Help! Greenhouse environment score is broken

(1/4) > >>

lady shay:
The environment bar in all my greenhouses is totally red. I've tested my hacks. I systematically began removing hacks. After removing "Numenor_GlobalHack_OFB_Custom-objects-placeable-on-shelves.package" the problem was resolved. Then I installed Celebration stuff but it messed up my 12 hour clock so I removed it, removed my download folder, and reinstalled Seasons because after the removal the game wouldn't start. Now the problem with no environment in my greenhouses has returned. I started removing hacks until there were no hacks left. In fact, I removed the ENTIRE downloads folder. After removing the downloads folder I created a new family named "Test" and put him in a fresh house I built. The problem was resolved so I played with his lot for awhile and the problem returned. My sims mood bar can't get higher than halfway up in the greenhouse and their productivity suffers. I put my downloads folder back in and am left scratching my head. Is this a Maxis problem? Please help.

Bit elementary, but this can be very hard to spot...are you using sprinklers? Check them. They can break rather frequently but aren't terribly noticeable. Enviro score plummets. Since your Test family had a good enviro score at first and then it went bad, that's what I suspect.

*Quit making me miss the Tests, people, or I'll have to resurrect my laptop and clone the suckers into my current neighborhood. I miss Chuck & Saish v2.

Hecubus:
We had a conversation about this earlier (can't recall the thread), but it boiled down to two things:

1. Sprinklers (mentioned above)

2. Floor tiles under the dirt. Yeah. TOTALLY counterintuitive. But I use a gravel-like floor tile which I spread on the greenhouse floor, THEN, using moveobjects_on, place the garden patches.

I NEVER even knew that sprinklers could break. I kept wondering why a certain area of produce always died.  I'm so glad to finally know what's happening with the environment. 2 of my sprinklers were broken at one house and one sprinkler was broken at the other house and I never even thought sprinklers needed maintenance. Thanks for responding.

Will Macrotastics... Repair work on sprinklers?  I don't have Seasons yet, so can't test this.
