Crash on resized lots at 7PM -- any ideas?
Inge:
Now... is *that* possibly what's causing the crashing? Terrain paints on the shrunk bit? I know terrain paints have been implicated in crashing in other contexts.

Sorry for a defect in that copy. My mistake...
I've updated the post for the download, and I'm now pretty sure the lot texture also affects the terrain painting.
Please re-download it for further testing... :)
Not a problem. Thanks for the update. I'll try it again, when I get a chance.
In general, I think that these mismatched-size lots are an interesting area of study... I'm just not sure that the game will like them any better than the shrunken lots, in the long term. I was really pleased to see that I could add a wall to the left lot edge without any problems at all - this would be cooler than shrunken lots (since the edges are buildable), if we could get it to work.

No, I doubt it. After I got the crash with niol's lot, I tried adding terrain paints to various of my shrunken lots without any problem.
Then again, I've never added terrain paints *before* shrinking - that's an completely different test. Could someone see whether there's a correlation between terrain paints on the original lots and crashing on the shrunken lots?
Inge:
I'll go test that now. I have just tested a width-shrunk beach lot and that worked fine in spite of some wave machines stranded off-lot trying to animate invisibly without a location to do it in.
Inge:
Nope - no crash even with shrunk-off groundpaint. :( I feel as if I don't fit in! Everyone else has managed to make at least *one* crashing lot

Not me. No crashes with any of my shrunken lots. Then again, I haven't been trying very hard. I've probably only played a few hours in the last 2 months.
