Swim in a pond
Swimming in ponds would be amazing, I hate the look of pools.. also, can we please get a darn spiral staircase?!?

@RaceTheRain swimming in ponds would be great.
In the meantime you can create a pool with the pool tool in a kind of pond shape and use the water styles to make it look like a pond. I use the grass flooring for the bottom of it and use the cheat bb.moveobjects on to place rocks and plants around the edge to hide it. I usually add a few floating lights and lily pads too. I'm really into waterfall effects lately too by using the same cheat to hide fountain emitters under stacks of rocks.
So that's how I make a "swimmable" pond. But I'd like all water to be swimmable if it's deep enough. I've heard of a mod for it for PC players but I'm on console.
Also spiral staircases have been asked for a lot and have definitely been mentioned to devs. So fingers crossed.🤞
Spiral staircases would be great! 🙂 Many simmers would enjoy having them in their builds.
I would love to have spiral stairs and curved stairs that can be used to make stairwells around the edges of circular rooms like those inside towers or lighthouses. It would be lovely to be able to make grand sweeping staircases for ballrooms, castles or celebrity homes etc.
re swimming in the pond, I also have used the terrain tools and moo cheat to make a pool that looks more like a pond and in one instance it was almost completely surrounded by a pond so that it looked like a fishing pond that was swimmable and had a diving platform disguised by some rocks and plants.
- @OzSimsFamily I've literally just been looking at how to do that with a pond around a pool. I'm trying it out today!
