FYI: Guinea Pig Rescue Center CHANGED

It was a couple weeks ago that they made the change. One update or another, I forget which. I liked the original version better.

Oh no! :oops: It's showing for me. I'm not sure how to fix it then.

Works fine for me as well.

Oh! Never even noticed that! Yeah I like the before better.

huh weird

I wonder why they decided to change it though. Why now? And why on a free, limited time building?
But thumbs up for EA improving the small details. I think it looks really good now. The 'before' wasn't that terrible though.

I've got that. I took multiple shots trying to capture the animation before it was gone forever.

I thought something was different about the end of the little road, but I didn't put much more thought into it. Interesting...Anyways, I think I prefer it the way it is now. It was just a dirt road that led to nowhere before. Now it has a definite end. I wish they would give a dirt road option to go along with the pavement, concrete, river tools. If there was a dirt road tool, I would prefer the before version. It doesn't matter much anyway on my current design. I have a boardwalk fence running up the left-hand side of it, where the road ends. I placed mine in my rustic/rural area next to Cletus/Nelson/Crazy Cat Lady.

Some players were complaining how the Guinea Pig Center had a large dirt road; but, there were no dirt roads in the game and it would have to awkwardly attach to a paved road. The update half-heartedly addresses these players concerns.

Only the Guinea Pig Rescue Center was changed since it's really the only building in the game that suffers from this unique problem. Overall, EA was catering to a vocal minority, though, I don't think most players care either way. Thanks, EA, for listening to players, anyway.

Yeah, I don't really mind it either way, but it would have been cool if EA gave us a dirt road tool. I hope that comes in an update one day. I could definitely use it around Cletus'/Nelson's/Crazy Cat Lady's/Guinea Pig Rescue/Brown houses.

We do need them but hopefully when/if they do it's the pavement where the buildings can go over it as well as connected
