...because the Sulani townies are now invading my save!I kinda knew this was too good to be true; when you start doing things in Sulani, only Sulani townies will generate, and since the game utilizes the same sims in the pool to generate who is spawned at lots outside Sulani, I got new townies with names I can barely pronounce in my other worlds too! My mailman and several bartenders are already Sulanese (Sulanesian?) and many of my walkby's in other worlds are also Sulani townies as well, slowly replacing the CL townies that used to fill my saves. Can we just tone down the constant townie generation altogether please?Please tell me I'm not the only one that is starting to notice this...

Nope, Sulani citizen's can and will pop up in the other worlds. (Haven't seen my actual locals that reside in Sulani though, but the townie spawns have been popping up.)Though at least for Sulani I haven't seen ANY sims from the other worlds there less I have a specific lot type for them to visit or one of the vampires pop up at night time.On the plus side, least their clothing choices are a lot better picked.

I'm getting this too after visiting Sulani. My sim lives in Strangerville but now its even stranger with all the islander's :). Mail person, kids friends at school everywhere I go now. I hire any service and its an Islander filling that role. Don't like it at all. I want a mix of all the sims not just one taking over.

Yeah, there is no middle ground here. Start in Strangerville, there will be military and science sims all over the place. Start in Sulani, islanders will swarm the world. And we're seeing single child households pop up because of the childrens/family festival in Sulani. Start in anywhere except those 2 places, sims with CL names will take over everything."LadyKyn;c-17143776" wrote:......On the plus side, least their clothing choices are a lot better picked.At least most, if not all, of their clothes match! :D Doesn't fit too well in Windenburg or Willow Creek, though. :p

I do agree with you there that their clothes at least better match the townies that generate lol! :D I too also have parentless child households generated as well, which presents new problems.

@kalaksed Interesting you mentioned that the only non-Sulani walkbys you had happened to be aliens; the only non-native walkby's I had happened were mainly aliens as well...hmmI'd expect more alien walkby's in Strangerville than Sulani honestly...

Move over San Myshuno townies...

I'd like all EP and GP populations to be less present in other worlds too :/ Right now it's constant Hawaiian party everywhere.

When they introduce diversity they should add tag to townies like Asian, African or Sulanesian and only sim with either of this tag can use their own preset face skin color and name, one thing i noticed in the sims 4 is that game tend to overuse this when before island living release almost all townies are japanese/indian or middle eastern in name only. It isnt diversity when every townie generated are mostly only came from sulani for example.

Good grief. This has been one of my biggest fears (aside from a game that was anti-rabbit hole transforming into world of rabbit holes and text adventures). Up to now, I haven't seen this mentioned elsewhere. Thanks for the info, OP.

I just wish we could properly control townies in our games.

I wish we could choose basegame townies names pool: US/international or localized (I hate localized names).
I wish they made a finite number of outfit combinations for townies to choose from and not just any pack, any color, every possible slot.
I wish they somehow matched national names they introduced in packs with appropriate face features/hair/skin tones.
Disable festival outfits for good!
With every next EP, GP and SP it just gets more and more of a freak show.
