If anyone is interested I can separate the items so if you don't have Vampires you want get the message that the item was removed each time you load. btw if you want to make it not so easy to make money just don't evolve the items and mix other garden items in with these. Note you only need to put the items in 1 Lice Cold Fridge, the customers will be able to purchase from any of them.

Your political commentary is out of place on a gaming website.

I've made some mods for The Sims 1 -- yes, The Sims ONE :-) -- which you can find at http://corylea.com/Sims1ModsByCorylea.html

It may be just me but I don't really think "pulled an Obama economy" qualifies as a political commentary.
Political reference, yes. Political commentary, no.

I still used the script to drop the values even further than EA, the one that stops the random pricing and uses the lowest value of the fruit and it's still OP in my opinion, you can earn thousands in a harvest still.

I probably should post it somewhere, I updated someone else's python script to work with the new expansions.

I agree with Corylea, your political commentary is out of place here.

Can you all not get so triggered over a mere political joke. Jesus H Christ, like I'm a staunch supporter of Obama, and I still laughed at the joke.

It took a very long time to fully ripen before the December patch, I don't know what tuning was involved but I would harvest at about 60 or 70% ripened and let the process complete in the fridge and even while being sold at times so that made the prices vary a great deal even by thousands of dollars. I just ran this model business as I didn't want to spend a great deal of time with it or deal with it on a daily basis to earn a living in Sims 4. When they patched it I could no longer afford my lifestyle and was nearly forced into working for a living.

I thought it was hilarious and it's not political commentary. If you're offended why are you on the internet of all places?

You're welcome, I thought I might not be the only one wanting the old prices back, just wish I knew how they handled the ripening part before the patch but this is much faster.

Thank you! This is something that was bothering me for a while. I don't know what EA was thinking.

You should have played a Trump card. Not as offensive towards people's tender feefees.

90% of people go around looking for something to be offended by. I was amused. The trump card was amusing too. So was the whining. lol Maybe I'm just easily amused. Thanks for the mod.

I just thought I would chime in since everyone else is putting in their two cents. I also found the description off-putting. Not only because I find it extremely distasteful when people insert polarising topics such as politics and religion into unrelated things (and yes, in this negative context, it was commentary), but more importantly, it made a simple description more confusing. I had to pause and summarise to myself: "Obama economy? What does that even mean? Okay... so the originally high prices were... decreased for the seller and this mod... increases it. Okay... so Obama decreased... ugh, why do I care?!" I'm still not clear what the mod does. I thought the store owner sets the overall price percentage of their store? If you wanted to sell above market value wouldn't you mark up the prices? Also, when I made a grocery store and then sold it, then visited the lot and bought the items, they were more expensive than if I had harvested the food and sold it from my inventory. However, I didn't buy/place things from the fridge, so could the fridge itself be the issue?

Congratulations to the people who don't care. Teostar, you don't care and you supported Obama? I'm sure you put other Obama supporters to shame. You sir, deserve a medal. I didn't support Obama and I didn't appreciate the "joke", so what do I get? /s

C'mon, it really shouldn't be hard to imagine why some people would be turned off by this. There is nothing wrong with what was said, it was where you said it. People came looking for a description for the mod, and was ambushed with political commentary. I shouldn't go to download a mod and leave knowing the modder's political views. It's disturbing and feels dirty for some odd reason. Maybe it's because I hate off-topic politics and pro/anti-religion talk.

Wow sorry you feel that way. You take things way too seriously. And no it had nothing to do about the lower of the prices it was having to close the store for not being able to make enough money. I work at a power plant and so many businesses have closed that we have shut down many of our plants. I didn't mean for it to be offensive I was just trying to make a joke at EA for ruining the gameplay. I use MCCCCCCCC..... (however many Cs there are) Mod and the no jealousy setting. Had EA messed it up I probably would have joked that I was pimping like Trump until they patched the game so I'm not political but I will make fun of them if they have faults Democrats or Republicans and if that's wrong and NSA comes after me I'll wipe my computer with a cloth.
