How to delete snow spots in build mode?

Simmerville · May 7

I intended to rebuild a community lot, but there are numerous small snow piles on the ground and I can't find a way to get rid of them. It is late Summer in my save, so I find it a bit disturbing that the game did not already get rid of them.

Do I need a cheat? I tried bb.moveobjects but that did nothing. Is the only way to send sim there in live mode?

Did you try to bulldoze lot from build mode?

cheat bb.moveobjects on or wait for the snow to smelt.

I'm just modifying the existing lot, don't want to bulldoze it.

So, I must play that lot actively for the last 8-10 white dots to go away. That's insane. My game is soon Fall, and this lot is the only lot ion this hood where there are snow spots... Well, I'll go build somewhere else and will return in Winter. It's probably easier to build when the entire hood and lots are covered with snow, because it will go away in build mode.

There is an icon somewhere in gameplay for the temperature and weather.
Otherwise, as hinted, use the moveobjects cheat to remove the snow.

@BoergeAarg61 he said in his initial post the move object cheat didn't work. 🙂

Ok. I was pretty sure I have done it several times.
1. Switch the cheat on.
2. Click on a snow slope and press delete.

Do you use MCCC? If so, in Live mode you can shift-click and delete.

It's been a while but can't sims shovel snow like they do with raking leaves?

Upload your lot to your library, than download the lot to a new game and make it summer. Then use that lot to replace the other one. I wouldn’t do this with someone’s residence though.

I've never had this problem before but when there are water puddles on a lot drawing a wall through them will get rid of them maybe try that?

Thanks all. There's a heat wave in my game, it took only a quick visit to that lot to get rid of them.

@Purple-Ink haha, you know what, I never actually tried building on those snow spots, I just took it for granted that they would need to be removed first. Next time I'll just build on!

Yeah, I have done that with puddles too, but it’s been quite awhile since I have.
