Man I just got the slowdown bug for the first time. I was able to use the lot debugger to clear visitors, but every sim hour the problem reoccured.

If it was the 'missing entrance portal' slowdown bug, it'll keep recurring until the portal is replaced.  I don't know if the usual portal replacement kit works with NL, but I don't see anything in the thread saying that it doesn't...

We have a fix for the missing portal bug in the Uni & NL patch.  CrammyBoy helped us find it.  In the meantime, you can try to use his fix on MTS2.

Do you have an aproximate date for this patch to go live? I am starting to miss it a lot, after reading all 4 pages of bugs...

I just want to add my voice to the clamor for Uni career LTW. The "design" logic on this makes NO sense. If a teen gets a want for a uni career, it is only by the player's CHOICE that that want will be unfulfillable (if the teen isn't sent to uni). So really, the want is not unfulfillable in ANY sense--all it means is you have to go to uni to fulfill it, which is perfectly reasonable! And yet--I had a lot of sims who were elders when I got uni--want to guess how many of them ended up with wants that were fulfillable? Just about NONE--because they all got career wants for careers they weren't in and couldn't get into (without JM's hack, anyway). And the designers didn't do anything about that!

Even if the teen-"unfulfillable" want were an issue (and if it is, why isn't the elder-unfulfillable want an issue?) there are so many ways around it that have been pointed out in this thread, all so far superior to the one that was chosen!

I do not mean to sound hostile at all as 1. it's not really all your fault and 2. I think you are beyond incredible for listening to all this complaining about bugs and bad design, as well, it's a huge job! I'd just really like to hear, considering the things I and others have pointed out about this, how this "design" really makes any sense and/or is better than any of the suggested alternatives...or why no one thought of any alternatives, or why they're impossible, or anything...

Hopefully very soon, but I can't promise any dates (otherwise, people get very mad if we were late and call us liars).  We are still testing it.

It just aggravates me to no end that this is repeatedly called "design" when thinking about it for thirty seconds reveals dozens of better solutions that are far more sensible...



I will continue to push on my side for Uni LTWs, but putting them back in will not be that easy, particulary because we need to retest all those things and translate all the strings in all the languages we support.
