Variations in House Cost for the same file

(1/5) > >>

Silverdrake:
I'm a builder, and I have to take note of the cost of my houses, furnished and unfurnished, so that I can share them. However, the same house/lot will have a different cost in edit town view than in Build/Buy mode. My theory is that this occurs because I double up on the landscaping with Moveobjects, and perhaps the cost is determined by objects per grid in one view, but not in the other. However, I don't really know why this occurs, and I'm wondering if anyone else has this issue.

hatsuniza:
I've had that happen a few times.  Yesterday I was making a starter(ish) home priced just shy of 16k.  In the Edit Town view it was around $1200 cheaper.  I don't know why, but since it was cheaper I didn't really care.

The game does some weird stuff at times, plus you frequently see inaccurate cached values.

brownlustgirl:
I have wondered this since playing the game, but I really don't want it changed. Helps my starter sims out.

blackcat:
I think that's because in build/buy mode it calculates all the gardening and outdoor stuff, and when your sim moves in he doesn't pay for this, so it shows lower price.
