I can only find very old threads and none offer any help or resolution. Not sure if it is a coincidence or not, but after downloading tiny Living the super speed does not work and the game is significantly slower. I waited 24h and tried to play again and the same issue is occurring.  Any help??

    Hey, 

    I checked again and there was no one on the lot, or anything that could explain it. So I checked another household and the speed works there. Went back to the household I was using and it works again! Also it is hard to say if it works when they work as they all have careers I either go to work with them or they WFH.

    Maybe going in and playing with a different household within the same game helped? But thanks!

    @parkwoodpeewee is there no one else on the lot that could account for it not kicking in ? Does it kick in when your Sim goes to work ?

    Could you test a different house to see if the same happens ?

    @parkwoodpeewee Travelling somewhere or switching households can often fix stuff so yeah, it's possible that fixed it.

    Thank you so much! I had the same problem and I have spent so long trying to figure it out. Never would have thought of that!

    The Ultra Speed hasn't been working for me either. When Sims are away for work and/or when they're asleep, and no one's around the household awake or anything. I don't have pets in the household nor having anyone over that is preventing the Ultra Speed to work.

    I have tried traveling and switching households but none of them seem to work for me. I do have mods, but I have checked what one could be causing the issue and it still keep happening. Alongside this is Sims not changing to their Career outfits.
