The carry puppy and kitten options have changed. They are now a 4 second task instead of not timed.

They seem to have further limited aerobics mats. Game says I can’t have more than 14, where previous limit was 15. And I can’t remove the one at the health hub - that’s the extra one. Looks like I may have to rethink how some of my Sims grind for LPs.

Haven't they always been like this? It has been for me anyway for a while.

I also wondered what’s going on with the mats as we can use 15 including the one at the Health Hub. Then I found one on the Yacht, and after removing that one my Sims could use them again :)

Thank you, Erin! I never noticed the one on the yacht - that was it. Still, I switched that group of grinders to chocolatier and switched out fashion design for aerobics with a smaller group.

Since January 24th there are some new paintings in Home Store. They are hand drawn by the developers that work on The Sims FreePlay.

I’m not sure if this is new or not…this is the first time I’ve seen the yoga instructor come into the lot instead of being right out by the road.

When I went through the pregnancy events in my town the yoga instructors didn’t come into the garden or house and when starting one lately they were near the postbox like always. Maybe they come in randomly now.

Prior to this update, I never saw my pets autonomously going up staircases (only down), and never saw a cat use a spiral staircase at all. Now all my pets are running all over the place, especially one cat who’s wearing out a spiral staircase to periodically attack a Christmas tree.

I saw in the Online Store a few days ago one of the packs from the Pregnancy Events in there for a limited time. Wonder if that's how they'll start offering us the packs that we've missed out on. Be a little disappointing if that's the case.
