I noticed this too.. I tried logging out and back in again but it didn’t make a difference. :(

Hopefully it will spontaneously come back. :|

We can still do a cloud save though so at least they didn’t change that...

Have you tried logging a ticket?

Same here. I‘ll wait a few days and see if it‘s get sorted.

The steps I tried so far:
1. Force close/open the game - no success
2. Logged out GC
3. Soft reset
4. Logged in to GC while opening the game
Still no success.

Same. They better come back, otherwise this game is useless because copious numbers of SPs are needed for everything and the only way to get them without paying is to visit neighbors.

There are some comments from people on the sims FreePlay Facebook page that their neighbours are missing. So they should be aware of the problem.

I also saw player comments on Facebook about a past update that got rid of inactive accounts. This seems to be a new problem with this update, but I thought I’d test that possibility. I asked a Game Center friend who hasn’t played in ages to log into their account for a bit. I show up as a neighbor for them but they have an older device and can’t update to current version. Unfortunately, they still don’t show up for me, even after being active today. I’ve submitted a ticket so we’ll see what they say.

I don‘t think it has to do with inactive players. In that case there should be at least a few neighbors left who are still playing. And my Party Boat is empty although some of my neighbors are still playing and have the latest iOS and the current game version.
