Several magic castle - lots and all of them empty

[pandora]

After turning my sim into a witch with the batbox, I have about 8 castle-lots and all of them are empty. There is a lot but no castle on it, just green ground. I am desperate. Am I allowed to delete all magic suburb-files? Or will this crash my game? I want these suburbs to regenerate , but how ?! help me please.

The hobby ones regenerate. So, I would assume the magic ones would too. But since I don't know for sure, I'd back up the neighbourhood just to be safe, and then delete the subhoods out pure curiosity.

It didn't work. The game recreated all hoods, but there are still several magic hoods and lots shown when my sim wants to visit a castle.
Oh dear

What I do is the opposite of what you want - I want to get rid of these lots without them respawning. I delete all the hobby and magic lots upon hood creation, and it doesn't seem to be causing any problems so far. However, they don't regenerate, but I think this could be because I leave the suburb files intact. If you've got a backup, you may as well try it, although obviously I can't guarantee that it will work.

I think you've fatally corrupted your neighborhood by deleting things randomly, if you have more than two magic castles.
