UFO's in Neighborhood view

THANKS THIS IS GREAT

(I swear I was NOT drunk or under the influence of narcotics of any variety when I saw this..  and I did a quick search before posting).

With OFB came the flying pig..  Is it possible that UFO's came with Pets?  I was decorating a custom 'hood a couple of weeks ago and a UFO flew straight by the camera.  I was so freaked out I wasn't quick enough to get a pic.  I waited to see if I got another appearance but nothing, so I reloaded the game; still nothing, and in the two weeks since I haven't encountered it either, but it has been bugging me.  Has anyone seen this, or heard any rumours about it?

Yea, we talked about them a while ago here -- UFOs did appear with Pets.  The best way to get one to show up seems to be to add one or more nuclear cooling towers to a hood or a crashed UFO (like in Strangetown), though I'm pretty sure I've seen one in my Pleasantview where I have neither decoration.

Mine appeared right after I had placed stone henge, flew over it twice, then stopped to scan it, and disappeared.
It think it'll scan anything big enough.

Hmm, didn't think of the stonehenge -- I haven't used the pets one since I have a better one that Numenor did ages ago.  But yea, it looks like placing any of the new hood decorations from pets may trigger a visit.

I did do a search..I swear!  I am sooo happy to find out that I wasn't seeing things.  Cheesy  I had a feeling it was something to do with Stonehenge..there weren't that many new decorations and Stonehenge and the temples have always been associated with the Unknown, so it made sense.

UFOs love the cooling tower for some reason. I've seen UFOs come out of them at odd moments.

I happened to remember the title of the old thread, which gave me a serious advantage when searching for it.  "Easter Egg" gives far fewer hits than "UFO".
