@Rflong7 I started on my train station today. No pics yet, though.
One thing I ran in to is that I tried to move the little house to another spot in that same area (the one house you built around the center lot that will someday make a great park!) and the price of the house stayed with the old lot. The cost of the house on the new lot was 1200 simoleans which is obviously just the cost of the lot. Is there something I am doing that is causing this?

Hm, ~I don't see any price alteration to the lot in CAW.
I checked it my game (the house in the little neighborhood by the hill to the tracks) and the price is over 20k and the lot is only 1200. I don't how you could do it wrong and make that happen.
And yet....when I used the move lot tool it did what you described. If I copied the lot to the bin and move it then everything was fine. I guess I never move lots with the tool.
Has it never happened with the Move Lot Tool before?
Okay- once I went in the lots (edit mode) it seem to reset the prices to what they should be. I hope it works.
@HappySimmer3 I have run into this same thing in other worlds when using the hand tool to relocate at lot.I could never figure out if it is a game glitch or maybe one of the mods I use.
@Rflong7 Isle of Sims iii, Not sure if this is just a Beta testing world, but there are some problems. There's no world grass, the hills and mountains are not painted. You probably left out a road to the 64x64 beach lot and left a path, but my sims have problems with it.
Sims having a baby could not get to the hospital walking along the path, husband gave up waiting for her and went swimming, she had the baby on the path, after returning home, husband ignores baby, looked at the relationship, the child is just a house mate.
The beautiful lot by the swamps is to foggy, cannot see toddler on the floor. I prefer to put my own fog in with buy debut option rather than having it in world. There are other routing issues to many to mention here at this time. Will download the world again when its finished.
I have no problem with Isle of Sims ll and I love the world, play in world with most of all my sims. I use Nrass Master controller and Overwatch mods only. All the worlds I downloaded and played of your over the years are working fine, its just this one I am having problems with.

Hi, Moinesse
OMGoodness- those are terrible and I have no idea what's going on.
I did download it and while there is a lot of fog in the swamp area, it's not in the house nor when the view gets close to the lot middle.
The world does show grass for me and you're right, I did remove the road to that side of the island. It's just a path now.
I'm so sorry.
I would suggest uninstalling it, delete the World Cache files and other cache files and then redownload/reinstall to see if it shows correctly.
@HappySimmer3 I have run into this same thing in other worlds when using the hand tool to relocate at lot.I could never figure out if it is a game glitch or maybe one of the mods I use.
This has always happened to me too. I was once able to get a 60k house, for a starter price of about 15k after moving it with the hand tool.
@Rflong7 Found the problem. I downloaded the world again. Deleted the cache files. re-installed it. Decided to remove the mods folder out to try the world and it worked.
Everything was painted as it should be. I quit the game and moved the mods folder back in. Checked the mods folder just to be sure everything was of the latest update and found a LIGHTENING MOD! I never use a lightening mod, and have no idea why it was in the folder. Isles Of Sims iii does not like lightening mods.
I also used the hand tool in world edit to reset a couple of building that I had routing problems with. That fixed the routing problems. Haven't checked the fog problem but that is a minor issue. There are other nice lots to build on.
Thanks for your reply and thank you for the world. Love it!

I have run into it before too, but I don't remember it happening with every lot. I also placed some lots with the edit town tool and when I placed houses on them they cost like 3,000 simoleons instead of what they should cost. That silly Dustin Broke decided to move into one of them when I wasn't looking. Of course that was caused by one of my NRAAS mods that allows that; I moved him back in with his family and fixed the settings on the mod so that doesn't happen again.
I'm going to chalk this up as one of the oddities that can happen in this wonderful, maddening, complex but super fun game. I just thought I should check to make sure it wasn't being caused by something on the world level or something that I was doing wrong.

@Rflong7 for some reason with Moon Base Charlie II and Mesa Valley II when I load them up I can't zoom in from Town View it's like that little magnifing glass thingy isn't there the only way I've been able to zoom in on a lot is by using the M hot key or right clicking on my sim
I'm just a little bit crazy LOL
Okay actually I'm totally and completely nuts LOL

Hi
You must be totally and completely nuts. *your signature.
Anyway- I just downloaded and installed both worlds, added a Sim in a lot, and had no problem with the magnifying glass showing up in neighborhood view. I have no clue why it won't show in your game... maybe clean cache files (worldcache, too) and how about any new mods?
I have no idea why it won't show.

Yeah I've tried cleaning out the worldcaches and no new mods. I have to use wireless to download so maybe that's causing a problem. It doesn't happen with Moon Base Delta and Mesa Valley I'll just have to figure out where to put the extra lots I want with Mesa Valley so all is good.
Thanks for replying

Well I found out what was causing it turns out it's a mod problem with Nraas Overwatch I noticed that someone made a post over there about it
It also happens with couple of Flstriders worlds
So hopefully they can fix the problem with why the mod is disabling the Town View Zoom in

@ScottDemon May I ask where you read this? which worlds of mine were having problems? I need to re-look at those worlds to make sure I did not do something wrong. Thanks for pointing this out, I do appreciate it!

Without a mod there is no issue with your worlds Flstrider. I would not worry about issues caused by mods especially Overwatch - that is a script mod and often has issues through out it's history. Like I could not use that mod when I was testing worlds for simmers as it had a number of issues it saw as issues in the game that was not issues. It would see some sims as stuck when they weren't and create havoc - so it was one mod I finally stopped using period - well actually I stopped using all Sims 3 mods. Without mods I have no issues with Sims 3 or your worlds or any of Rflongs either. Those two listed in that post are two of Rflongs and two I play a lot in.

I've used @flstrider worlds, several of them with mods and never had that issue. Overwatch does reset stuck sims and I can turn that off if I want to see where they are getting stuck, fix any issue, and then turn it back on to see if the issue was fixed. Never had any issues like what the other poster is describing for sure.
Overwatch also sees grazing animals as stuck sims too - and when ever I used to chase down overwatches reports there was no issues at all in the area it was reporting. One of the things I do when I test worlds is heavily test routing and look for breaks in any of it or holes - even when there was nothing creating a problem overwatch kept reporting issues. Reported sims watching concerts, grazing horses and Unicorns and deer all as being stuck - none ever were. It is a pain that it found as many issues that were not an issue as it found actual issues. Finally I stopped trying to test anything while I had mods - eventually I stopped using mods period in Sims 3 - and fixed the game properly so no mods were needed anyway.

I love Industrial Island. I've used it for so many things from a down and out town to a post apocalyptic setting.

Oh, and yes I have moved lots before with the hand tool and have not ran into this issue most of the time.
