spawning townies
I use Biechen's mod to limit spawning homeless townies but I'm still getting more than I would like. I am seriously considering subscribing to Paulson's patreon to get the updated NPCC mod. Is it worth it?
Forum Discussion
- I use NPCC because it's the only thing that stops NPC spawning completely. For me, this mod is a must have. My favorite feature it has is the ability to disable shifts and region/lot dependency from jobs, allowing less sims to man all my bars, restaurants, retail, etc. Instead of having over 20 bartenders, I just have 2 to that work at every bar in my world. I haven't found another mod out there that does this, so it makes NPCC valuable to me.
Paulson did quietly release an updated free version (1.3.5c) though, so you shouldn't need to subscribe to his patreon to try it out. Link is on his website here. - Just for your information, townieoverhaul_lessfame is still awaiting an update for the Spa Day Refresh which added new townie filters. I haven't got round to it before as I was accomodating several house guests for a few weeks.
Also there's a mod by Zero that is more restrictive than mine is:

- Don't worry, I'm not offended. I know pretty well that there are different tastes when it comes to townie generation.
In my save, there are no new ones generated (since I stopped the new Spa Day mods, that is), but I think this is very hard to achieve without a lot of insight into which roles the game has and which townies need to be kept. - thank you all. And I didn't meant to call you out @83bienchen ! love your mods! I just hate spawning townies. :wink:
