oh, I have tons of redundant backups. Always. I make too many mistakes to not keep multiple backups, even when I'm not taking any risks. And when I am doing something risky, I need even more. I'm a Backup Queen. LOL
I think, though, that I need clarification of what you mean by routing failure. Is that something that can be tested after each lot placement?
And if routing failure is not found after testing each lot placement, immediately, is this something that can then be assumed as safe? Or does it hide, just so it can slap you silly when you aren't looking?
I would have no problem with testing for routing failure with each lot I placed. Of course that begs the question: How do I test for routing failure, when it comes to lots? What am I looking for, and how many ways can routing fail? Do I need to test just simmies, or also playable critters? Cars?
I have no CAW background, so I'm a bit unclear with what you mean. If you tell me exactly how to go about it, I can usually follow instructions without too much hand holding.
