Post any bugs you find here. But there aren't as many bugs that are really bugs and I don't already know about than when this first started, so also use this as a general conversation save, or to ask / tell me anything. #1 most commented save in tpt!

    BOBHAMSTER: I don't understand your report of signs not working when clicked. They work fine for me. samisong: Only serious reports here please. I'm not deleting someone's account over a save. explosivepowder: It's something we've talked about, but only due to community suggestions around it. We don't believe it is feasible. Making the simulation size dynamic would significantly slow down the game even at the current resolution.

    FrostedBagel: Anyway I will definitely keep doing this in my free time, but I do often prioritize life, and I don't have the 8+ hours of free time a day I used to have 10 years ago. So if I have the appearance of burnout, then yeah, but don't worry it's not much effort to do what I do so I won't ever stop doing it. (3/2?)

    FrostedBagel: I used to talk with friends on this save daily, and I do miss that. The last month you can see I'm a bit sick of all the misc bug reports and requests coming in here, very few of which will ever get fixed (mostly because Android bugs). But I will still try to respond to every one that I can. (2/2)

    FrostedBagel: Yeah I definitely use sterner vocabulary these days. I have less passion for it these days, it's more of duty. Back then I swore to make sure TPT wouldn't die, and I still try to uphold that promise by maintaining the site and commuinity. But it's nowhere near what I used to do, where I would be very active in the community because I liked the game and the players. (1/2)

    BOBHAMSTER: A nazi concentration camp is racist by definition. It's not allowed under the rules. BOBHAMSTER: You can select erase tool as your specific delete element to "unselect" it, that is the default. BOBHAMSTER: odd, never seen black lines while resizing the game. Is this the PC version? What OS? samisong: There was once a bug that only showed itself after a few hours, but I don't understand, are you saying signs move position?

    Any chance that bigger simulation areas will ever be supported? They'd have to be a seperate type of save (Different size options when you create a new sim perhaps?) in order to maintain compatibility with older saves, but could be good.

    i was curious and this isnt because i dont think you do i was just courious if you still enjoy doing this i noticed a sterner vocabulary in your comments recent years plus you have been doing this since the beggining considiring your from what i understand the creator of the game and its at least been 10 years since the original creation. it got me thinking if you still enjoy doing this everyday
