May We Please Have a Way to Bypass CAS?
I love CAS, but when I wish to start a new save strictly to build, I really hate having to go through CAS. It would be very useful, if we could simply toggle something to allow us to bypass the CAS pr...

I love this new CAS, I would never ever want to remove it. But there are times when I need a new save to build on a lot that is otherwise occupied. Building takes time, at least for me, because I'm rather fussy, and wasting time creating a place-holder Sim is annoying.
I LOVE this new CAS it's so much better than we've had before. I am not advocating to remove it at all. I just would like an option to bypass it when I need to start a new save to be able to build on a lot that is otherwise occupied in the save I'm playing. Point in case. My celebrity Sim suffered a break-in from his Obsessed Fans and felt threatened when they left their customary tiered cake and a plate of Ambrosia in his eldest child's room, the boy was still a Toddler. I didn't wish to destroy the lot to start again, but I needed the very same size lot to make sure what I was going to build would fit and he could keep his Chicken Coop, his garden and his swimming pool. And his Toddler children's gym.
Since all the lots appear to be occupied in this months' old save already, my option was to start a new save, which I intend to make my "Build Save'. Building for me anyway, takes some time. I am a bit of a perfectionist and it was my idea to build the new lot and then go back and do the floor and wall treatments. It took the rest of the afternoon, plus a couple of more hours the next day. While I liked how it turned out in looks, it proved a bit unplayable. I use the Sims3 cameral and I was getting the bouncy, bouncy, bouncy thing going on, ad nauseum. (Would that there was a way to fix or at least prevent this.) At any rate, I was so unhappy with it, I decided to build another lot entirely.) Going through CAS even just randomizing the Sim, Traits, name, et al, then placing them somewhere and saving it, takes up precious build time. I was anxious to get back to my main save. My Global Superstar Rock Star was up for yet another Starlight Accolade. All those moments in CAS was wasted time for me.
I just want a way to build, especially under the above circumstances, without having to waste those few minutes getting to the neighborhood I wanted and get right to building.
