Issue
The save game starts to disintegrate itself. Lots start to get deleted, causing endless loading, loading into empty lots.
This issue has been around since the very beginning so it’s not tie...

Houses/Lots Disappear

So what size does a save have to be before this starts happening? Large houses w/objects are easy to get rid of or just not have in your game and the same with r - rentals. Save sizes are a completely different story, it would have to be monitored to make sure you are not getting close to the size where you see this occur. So can you give us an idea of the size a save would be that this starts happening? And if you have a save that already has those big houses or r-rentals, can you get rid of them with out your save going belly up if you are under that limit? I have located another save of this world that has NOT had this start happening in. It was saved and moved because of the August update to an flash drive. I am wondering if I can go in it and remove anything that might cause this, will I be able to stop it from happening? Again, thank you for answering my questions ❤️

I think it heavily depends on your computer's specs. I've never seen this myself but do read the discussion in this and other relate threads for details.
Start with the thread I linked in the OP for more links to connected issues.

Thank you, I sure will read it.
I do not mind keeping under a limit, if I know what it is. I never had problems with saves in the old "Sims 2" days, but if your CC got above a certain limit, then you just couldn't get it to run. So you knew to keep it under that limit. Sims 4 is a different story, as I have not heard of a CC limit. But saves that go belly-up over a certain size? That will be tough. One would have to keep in eye on it and keep track of when it happened, then replicate it with other saves to check if that was the limit. We may need a thread so others can do the same, maybe we could figure out that number if several of us were doing this at the same time. Alot to think about, that is for sure.
Again, thank you for taking the time to answer my questions. I think I am going to make a copy of that save that hasn't had the lots disappear YET and see if going in and replacing those heavy content lots will help keep it from occurring. I can absolutely see where it could stress a save to have many of them in a game. And I admit, I tend to download alot of lots that are heavily decorated. That particular world (Newcrest) is almost all "commercial" lots, so they would all contain alot of decorations.
