They did announce it here: Community Concerns with Save File Issues - October 2025 Update | EA Forums - 12690410 However, it should also have been in the patch notes and wasn't, which is frustrating.
Thank you for sharing this.
This forum post has almost 300 views in six days: clearly people are wondering what happened to the cheat. I also had made a forum post about this issue that seems to have strangely disappeared.
I don't think they should have removed the cheat altogether, that materially alters the game. Instead, a reduction in maximum number of units per lot (instead of 99, but obviously much greater than 6) could have been an option. Some lots have 7+ units and now we can't increase it without mods (which I want to avoid).
