8 years agoThanks so much for this it really helps. And you may think I'm really silly with the question but how do I move between saves (which are various versions of towns I understood) and know which town/save I am in?
Thanks
Thanks

8 years agoHi @SandraWozna,
Not silly questions at all, SandraWozna, it's different from previous games so it's normal not knowing how it works at the beginning!
When you are selecting which game to load, you will see a picture of the last played household in that save game, as well as the date in which you saved. Also, you will see the different save game numbers, which should help you know which save game is which.
When you create a household and place it in the world, that will only happen in that save game, in that copy of the world. And every change you make in the world will only happen in the save game you are playing in. So even if at the beginning all the copies of the worlds are the same default across all save games, your changes will make each different.
When you create a household/family for the first time, a copy of it is saved in your Library. You can also save a house, family, room or lot in your Library at any point. It's similar to the family bin in The Sims 2, remember that? The items saved in your Library can be placed from the Library to the save game you are currently playing at any point.
However, please, keep in mind some things won't be saved when you save a family in the Library. For example, once you place them again, they won't remember their relationships.
Let me know if you would want some guidance on how to use the Library or you have any questions. Button is available in the top right corner of your screen.
