4th speed stopped working?
Zazazu:
I think you are having a basic misunderstanding of what 4th speed is. 4th speed is the same speed as 3rd speed, except that it will continue on in 3rd speed until something "important" happens as defined by the game, then dropping down into 1st speed.

Seriously? Unless my brains have been addled, I remember 4th speed was really fast. The little green bar under the sleep icon zoomed across within seconds!

I think the game tips said that 4th speed was 3rd speed that continued until the selected sim finished their current action, after which it went to 1st. It was never faster than 3rd for me.

The 4th speed is kinda like the 'skip' function on a CD player versus the fast forward. All it does is zoom through the current action until it's complete. Mine is also misbehaving, along with the time in the game sticking for hours. I just don't use the 4th speed anymore. Seemed like a good idea but...oh well...

Thought I'd pipe up and mention that my 4th speed isn't acting like it used to, either.
Lots of folks say that fourth is basically third with an auto-pause when something happens, but that's not at all what it USED to act like in my case. In mine, it used to be ultra-fast, zooming through things like sleeping and working in about two seconds. Now, however, it is just like third with auto-pause, which sucks.
I'm guessing that those who say it's third with auto-pause have had their fourth speed broken all along. It seems to be an extremely common thing.
