How to place ponds on home lots?
Hi. I used to have all this written down but after the fire...well, that's gone. I can't remember what all you have to do to place a pond on your home lot. Thanks so much in advance.

Are you talking about a fishing pond, or just a pond? I took notes from the player who posted how to create fishing ponds. Here it is:
1. Open Cheat Window
2. Enter 'bb.movesobject on' and 'bb.showhiddenobjects
3. Start with creating a pool with irregular shape
4. Change pool edge to one that's having a natural color like brown
5. Add matching terrain paint around pool to give a natural look
6. Change walls and floors to ones with stones. ('My floor is from debug.')
7. Add pool items like ladders or diving boards. Adding bubbles and fog emitters creates a nice mist above the pool and bubbles inside
8. Add plants and rocks around pool to cover up some edges. Debug has some nice items, like logs and create new shrubs by using basement space
9. Play test to see if everything works
10. Add more greenery
11. Adding fishing signs will spawn fish. Keep switching to play mode, if you build a smaller pond or else the fish will jump out of the ground.
Hope this will do it for you. Glad you survived the fire. Wow. Take care!
