Disable Aurora Effect (Eco Lifestyle)
Can we PLEASE have this annoying Clean-Air-Aurora-Like-Light-Effect which apperantly came with Eco-Lifestyle SWITCHABLE in the settings? According to the FAN-Speed (PS4) this effect consumes loads of...

So I gave it another try. Disabling eco footprint (as seen in the attached video) does remove the aurora effect definitely only from the manage worlds page. I've tried also saving, restarting, reloading and waiting for a complete sim day, nothing changes. Finally I've replaced appliances with unmodified ones as well as removed all eco-lifestyles solar/water/wind generators. And the Aurora Effect still persists.
The fact that disabling eco-footprint completely didn't remove the aurora effect from the property/neighbourhood is probably a bug. However, I didn't want do disable it completely. It's just about that visual effect, in which the PS4 is obviously unable to render with an appropriate frame rate.

Ok,. I bet it's definitely something wrong here.
I moved in a house next to the "problem property". Doing so made the eco-footprint drop from "green" to "neutral" - in both houses. Logically, the effect is no longer visible on "manage worlds" page. Cheers, the problem was gone on the problem property. Ah, wait. Only for one sim day. While the eco-footprint is still neutral and the effect is still no longer been shown in manage worlds, it's present again in the problem property (and only there, the other house is free of it). When zooming out, it is that massive, that only a white screen is viisible. APU Fan is speeding up, fortunately after cleaning and applying new thermal grease, console is no longer shutting down due to overheating.
Bulldozing the property does remove the effect immedaiately. Replacing it from the gallery does bring it back.
I didn't make a video today, since obviously nobody cares (zero views on the other two, I assume EA is busy w/ counting money).
