[ROM] [ECO] The Magic Realm HQ Neighborhood is Industrial

Product: The Sims 4
Platform:Mac
Which language are you playing the game in? English
How often does the bug occur? Every time (100%)
What is your current game version number? 1.81.72.1230
What expansions, game packs, and stuff packs do you have installed? All
Steps: How can we find the bug ourselves? Spend time in The Magic Realm HQ neighborhood.
What happens when the bug occurs? It quickly becomes Industrial.
What do you expect to see? I expect that it remain Neutral.
Have you installed any customization with the game, e.g. Custom Content or Mods? Not now. I've removed them.
Did this issue appear after a specific patch or change you made to your system? Neutral/Not Sure 

The Magic Realm neighborhood should not be effected by the Eco Living system or the RoM objects and wall coverings should not have any EL ratings. All those caldrons (seven), fireplaces (two), plus the RoM brick wall covering (Industrial 2) in the default HQ build cause that neighborhood  to very quickly become Industrial. Short of removing all those items by using the build cheat, there is really no way for a player to remedy this.

  • Just had this happen to me as well. I'm going to use the bb.enablefreebuild cheat which unlocks build mode for you to add some helpful eco items to the lot. (I figured this out with the university pack. You can't use build mode in the dorms unless you use this cheat.)

    I added two large wind turbines and some solar panels for the roof. Going to add some planter boxes as well for some magic seeds etc. Also just added some cool cc now to the interior! Will let you know how that works. 

    EDIT:  I placed the wind turbines, solar panels, and some planters to help boost the footprint. There should be enough plants and trees on the lot but I added just a couple more. You have to stay and hangout on the lot for the footprint to get to neutral otherwise it will reset when you leave. Once I got it back to neutral I saved the game and it was fine when I returned. Again if you want it to be green you will have to hangout on the lot until it reaches the eco footprint you want. Hope this helps!

    This happened to me also.  I made the edits you suggested and it worked.  On my way to a green lot!
