5 months is fast? Oh, wait, I think I started initial analysis way back in Feb, so that's almost 10 months.
Work on MV map proper started in July.
There's probably only 48 (wo)man-hours worth of work into this map in total, but the delays are due to me having to hunt down routing reports and having to read posts like "my Sim who stays in the walled City cannot go to this other Lot, he exits cab, run and get into another cab". Very illuminating, no? And so helpful...I'm left scratching my head and wondering "
What Sim, what Lots (from where and to what destination), on which road does the exiting and re-entering occur?".
The (younger) Monty Household's issue was found coincidentally as I happened to click on them as a Test subject to test the fixes. Someone on the forums mentioned Gino Ferrari but I had no problems with him or his Lot. Granted, later patches play a part; as there was that debacle with the Rabbitholes, especially for Lunar Lakes, in one of the updates.
If you guys have issues for other Lots, other Households, or other areas, name NAMEs, and I'll look into them...even more appreciated if you could take a picture and show me what is wrong, so I don't have to spend time to play to replicate the issue to then decide on how to fix. Most times, it is not easy to replicate routing issues when you only play for a Sim-week worth of gameplay, or less.
Or, if you want to share the Save, I'm not opposed to that either...
If there's not many routing reports on the others too (will only know when I start the fixing phase), I'm contemplating treating all you guys as Beta testers and I release all the fixes as I have them ready.
