Loading taking ages.

Hi there, is it a save you have been playing a while?  It's just that I've been having this same problem when I've been on the same save for a while, I tried everything to make it run better through help online but eventually used chatgpt and worked through more solutions and it seems to me that one of the big problems is loads of homeless sims and also way too many ghosts.  Since I had a big clean up of them the game is running a LOT better and quicker loading.  I'm on pc so I can use a mod to keep the ghost population under control from now on but I'm not sure how you could do that on console easily sorry.  But you could try deleting a lot of the homeless sims through manage worlds too see if that helps somewhat? 

I've been playing in the save in question for one or two days irl, but I haven't had an extremely long advance within the game itself. Anyway, two days after my bug report the loading magically returned to normal, to be honest it's even faster than normal, which makes me believe it was some problem of the game itself since I didn't changed or did anything to try to solve it by myself.  In the end I'm just happy that, one way or another, it was solved c:
