Thank you very much, @Charmful! I think I might get it working now - I must have missed the part about the shift key

I am pretty sure the human statue is under buy - hobbies somewhere, amongst the massage table and those stuff - I have some on some of my community lots (it always amuses me - and my Sims).

If you just type in the cheat it won't move objects quarter tile until you 'turn it on' with Contril + F.

Yes, but that's why I linked to the cheats page, which has everything organized and explained in concise little paragraphs.

No need to press the Shift key, just press < or > for 45-degree rotation.

I see that, it is very helpful. I'll bookmark it since I didn't see this before.

That's the problem with this website. There are too many forums and key, basic information is hidden to where it's practically impossible to find. That's why the same questions and issues are asked over and over again.
While we're on the subject of building cheats, here's the link to the excellent Mike Inside building tutorial pages, which is also worth bookmarking.

How do you stop yourself from doing too much at one time? I create too many storylines at one time, get overwhelmed, and then delete everything I've just done.

Practice, dear! You know you do it, so - you stop. Instead of running on to the next storyline, you stay where you are. You pace yourself. You set up a rotation which will deal with all the storylines and tell yourself they'll all get done. You experiment to find out what your optimal load is.

And you don't delete anything. You let it sit there till you want to go back to it.

Thank you, @Charmful, @ScaryRob and @Marka - I think (Eureka!) I got it I really appreciate it - I would probably still have been looking for the correct arrows!

Is there a way to reset the business perks without selling the shop? I have businesses created since the beginning of the hood and previous owners didn't pass along the perks. I now have some businesses which are rank 10 and the perks are lost to the current owner.

How does meditation and the motive/aspiration freeze work? I've never used it, and my Sims motives are not freezing. It's started levitating, but still motives go down. Perhaps I need to 50/50, but I figured I'd ask first to make sure I didn't misunderstand how it works.

It just works, as soon as the meditation begins (I use meditation rather than coffins for my vampires and I've never had the freezing not work).

Has anyone elses bootstrap MTS started looking... blue? I can't say what it is, but yesterday the discussion forum suddenly looked more blue than it used to. Something about the text is not as it used to, but not sure how it was before either. I just know it looks wrong.

No, mine looks the same. It's always been blue. That's why I don't like it. I had the pink one before.

I haven't played in a few days (just doing other things and taking a break. I finished an entire 'hood...nearly)

As I mentioned before I think repairing the game awhile ago reset stuff to maxis templates instead of the Tarlia I had. Should the Maxis downtown and La Fiesta Tech really be that bad? I mean I haven't done much and could easily start over but at the same time i'm wondering if I should just get over it and play them anyway. I don't mind extra townies, I just mind adding unnecessary corruption and I don't know if they do.

If i'm told to get over it and play, that is what I shall do As I said extra townies, if they don't make the game implode lol, don't bother me none.

Townies don't make the game explode, it's just most of us are very bored of them after ten years and want them gone. Then when do want a few, not a hoard we make our own.

AFAIK the only advantage to Tarlia's LFT is that Mickey's broken face template is fixed. And the Maxis downtown isn't bad at all, though House of Fallen Trees generally glitches sooner or later.

Thanks How does the house of fallen trees glitch? Do you have to play it for it to glitch or does it somehow just glitch anyway? Just curious

If motives still go down while meditating, then a mod may be affecting it. An example of how I first used meditation was in The Sims Life Stories. Riley learned to meditate early on which kept her needs up while waiting for a goal to start if she had the requirements finished. Mostly it helped while she was pregnant and had nothing else to accomplish other than keep her needs up until time to have the party. After eating, sleeping and raising her other needs, she just meditated until there was a requirement for her to complete. Otherwise her needs dropped much to quickly and it was annoying to get anything done. Now I just use it when a sim has to wait to do something, like a teen sneaking out. Gotta be rested for whatever it is they do at all hours of the night besides hiding from the police. (:

I don't think the House's glitching is contagious. It usually starts crashing after awhile, judging from my wholly unscientific impression gained from reading other people's blogs and posts and tumblrs. I got rid of the absurdly deep basement, thinking that the lot probably tended to strain machine resources; but the whole time he lived there Jay McCullough was plagued by blanks in his wants panels, and eventually it started crashing randomly on me. That might have been part of the general problem I had with downtown, though, as not long after I gave up and bulldozed HoFT I also had to give up and amputate downtown. (All graves properly moved and community lots sold, of course.)
