Title: Awesome Mod Storymode population question. Post by: Ubercuber on 2021 August 07, 13:14:06 I see that you can decide population in the configuration tool. Does that only effect actual residents with houses (like if you reach the limit it wont move in / create more sims) OR does it include homeless sims as well (service/role sims etc)?

It includes all sims instantiated in the world for any reason. It does not include homeless sims who are deinstantiated, such as service sims.Title: Re: Awesome Mod Storymode population question.

I used master controller to check population, and found that I had 61 Service sims. So those are not counted as they only exist when the game calls on them by for example calling a service and what not? Am I understanding it correctly?

I get better results by leaving the population set at zero and just concern myself with my sims.
ETA: Of course it is related to what your computer can handle. Title: Re: Awesome Mod Storymode population question.

I have it at 150 and seems to run fairly well. About 70 residents, 50 service sims, and 30 homeless) What would happen if I put it at 0??? Title: Re: Awesome Mod Storymode population question.
