Microclimates in Uni?

<< < (3/5) > >>

Ellatrue:
have you considered adding something to adjust the seasons to the lot sync timer? It irritates me when the seasons are out of sync, I feel like I should be able to have it so that, say, on day 14, it will be the 2nd day of spring for all the houses using the lotsync timer.

Plus I can tell from the neighbourhood screen how far each family has progresses (season icon next to family name).


Huh -- I never noticed the season icon in the family info.

It's on the mouseover of the lot, listed right before the family name. I don't believe it shows once you've actually clicked on the lot.

5-day rotation is a good idea, actually. I've been doing 3 2-days and one 3-day, rinse and repeat, but if I don't play for a day or so I forget which lot I'm on. The lot sync timer doesn't fit either of my playstyles.

Had the same problem with 16 families, six private dorms in Uni, and a couple experimental lots.  I decided to print a spreadsheet containing basic family info so I could mark the date each lot was played.  That's kept me from getting lost.

The downside is seeing that it takes me nearly a month to make one full rotation.  One reason why I never leave a lot until everyone is in bed. 

jsalemi:
I feel like a throw-back -- I play each lot one day and rotate to the next.  Only time I spend more than a day on a particular lot is when a major event (like a birth) is very close. So most of my main hood (Pleasantview) is still in winter where it started.

Of course, with 40 or so families to play, it'll take a while to get to spring. :)

Do you remember where the bathrooms and phones are in each of your houses?  I sure don't.
