So today (in game) was Geekcon. My Sim had the day off from work so I figured I'd send him out there from Newcrest to take in the sites.
Big mistake.
Horrendous thunderstorm. All the food stalls were closed. He was hungry so I sent him into Planet Honey Pop to at least grab something from the bar, but the bartender wasn't there. And if I send him home I'm going to have the festival bleedover. I'll have to roll back the save I guess.
I don't want to turn off the rain and thunderstorms because I like the weather -- but it's frustrating when features in one pack interfere with features in another. Can the game be programmed to cancel the festivals if the weather is miserable?

Setting up a Sim Nation wide weather forecast should not be a problem, at least not within the current season. Weather itself might load upon arrival, but the matrix is already prepared. If you go to another world and check the calendar with weather forecast, then return 3 or 4 days later, it will not have changed.
There is something called surprise weather though, so I guess we would still need to deal with the risk of thunderstorms ruining festivals, but it would be reduced to those surprise days only. Besides, surprise weather often last for just a couple hours, not the full day. Guess we can live with that.
Personally, I leave the venues and don't care about bleedover anymore. I just don't go to them often enough. I hate city living. It's ruined the game in so many ways!
Though if possible would like to be able to tell what the weather would be in other worlds. Give the weather channel more purpose.

I never got Seasons, was this "Festival Creep" a thing before Seasons? Because I've never experienced that, and I leave festivals early all of the time.
