Lot Taxes Too High!!
I've been playing TheSims since day one of the original game on the PC. So, I'm a long time fan of the franchise, and I have enjoyed the games very much. I'm probably even one of the very few who als...
I have read some of the solutions regarding the high tax bill. These are not the point. I do not pay tax every week or month or year on my belongings just when I initially buy them in the real world. One should not have to clear out their inventory or cheat or alter the way they live because of the way some people perceive life. If you want the real world apply tax inclusively at time of purchase and leave it alone. I too enjoy this game, it is my downtime and I no longer find it enjoyable due to these taxes. My sim has a simple life in the science career, she should not have to clear out inventory especially since she needs it for her work. Now she has twins and I find I can't expand the house without cheats, or pay a bill.
Well, I made a mod on MTS that accounts for the latent power drain on the new lots. The appliances still seem to drain power at a higher rate than the other worlds though.
I thought since they re-did the billing system that it would work better but it's been buggier than ever. I think the entire system needs another re-design.
Why are lot taxes so high? My sim is paying 60g a year in taxes!! Nothing I do will bring her down to $0. I would like the eco and off grid items to at least have her break even.
