off the grid lot trait

I have a few issues with this trait.: 1. When using the wash tub, after the water gets dirty you have no way of cleaning it so you're then stuck with having constant dirty laundry or having to buy a wash tub over and over to keep clean water.
2. When using the shower, you can do a quick and tepid shower but it seems kind of pointless if my sim has to shower twice to keep clean; not really saving water then are you?
3. How can my sim get a job if they can't use their phone or computer while on this lot? if we had newspapers I could see this working much better.
  • Hey,

    I'm not sure if this is the right place to as this but I'm too new to the forums to make my own posts.
    I'm having a problem where my sim can't take a shower without getting the negative "brackish water" moodlet.
    I know that in Island Paradise and Seasons you can shower in a waterfall and in the rain respectively, but I don't have those packs. The only packs I have installed are Get Together, City Living, and Outdoor Retreat. So, at the moment I'm not sure how to take a decent shower without leaving my lot. Does anyone one have any suggestions?
  • Isn't the off the grid trait in the base game? If so then adding stuff for that to be only in the IL expansion pack would have been another complaint of people being left out and stuff, but to be honest we should be able to properly use the trait and not have to buy wash tubs over and over to refill water.
