Title: No More Bug Infestations While Gardening in Seasons Post by: breanan on 2007 August 13, 13:10:48 Does anyone know if a hack has been made to keep bugs from getting into the garden and trees? I looked on the site but I couldn't find anything. I'm bad to overlook stuff so I figured I'd post here asking. I apologize if its a topic already open!

Pescado on 2007 August 14, 06:52:53 I don't have a bug-free gardening, because that's what the entire point of greenhouses is, but I *DO* have an anti-lag which removes the visible display of bugs and ladybugs, which can slow your system to a dead crawl. It is presently unreleased.
Title: Re: No More Bug Infestations While Gardening in Seasons Post by: breanan on 2007 August 14, 12:35:30 J.M. That would be a great thing! Thats the reason why I want something like that because my sims become almost unplayable. Please release it cause boy do I need it!

Yes; plants in a greenhouse are not affected by bug infestations. Title: Re: No More Bug Infestations While Gardening in Seasons Post by: ZiggyDoodle on 2007 August 14, 13:12:50 Quote Does greenhouses do that by default? Yes. Greenhouses have no insects. You do have to build a two-story greenhouse for your fruit trees to accommodate their height. jfade has a hack to keep the ladybugs from swarming during the night and nongrowing season. http://www.djssims.com Title: Re: No More Bug Infestations While Gardening in Seasons Post by: witch on 2007 August 15, 10:20:42 Yes. Greenhouses have no insects. You do have to build a two-story greenhouse for your fruit trees to accommodate their height. My greenhouses fit the fruit trees at single story height? I haven't noticed them poking through the roof - though that may not be saying much - it takes me a while to notice things these days. Title: Re: No More Bug Infestations While Gardening in Seasons Post by: jrd on 2007 August 15, 10:28:45 There is some clipping, at least I saw it when I tried to place them in a greenhouse. Doesn't affect gameplay apparently though.

You must be growing dwarf hybrids, Witch. ;) I've used two stories because when I first tried building one, I plopped down the trees and then built the glasshouse walls. When I saw the treetops were higher than the walls, the second story went up. Will try to fit them into a one-story glasshouse. Cheaper. Title: Re: No More Bug Infestations While Gardening in Seasons Post by: Gwill on 2007 August 15, 13:02:19 It depends on how large the greenhouse is. The bigger it is, the taller the roof will be.
Title: Re: No More Bug Infestations While Gardening in Seasons Post by: Flamingo on 2007 August 15, 15:48:57 Yes; plants in a greenhouse are not affected by bug infestations. Just make sure you put a roof on the greenhouse, otherwise you will get weeds and bugs. Title: Re: No More Bug Infestations While Gardening in Seasons Post by: witch on 2007 August 23, 07:26:00 My greenhouses are about 8 squares wide, the trees are 2 empty squares in from the sides, there is a little bit of clipping at the edge of the tree top, though I don't notice as I play with cutaway walls.
