Now only the most experienced players can notice the problem, before it's too late to roll back the save.
I did not experience this terrible corruption yet because I am extremely careful since the Release of For Rent. I must admit that I got very paranoid about lot corruption this year. It causes so much anxiety for me to the extend that it is not healthy anymore.
I would be thankful if someone could - in a few words - write down the warning signs of a coming game corruption, so I and others can notize it early enought to roll a save back before the big corruption breaks out.
Thank you.
What is the size of your current save file? For me, 130,000 KB is when the corruption starts. That is Rent DLC off or on. I can basically play the game normally if the save file is 120K to around 125K KB. I hear some people can play up to 140,000 KB before corruption starts.
Once I notice that my save file has reach 130K, I have to start deleting some lots. First is the Rental Residential as those lots take the most memory, then I start with the big lots like 40X40 and up.
For some reason, on the new Life and Death DLC, I started playing the quests and Reaper Career, the memory started to sky rocket up and starting to corrupt my lots in Willow Creek and New Crest. That's when I reload and start deleting lots. It really sucks but that's the only way I can play the game.

Thank you for your reply. So very kind of you. I'm so sorry that you have experienced the game corruption. ☹️
My current save file is 59K KB, so compared to the sizes you mentioned it is on the smaller side. About a year ago it was about 160K KB big, but since then I deleted a lot of builds from all across the worlds just to be safe (I have all the worlds except for Ravenwood). I've never placed or used any Residential Rental lot, because I still don't trust them. I hope that the ones that came by default with For Rent are not causing any issue as long as I don't touch them.
