Has anyone else noticed their bills going down after the patch? I used to have an average of 14000§ owed, but this week (after installing the patch) it's only 800§! And I have not yet placed any power generation or anything like that. What in the world?
EDIT: Seems like others have the same problem. I made a Bug Report -- here, please "me too" it if you have encountered this as well!

The notifications spam means that at that the time every unit of power you are producing is immediately being used up. Bare in mind that solar panels only produce energy when it is sunny. Also check on your bills that you are storing energy and not auto selling surplus.
My windmill is still turning, I am storing my surplus, and it's been sunny most days. Going back to the game now to see if it's gotten better.
I live in san myshuno in one of my saves and the eco footprint was getting worse without me doing anything but now I downloaded an apartment from the gallery and suddenly it's getting better. I have a mixture of industrial and non industrial wallpaper. How is it just changing so drastically on its own? I don't think I'm doing much.

You can also collect water from snow if you have Seasons.
Can someone please help me figure out how to use solar panels for power on an off the grid lot? I see the Harris residence is off the grid and they have a TV, stereo and computer and no visible solar panels. HOW?!

Upgraded my television and shower to be more eco friendly but my eco footprint is still dropping once a week to almost industrial. I also influence people a lot to vote for the eco friendly upgrades on the Neigborhood board. What do i do wrong?
Is your lot off the grid? What are your lot traits?
Can anyone tell me what we can do with the furniture in questionable condition that you get from dumpster diving ? When I open my household inventory and drag the item to sell i get full price ! But when I put it on my home lot they furniture is unusable. How can I fix it ?
Is there a way to remove the trash that was off-lot, or is it inaccessible?
Are you talking about the trash in Promise Port by the community board? I could not remove any of that. But the community lot I could go into build mode and sledgehammer the trash.

So I’m pretty sure in the live stream they said if it was burned you could clean it with the pollution vacuum thingy from the new career.
Hello! I have just played about a week gameplay, polls closed for the N.A.P.s, and tuesday came, but no N.A.P.s got activated. Am I missing something? I have a large household, and everyone voted, some even several times.

LOL, that ol' black magic? I have no clue.

@illustratedhappiness ...does ur sim have the frugal reward which would of course reduce bills. My bills have not gone down. I had to move to another lot because my Sims is just starting off and he was almost out of money since everything takes so much time which I love how much time it takes to earn and do things in Eco Lifestyle--like life.
Sorry already posted this somewhere else, but someone needs to tell me if this is new? I LOVE this.
OMGosh, my life just flashed in front of my eyes.
Yeah this is freaking amazing. And I thought these ridiculously cute toddler CAS and BB items were the only family play-ish stuff we were gonna get lol

Really? I would have expected mushrooms, not flowers.
I have 5 in my inventory from dumpster diving. I'm ready to open a bike shop.
Didn't try with mushrooms, but kombucha is basically fermented tea.
