Yeah.Sometimes more reasonable to make simple changes in BCONs,than keep tons of hacked objects in game. :)

There is nothing that specifically does this that I know of, as the weather machine aspirational reward already includes this functionality. It is therefore deemed unnecessary, and no such item will be made.


I still think you should add this functionality to the lot sync timer, so we can set all the seasons the same for each family. The weather machine doesn't allow for any fine control. You can't set it to the third day of spring, for example--it always starts at the beginning.

My official position on the matter is that it is actually somewhat undesirable to synchronize all seasons the same for every family. After all, in the real world, a single season doesn't last about the scale equivalent of 3-5 years. Since the time scale is so utterly deformed in this regard, synchronizing the entire neighborhood to the same deformed scale will result in it being an impossibility for sims to EVER see other seasons in a given lifestage: If you allow the seasons to be haphazardly disorganized from lot to lot, at least they'll see it as visitors.
